    Alright. That's an acceptable logic.

    Lizleihi Justica von Einzbern. Is this the consensus on proper romanization of the homunculus involved in the founding of the grail ritual or is it something else? This is how mirror moon translated it and what is used on Fuyuki, but I'm not sure if there is another more popular version.

Ciel stated that for simply being fantasy it had a strong sense of reality, so it seems it was just similar enough to the real world that it could pass as the real thing after Dust finished with the World Egg.

    For the priest, the golden princess was the one and only main heroine.
    Everyone else was unworthy of his respect, no matter how strong they were.

    It just seem like one of the worst possible examples you could have picked.

    Whatever you say. It clearly wasn't building block-sized or whatever no matter how hard you try to downplay this.

    Justicia's most popular. Justeaze was given in one of the CMs, but it's ugly and T-M's romanisations are generally suspect so we ignore that.

    Hey Dartz, ever hear of a thing called metaphor? Like, "this idea was the building block for my product" the idea is not literally a building block in size or any other facet.

    "When canon [bad romanisations] doesn't fit within the range of your competence, murder it"? The sarcastic insinuations still doesn't seem to me like it works. And as one who regularly uses the Roman alphabet, I rather think it falls more within my purview than Nasu's (though that's stretching purview a bit because it tends to be more about the authority you have over a thing).

    When canon doesn't fit into your range of understanding a thing, murder it.

    Yes, it fits. The only times you will see me doing a wrong thing is when it's intentional, aside from a few grammar errors that not even FSU cured.

    EDIT: wow, I can almost feel the storm coming.

    But I do understand it. Because I understand it, I give it the evaluation of 'ugly' and 'not a real name'.

    But Altria, Arturia, Barthomeloi, Edelfelt, and Justcreampie works :P

    From now on we should just force everyone to use the katakana names. Problem solved. And for anyone too lazy to look them up we can make a thread with all of them listed and sticky it.

    If someone swung a NP like Durandal against a Poly, what would happen?
