what chapter did zoro use a semi tranformation of asura

Asura or Ashura
Shouldn't it be romanized as Asura instead of Ashura?Videogamep (talk) 07:51, August 18, 2012 (UTC)

Read the romanization itself. SeaTerror (talk) 07:53, August 18, 2012 (UTC)

But shouldn't the name be romanized at the start? It's done for other attacks such as having gomu gomu no pistol instead of gomu gomu no pistoru.71.254.185.154 08:13, August 18, 2012 (UTC)

Agreed, the English word is Asura.

Well, the furigana for the technique are in katakana (アシュラ Ashura). It's usually convention on this wiki to write the English approximation of the katakana (eg Gomu Gomu no Pistol, Gatling and Red Hawk), and to write exactly as romanized when it's in hiragana.

Given that the term is more commonly written in English as "Asura", it should probably be spelled that way (although the pronunciation is still "Ashura", so it doesn't make much of a difference). 09:00, August 18, 2012 (UTC)
