Talk:Imu

Why does the article keep referring to Im as "they", as if there's more than one?Strawhatmsd (talk) 22:12, June 17, 2018 (UTC)
 * Apparently, the gender is hard to tell, so everyone is using gender-neutral terms for the moment.Observer Supreme 22:14, June 17, 2018 (UTC)

Trivia FMA
Is it really necessary to mention Full metal alchemist. It's not that unique for an antagonist to be interested in the protagonist, to rule behind the scenes, etc.... Seems kind of farfechted.

Oh it's gone now, okay. 193.202.17.249 08:44, June 19, 2018 (UTC)

Imu
the official translation translates his name as "Imu" since both im and imu is a possible transscription, and the official english source trsnscribes it to imu, i think we should move the page CharlotteSmoothie (talk) 00:26, June 21, 2018 (UTC)

It doesn't have any more weight just because it's official. Since there's an Im in real-world mythology, that's what I'd go with at least. Kaido King of the Beasts (talk) 02:53, June 21, 2018 (UTC)

I doubt the mythology thing is an actual reference, the giant's name is spelled イーム in Japanese rather than イム and it's a very minor mythological figure. 07:46, June 21, 2018 (UTC)

Imu is more correct due to how Japanese works. Also Oda only does giant myth references with actual giants. SeaTerror (talk) 03:55, June 22, 2018 (UTC)

We should really move this since Imu is correct. SeaTerror (talk) 21:51, October 3, 2018 (UTC)

Trivia
IMO this is 100% a reference to the ancient Canaanite sea god Ym which would go perfectly with イム. I've edited the Trivia page to reflect this. It's a great enemy in the mythos, possibly the greatest, and has a palace in the depths of the ocean. it's a fantastic name. 2605:A601:A200:E59:B84A:FDB8:A895:11DF 19:51, October 3, 2018 (UTC)
