Soul Removal's new name
Is there any way we can make Absorption Soul Technique sound more...English? Absorbing Soul Technique? General Awesomo 22:40, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * ...what? Do you want a translation of the Japanese name or an English name based on that translation? Those names aren't actually supposed to sound English at all, they're just representing the Japanese word in another language. Furthermore, the same Kanji is translated as "Absorbtion" here, that's why I translated it that way. Oh and if you want me to answer you on your talk page, I suggest you put a link to it in your signature. Seelentau 愛議 22:53, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * I was just wondering if 吸 could also be translated as "absorbing" or other variants of the word. So that maybe we can make a better sounding name.


 * Also, I don't see the point of having a discussion being split up by two user talk pages. Why do some users do that? General Awesomo 22:59, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * It could, but as I said, this isn't about good sounding or so. People do that because it's hard to keep track of the discussion. Seelentau 愛議 23:03, June 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * I'm just saying if we can make it sound a little better without disrupting the translation, it wouldn't hurt. But I'll respect this decision, and I'll try to get used to this way of discussing. General Awesomo (talk) 23:26, June 16, 2013 (UTC)

Hashirama recognize Rinne Tensei?--Elveonora (talk) 13:20, July 4, 2013 (UTC)

Wow, didn't expect that one ^_ a response I mean, but better late than never I guess, thanks. Can you provide some evidence for the Shinigami not being an entity? A line from databook/manga that suggest either way would be nice, unless there's none and it's just your sentiment :P --Elveonora (talk) 18:16, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

And that's quite logical, but sealing techniques seal/unseal stuff, not create ghosts. Also the "only the summoner and the ones getting sealed can see it" is fishy, doubtful it's just chakra manifested. Not to mention if it were true then once the technique ends it ceases to exist, the contents would have been gone for good. And yet, Shinigami summoned by Oro contained souls of Hokages. So if it isn't real, where exactly did the souls go once the Shinigami vanished, eh? :) Just a speculation on my part, but deities are so-said Omnipresent. There's no need to summon it, death is always present ;D--Elveonora (talk) 18:24, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

You said that. A mask indeed was used to summon it, how do you explain that? The mask most likely was created long before Minato and Hiruzen used the technique. So since as you say it's the same Shinigami, then in one form or another it must be real and reside somewhere.--Elveonora (talk) 18:33, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Come on, not that again, the "new NB" I mean ^_ it's more people that make up the editing community, of course there are going to be disagreements. Also I don't see speculation getting a pass, quite the opposite, as of late more and more people are against "speculation" or even well based "evidence"--Elveonora (talk) 18:55, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Yes, do you like my profile picture? :D jk. Well, you might have missed the Shima&Fukasaku age stuff, nothing to add to that? Other than that, nothing I worry my brain about currently. But if anything shows up, I know where to find a reliable guy :D thanks--Elveonora (talk) 19:08, July 23, 2013 (UTC)

Translation clarification
Hey could you have a look on the Byakugan and Shukaku's talkpages at the most recent discussions. We need a bit of clarification on what exactly Kakashi says about the dōjutsu and whether or not Gaara called the beast the reincarnation of a [depraved] priest. There are links to the raws for your convenience.--Cerez 365 ™(talk) 20:49, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks! --Cerez 365 ™(talk) 22:00, July 8, 2013 (UTC)

I believe I might have asked this already (not so certain atm) but what's your feedback on the whole "shinigami and jashin = characters?" thing? In my opinion, the latter may not even be real, so shouldn't be treated as one, but the former is. And I have to ask, do the databooks/manga suggest that the Shinigami is an entity or otherwise? Cerez's opinion is it to be just a manifestation of a technique or something. I ask because I presume yours to have read them quite a few times and having both vast material and knowledge of Japanese at your disposal, maybe you could help.--Elveonora (talk) 16:45, July 14, 2013 (UTC)

Hello! Since I think that the title for the "Jinchūriki Forms" page is kind of plain, I was planning to rename it, and for that I'd like you to translate Deidara's thoughts in the last panel of Chapter 277, page 7. Unfortunately I don't know if there are any available raws of that, but if that were the case, please do!--JOA20 (talk) 19:11, August 13, 2013 (UTC)


 * The page is called that because it's a general consolidation article that covers the transformations that ALL jinchuriki undertake. It's not supposed to have some awesome name, it was done so we didn't have a line of pages called "X Jinchuriki Forms", where X is some jinchuriki's name. --Speysider Talk Page 19:14, August 13, 2013 (UTC)
 * You're right, but still, I kind of rememeber Deidara saying "is that...the jinchūriki metamorphosis?" in that page, so I wanted to see the literal translation and hopefully get a kind of "official name"...--JOA20 (talk) 12:11, August 14, 2013 (UTC)
 * I have access to all the raws, so that's not the problem. But he simply says "Jinchūriki no...", leaving the sentence incomplete. Seelentau 愛議 14:46, August 14, 2013 (UTC)

tailed beast extraction?: road to ninja edition

Chapter #643 translation
Hi senpai, the raws are out today. Could you provide the the actual translation of the chapter title and this jutsu? The barrier jutsu I think won't be changed, right? Also, could you translate what Obito said about if he lost his ability for using Kamui after becoming the Jūbi's jinchūriki? Thanks so much. http://i1283.photobucket.com/albums/a553/anaspet06/Shakhmootssign_zps2a261e68.png (Contact) 16:16, August 23, 2013 (UTC)

tablet stuff
Hello, could you please translate best of your ability what does Madara say when quoting the tablet during his Hash chit chat? Thanks.--Elveonora (talk) 08:49, August 25, 2013 (UTC)

For the movie, circa 1 hour 33 minutes, just right after Obito possesses Menma. Later it can be seen that Kurama is getting extracted from Naruto and the moment he is interrupted by Sakura, it cancels (around 1 hour 34) Also I want your opinion on Yin Kurama = Black Kurama. Even in the movie Naruto comments something like "he can use the full extent of that part of the chakra" (referring to Kurama's) For the tablet, it's either chapter 625 or around... in the Naka Shrine when Hash talks about Madara becoming 2nd Hokage--Elveonora (talk) 21:47, August 27, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks, I was wondering how could Madara come up with Moon Eye Plan by reading that specific line. For the movie dialogue, so can you confirm it indeed suggests the whole Doujutsu thing was done on Kushina and extracted Kurama from her? Actually the very same thing can be seen in the manga, people just assumed those pillars are chains were responsible for the extraction rather than his eye--Elveonora (talk) 21:54, August 28, 2013 (UTC)

Sasuke's Tsukuyomi
Hello, Seelentau. Could you please give me the exact translation of what Danzō said about Sasuke's genjutsu in their battle?

 * Then the only thing which states Sasuke can use Tsukuyomi is that page in the Third Databook about Susanoo being the union of Tsukuyomi and Amaterasu, huh. Still, thanks for the answer. Bye bye!--JOA20 (talk) 10:22, August 31, 2013 (UTC)

Naruto's chakra levels
Be that kind, were they stated to be twice of Kakashi's or four time Kakashi's?--Elveonora (talk) 22:48, August 29, 2013 (UTC)

Thanks. There may be a misinterpretation on either side. Not 100% certain but it seems SuperSaiyan believes that Naruto's own chakra is 100 times larger than Kakashi's and it was only twice because most of his was used to suppress Kurama's. The general understanding is that the 100 times part was with Kurama's included.--Elveonora (talk) 23:19, August 29, 2013 (UTC)

Translation Request
Hey, I know you've been bombarded with these lately, but I think I found something that can settle our little Chakra Receiver debate. Can you please translate Chapter 569, specifically what Obito is thinking about the chakra receivers as Naruto tries to pull them out of Son Gokū? In the MangaPanda version of the chapter, its page 10, but with all that fan art they usually put in front of it, I'm not sure what page it'd be in the RAWs. Please and thank you. =) ~ Ten Tailed Fox 00:11, August 30, 2013 (UTC)

Quick Question
Hi, Seelentau-san! :) I'm really sorry to bother you, but I wanted to ask a quick question: How would you translate this ハンナ アナフェローズ? Hannah Annafellows or Anafeloz? I'm kinda having a...dispute about how this name is translated, and I don't know a lot of translators. I was hoping that you might help shed some light on the translation of the name.-- Ninja Sheik  16:02, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

Oh, geez... I'm sorry, I kinda forgot to explain something since I posted my first message to you during school and I was in a rush. The BB Wikia is not all that, shall we say, reliable when it comes to naming (and other things). Really, the wikia, in opinion, sucks. A LOT. But it's good for the basic outline for the series. Thing is, the BB Wikia isn't like us, the Narutopedia. They are not active, do not have their resident translator (well, they have one person, but she is away most of the time like everyone else there), and they depend too heavily on fan translations. Before the series was licensed by FUNimation, the series, like many others, was fansubbed, which is where they got "Anafeloz" (because the series was never officially licensed before FUNimation picked it) since the wiki has been around even before FUNimation picked it up and subbed it. Therefore, I honestly don't think her surname is "Anafeloz", but "Annafellows". I know Google Translator isn't 1000% accurate, but when put her kanji characters in, "Annafellows" is what came up and FUNimation used this for both its English subbed and dubbed. However, working a wikia for so long, I looked into "Anafeloz". I know us wikia users depend on fan translations as well, but unlike the BB Wikia, we're active and also have a combination of Viz translations and our own on this wiki. Overall, the BB Wiki is really horrible, misleading, and looking at it makes me want to pull my hair out and slap myself silly for misleading the other fans on what's true or not (hence the reason why I don't edit there). And besides, I know FUNimation and how good they are. I have several of their anime on DVDs (gotta support my favorite shows and industry, you know! :D), and I trust them a HECK LOT MORE than any fan translations. They are good. REALLY GOOD at translating. They haven't given me a reason to be disappointed yet, after all.

Okay, sorry, I'm babbling. So, let me restate my question: Disregarding the BB Wikia, how would YOU translate Hannah's surname? I'm asking for your personal opinion, Seelentau-san. Oh, if by chance you decide on "Anafeloz", can you pretty please explain to me how you come to that decision? :3-- Ninja Sheik  22:08, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

I see... Thank you very much for the help! :) I'm very sorry to have come to you about this, though. ^__^; I know you're busy with translating stuff for the Narutopedia and matters in RL, so yeah... Please accept my heartfelt apologies. *bows* Thanks again!-- Ninja Sheik  22:44, November 13, 2013 (UTC)

Translation request (chapter 653)
Hello, Seelentau-san! I don't know if it has already been clarified, but just in case could you control the raws about what Naruto says in regards to Obito's parents?

Shell Spear
For a while now, I've had the kanji for the technique, but I've never managed translating it well, partially due to not quite understanding the terms in English as well. From Storm 3, the technique's name is 甲櫓落し/Kōro Otoshi. The best I could come up with was "Shell Oar/Sculling Fall". I'm not entirely sure of what is the best way to translate the middle. My guess is that it might be a reference of the movement of the rolling or the spikes, or maybe a word play on 航路. Any idea? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 02:24, December 7, 2013 (UTC)
 * Really? I find it rather odd that 櫓 wouldn't use any of its marine related translations. I mean, between tangorin and wiktionary, I found three translations, the two I pointed out above, and row. I say this because the guessing I made regarding the pronunciation (ro instead of yagura) pointed more towards these translations. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 12:15, December 8, 2013 (UTC)

Wouldn't it require for Shisui or anyone else capable of using Kotoamatsukami to have had Hash Senju cells in the first place in order to have determined its requirement for the shortened interval of usage?--Elveonora (talk) 18:41, December 9, 2013 (UTC)

Kakashi's ANBU special anime arc
Hi Seelentau-senpai and how are you? It's been a long time ... I have a request please, could you provide me with the full translation of this topic that related to the upcoming anime arc about Kakashi in his ANBU era from Shōnen Jump's website? I want to add it on the article. Thanks — Shakhmoot  (Talk) 08:41, December 10, 2013 (UTC)

Flower Ninja Art: Maximum Cutting

Desert Layered Imperial Funeral Seal
I'm kind of perplexed about whether it's a collaboration technique. Gaara's hand was trembling because of the effort put into restraining Madara with the sand from the Wind Release: Sand Scattering Bullets, not because he was actively taking part in sealing Madara along with Shukaku.--JOA20 (talk) 22:24, December 13, 2013 (UTC)

Making use of this section, could you give some insight on something? I brought up the issue about creating a separate page for Shukaku's juinjutsu in this week's chapter talk page. What exactly does Shukaku say when it mentions the cursed seal and the sand, just after the panel Gaara and the name of the jutsu appear? Does it call the entire construct, both the sand the the juinjutsu pattern, or is it a name specifically for the juinjutsu pattern? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 16:06, December 14, 2013 (UTC)

chakra color
To my limited knowledge, it varies from person to person, relatives being more likely to have the same. Cerez disagrees, believing it's the same for most, ignoring differently colored Susanooos and Byakugan having noted colors of chakra, among other instances, so I would like to know which of us is mistaken.--Elveonora (talk) 14:56, December 16, 2013 (UTC)


 * Just gonna throw this out here, unless I am also mistaken, chakra has always only been yellow in the manga (blue in anime) or demon red. I'm not sure why Susanoo has different colors but the only colors that have been mentioned in manga was yellow and red.--TheUltimate3 Allied Shinobi Forces Symbol.svg (talk) 16:43, December 16, 2013 (UTC)

How about when Ao recognised shisui's chakra colour? I know it's usually shown as blue, but these things confuse me. Neji of the gentle fist (talk) 22:35, December 16, 2013 (UTC)
 * err, I don't really know about the colour of chakra. Jiraiya once said that Naruto should imagine his own chakra as yellow and the fox's chakra as red. Going from there, Kishi apparently decided to make these the official colours of normal and beast chakra. So what Ulti said is correct. Now regarding Shisui's chakra, I don't have access to the raw right now, but the translation should be correct. It seems that Ao recognized Shisui's chakra colour, but that doesn't mean that it's different from any other colour. Maybe it's yin-yang ratio differs or so, dunno. Susanoo is made of the user's life force, so maybe that's the reason for the different colouring? Seelentau 愛議 09:21, December 17, 2013 (UTC)

tb question
I've been wondering for a while, in the anime, sometime it seems that the TB are really talking, other times, just weirdly opening their mouths and somehow telepathically communicating instead? The anime screwed my brain, now I'm not sure if they are capable of speech just like humans, if they make animal noises and only their jinchuuriki understand that or if they communicate with their minds ._.--Elveonora (talk) 16:13, December 25, 2013 (UTC)

Was that in manga too? I ask because I don't recall and in the anime, they keep switching between telepathy and actual speech or mixing it. I mean, why would they even open their mouths in the first place if they weren't using them?--Elveonora (talk) 16:58, December 25, 2013 (UTC)

Kabuto stuff
it's kinda nonsense for Orochimaru to have left Akatsuki 6 years aNB but for Kabuto to have met with Sasori 10-11 years aNB... weren't they in and out together? Also I still disagree that Kabuto left Konoha 3 years aNB, that would have made him 10 then and by the time he did leave, it was 5 years since he had been at the orphanage. He was there for 3 years, meaning he would have had to have been 2 years old when taken by them, that's nonsense.--Elveonora (talk) 18:45, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

I thought that the meeting that had occurred having been mentioned in chapter 289 was the same one as shown in chapter 584 and in that one Orochimaru is there.--Elveonora (talk) 19:42, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Then why to show Kabuto and Orochimaru with Sasori in the middle and on the next page the meeting? ;0--Elveonora (talk) 22:01, January 2, 2014 (UTC)

Re: 1010 (haha, get it?)
You can see the movement lines when Tenten waves the fan and later on she is exhausted from using the fan, but the best way to tell it wasn't Asuma's technique that destroyed the lightning mask is the location. Tenten is fighting the mask on the water, she's at sea level. Ino-Shika-Chō are fighting on one of those rock plateaus, you can tell they're standing on rock. That rock plateau is much higher than sea level. There's also the issue with direction. The technique that destroyed the mask was cast from the sea towards the rock formations. Tenten's position in the two panels on that page is the same, and in the second one, where you can see more of the background, you can see that the top of the rock formations to the right are higher, meaning they're closer, so the jutsu that the destroyed the mask went from the sea towards the rock formations. The Asuma fight on the other hand, they're on the ledges of the rock formations. The wall behind them is continuous, so they're fighting along the ledge, like along a step of a stair. Asuma's technique goes along that ledge, instead of going toward the wall. The directions in which both techniques blow are perpendicular between themselves.

Hiya!
Sorry to bother you, Seelntau-san! :) You see, I'm going to start my second semester in college on Monday, and I've signed up for a Japanese course. Yesterday night, my sensei sent us (her students) an email, notifying us that she was posted the course materials and etc cetera online. Anyway, as I was looking at them, I decided that, as the wiki's resident translator, you might have some words of wisdom to share with me? ^_^ I'm really nervous about taking the course, even though I knew it was going to be hard. Telling the difference between the Japanese characters is what I'm worried about the most. So, if it isn't too much trouble, can you please give some advice on preparing to learn Japanese as a beginner?-- Ninja Sheik  18:55, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

Yay~! Thank you, Seelentau-san! :D Sure, I don't mind showing you some the course materails. But I need to send it via email. Course work is posted online, and only students can access it through documents. I can't post it here since it'd be too long. Second semester hasn't started yet, like I said, so I don't really need to show it to you right away. According to the syllabus, the first thing we're going to be working on is "Greetings" and learn about the Japanese Writing System. Sensei wants us to practice with writing in hiragana characters first. She also says that she'll be giving us workbooks and textbooks to use for homework, so I'm going to get a lot of practice in. I hope I can come to you whenever I need help. :) Which might be often, just to let you know. ^ _ ^;-- Ninja Sheik  19:54, January 8, 2014 (UTC)

I have a proposal
I have the Herobook downloaded. It is missing on this website and I believe there is NOT any full translations of it. If I uploaded the book, would you mind making a page on the wiki and translating everything?? It is only 11 pages long btw. ShounenSuki himself said it was indeed canon all the way and should be added to the wiki fully translated years ago. Let me know what you think ok? ItachiWasAHero (talk) 19:22, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

some of the dialogue
Any idea what Zetsu meant by insides being good? Also Madara about nurturing a new eye referred to Sasuke, presumably? I get it he wants his eye, although I don't get what he meant by wondering if it will stick around or not--Elveonora (talk) 14:27, January 15, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks. And you know how the Uchiha men are... nothing shows affection of love better than a blade in the heart. Obviously, it's not the real Sasuke :-) Furthermore, perhaps it's just me looking too deep into the dialogue, but is it just me who finds it super weird that Madara completely ignored Sasuke until now and suddenly is interested in his existence? He even talks almost as if he had expected Sasuke's presence and role or something... maybe, just maybe... He is his REAL father 0_0 "star wars wannabe plot incoming" and the sole purpose for his conception was to raise the ultimate eyes, Eternal Mangekyou Byasharineggan, because Mikoto obviously was a Hyuga by blood and cheated with Madara on Fugaku, her eyes can be explained as lenses or a transplant. They all have eye fetish, mark my words! --Elveonora (talk) 14:34, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

I think Kishi didn't handle the whole awareness thing well. We aren't entirely sure what Sasuke knows and what he doesn't and when did he realize Tobi isn't Madara and if he had suspected so. The dialogue would suggest from Jugo, but after he said that, Sasuke got this weird Itachi flashback completely unrelated to the said revelation. We didn't get any reaction or opinion from him on "Madara"/Tobi being Obito and we don't even know if he knows who Obito is. Same for Madara on Sasuke... it seems Madara knows about the Uchiha Clan Massacre... was Obito acting on Madara's death wish? Or did Zetsu have Madara up to date telepathically on the *** that has happened? Too many unknowns. I think Kishi leaves too many ends open to be left unanswered and for our minds to be filled out and changes his priorities often... also I find it stupid that Itachi, genius of geniuses, kid already with adult Kage-like mentality ate Obito's "I'm Madara" deceit--Elveonora (talk) 15:09, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

maybe just over your dead body
But... do you recall the anime instance of Hashirama deflecting Hiruzen's Katon projectiles? Wouldn't that by any means count as Gentle Fist?--Elveonora (talk) 14:50, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFOen2IiAA0&t=2m43s --Elveonora (talk) 15:18, January 18, 2014 (UTC)

What else? Deflecting projectiles with chakra or something through fingers is tenketsu thingy ain't it?--Elveonora (talk) 18:58, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

No, it was lightning chakra gathered as a shield/barrier and wasn't used as a fighting style, so no. A Gentle Fist user has to more or less literary shoot/expel (not just gather, otherwise 90% of ninja would be users) chakra from tenketsu on his/her palms or from fingers. I know anime-only stuff ain't canon in 99% of cases, so it may be pointless giving it more relevance and trying to make sense of those things, but we generally don't ignore them. Hell we have Ball of Light Technique while we could just mention in his article: "in the anime, Yamato used chakra to create an orb to illuminate a room" What Hashirama did in that episode was as close to Gentle Fist as it could get, save the fact which you can use to argue against it that he didn't use it on Hiruzen to block his pathways and shi*--Elveonora (talk) 19:20, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Hanzō
I'm creating articles on video game jutsu, and I want to cross Hanzō off the list, but I have a few questions about his jutsu. Most of them follow the format "刃鎌の舞・***の刃", the first part, which I'm translating as "Dance of the Sickle Blade", I can't quite see what the pronunciation of the first two kanji would be. There are three ways I can see them each being pronounced (Jin/Nin/Ha and Ren/Ken/Kama), meaning I have nine options of how to list them. I've able to clear my doubts before with Google Translate, which suggests "Hakama", but I'm playing it safe and asking your opinion. Also in those jutsu, what would be the most appropriate pronunciation, "jin" or "yaiba"? Finally, there's a technique of his called 鎖牢爆. I'm translating that as "Chained Prison Explosion", but would it be "Sarōbaku" or "Kusari Rōbaku"? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 17:51, January 20, 2014 (UTC)
 * And on a slightly similar note, there this one technique of Mifune that I don't know how to translate. English game calls it "Rare Sword", Japanese is 逸刀, Ittō. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 18:03, January 20, 2014 (UTC)

Hallo. Ich habe gesehen, dass du hier für die japanischen Übersetzungen zuständig bist. Darf ich fragen, wo und wie du so gut Japanisch gelernt hast? Studierst du Japanologie, oder kommt deine Familie selbst aus Japan? Ich frage, weil ich selber stark daran interessiert bin, Japanisch zu lernen.

2 things
"Does chakra contain DNA?" A recently brought up topic on narutoanswers which has caught my interest. Most people without even thinking would say no and such an answer was given, but how then to explain Tailed Beasts and individuals like Orochimaru? Each time he transfers his soul into a host and once the body's time span is over, a brand new body of his gets created from within as he comes out the mouth. (creepy) Same for him emerging in physical form Sasuke.

Another thing is I believe I might have found an instance of life force in effect. That's right, Edo Tensei. A living sacrifice is used for it. The unfortunate one gets his/her soul replaced with the revived one's. The sacrifices are dead as they can be once the technique is executed, soulless and their bodily functions ended. So if they are corpses animated with foreign souls, why can't the technique be used on already dead bodies? Simple, life force is what makes it possible in the first place and what powers the process. One's Own Life Reincarnation and Outer Path: Samsara of Heavenly Life Technique are evidence that life force is a separate thing from both soul and chakra. This could also explain why Orochimaru's host bodies start to reject him eventually, their life force runs out and that's why the bodies die. I speculate that had their life force not run out, they would have regained consciousness with their souls not leaving with Orochimaru.--Elveonora (talk) 20:48, January 21, 2014 (UTC)

I meant that his body died when he attempted to take over Sasuke, yet there it was from nowhere coming from him during his fight with Itachi, Oro transfers his soul to our knowledge. For TB DNA, well they have flesh and blood which are made of cells and DNA is inside of cells, in an anime filler (non-canon still, I know) Oro/Kabuto cloned Gyuki's horn I believe. But you are right, it's fiction we are talking about, I just thought it was a question that we can't answer with certainty so was wondering what you think, sorry for bothering :-I I also like to convince myself that even in fiction, when references to real-life are made, the authors knows how it works first before going into them ^_ --Elveonora (talk) 14:28, January 22, 2014 (UTC)
