    I like how some entries have an image and then they have the exact same image again but taken from a different scan.

    Also want any help with this? (not money you can't have my money)

    If I have a complaint, it's that McJon01 continues the terrible tradition of calling oni demons. I don't even know where mirror moon got that terrible idea. If you think people's heads are going to explode by learning about foreign folklore at least call them ogres like everyone has for the past century since they possess actual similarities with ogres.

    I call oni oni. I call mixed bloods demon hybrids, because mixed blood started sounding pretty racist, but I'm not going to call them oni hybrids when they aren't all mixed with oni.

    I also went with devil for akuma and demon for ma, just so there would be less examples of everything being demons.

    Because we live in a magical era where people have played enough video games to know what an oni is.

    People also know what domo arigato means. Are you going to just not translate that too?

    Eh, it's probably okay to leave oni as oni for the same reason we can say chupacabra instead of goatsucker or sasquatch instead of whatever sasquatch means.

    Mostly, if it has an English Wikipedia page it's fine how it is, unless I don't like it. That's my motto.

    I feel there still has to be a better word to use for half bloods than demon. Because no one is going to get there's a difference between demon and devil without having that explained to them.

    Well anyone who has ever played DnD is going to treat those two as different.

    Yeah I agree with that, as a avid gamer of D&D video games like Baldur's Gate and Icewind Dale...
    There's really a big difference between Devils and Demons, yeah they're both evil in a different level. Devils being lawful Evil and Demons are Chaotic Evil.

    I mean, it basically comes down to how you want to translate plain 魔, since Red Demon God makes it pretty clear that "mixed blood" is referring to people who have some kind of 魔 or another in their lineage. I was thinking monster for a bit but that didn't feel as nice. Demon is way more distortion in nature-y.

    Except these two things aren't two sides of the same coin that wage eternal war for basic cosmological reasons. And for everyone who hasn't, demons and devils are the same thing (hence the terms being interchangeable in Digital Devil Saga).

    Funnily enough this is actually true in D&D.

    I'm not sure I understand your statement so I'm just going to clarify that in Dungeons and Dragons demons and devils are both evil outsiders that fight each other because law and chaos oppose each other just as hard as good and evil and in Nasuland what McJon01 is calling demon hybrids are in no way related to what he is calling devils and they don't fight each other.

    Probably because it isn't D&D.
