Series' Title[edit]

I'd like some input on whether the series here on Wikipedia should be titled "Moribito" (Japanese) or "Guardian" (English). Now under usual circumstances, the U.S. publisher will choose to use a translated version of the original title as the official title in that region. However Moribito is a somewhat different situation, yes, the title translates to Guardian, but Scholastic (the series' U.S. publisher) has made an obvious, conscious decision to market the series under it's original, distinctive title of Moribito. Note the titling of the U.S. versions as Moribito: Guardian of the Spirit and Moribito II: Guardian of the Darkness with Moribito used to distinguish the series and not Guardian. Equally requiring consideration is the fact that Scholastic's very own website profile for the series clearly labels the series as Moribito. In staying with Wikipedia's official nature, I will change the title of the series to reflect its official English title and not translated Japanese title. If you feel this is disagreeable, provide your reasoning here and please do not simply change the series title without providing your reasoning. SeiADP (talk) 23:57, 20 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Bunkoban Still Being Published?[edit]

I have no knowledge of Japanese or resources from which I could find such information. Are new bunkoban versions stil being published in Japan past Yume? For the time being, I've put the bunkoban publishing date range as 2003-2007 reflecting what information is availible in the article.SeiADP (talk) 07:06, 21 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, but there's no harm in answering a simple question on a low volume talk page instead of [Removed]. Doceirias (talk) 09:52, 11 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
