Talk:Liquor Iron Ore

Name
Well, we're not calling it Wine Steel, thank fuck, but Liquor Iron Ore or Liquore is a harder decision. It's the literal translation against the intended joke. Thoughts, or should I just change it and be done with this?

I'm in favor of Liquore. The joke translates pretty well, might as well use it. 02:12, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

I'm not taking a side yet, but for precedent, we have Bananawani and Warusagi Birds. Both untranslated. 09:25, October 8, 2015 (UTC)

Who said the original word contains a joke? 14:16, October 9, 2015 (UTC)

I think he means the pun of combining Liquor and Ore 14:48, October 9, 2015 (UTC)

But who claimed that the original Japanese term had a pun? Klobis, Powermanga and Aohige have made no mention of such. 15:01, October 9, 2015 (UTC)

Might be a good idea to leave it in Japanese - the romanization is Kitetsu-kō (the hyphens and spaces might be different), but since Ki isn't a normal pronunciation for 酒 I'm thinking there's a relationship between the ore and Kitetsu (and his blades). It's just a theory at this point though, of course, so leaving it in English would be fine too. 104.238.32.60 07:57, October 10, 2015 (UTC)
