Talk:Four Emperors

Now, just so I know... are we going to use "Four Pirate Emperors", or are we going to use "Yonkou"? It's probably best to make sure now, so we don't have to fix stuff like we did on Wikipedia for the Shichibukai... I'd like fix up the article about the three powers, and make a category for the emperors, but I need to know what name to use. XD --Murasaki 06:44, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Hancock
I don't think "Hancock" is one of 4 emperors. Althoug the English scanlation use the word "Emperor" call Handcock as "Pirate Empress Hancock" but the truth is her name in Japanese doesn't use Kanji 皇 (Yonkou) that meaning Emperor in 4 emperor but Hadcock's name use 女帝 and 帝 that can meaning "emperor" but it just "foreign emperors" and sometime meaning "woman leader." I think it's not the same to 皇 (Yonkou).--JGV 19:18, 25 May 2008 (UTC)

"Emperors"
I know this is the popular translation, but Yonkou doesn't mean Four Emperors. It means Four Princes/Lords/Warlords/Daimyos. All of which are clearly below the rank of king. The most appropriate name would be Warlords or Daimyos, as this is supposed to be like the old Feudal Era system which seems to pop up in almost every anime.


 * I'm not good with Japanese so I'll take you for your word, even so, I think the word warlord was the closest translation, but it's already used in the sichibukai, so it wouldn't sound nice for 2 of the 3 great powers to have a recurrent word in their translated names. Not that I'm sure, it's just my take on the matter... Realdraickin

Why the recent fourth listing of the last Yonkou?
Why did the fourth listing at the bottom of the page finally get listed and why did it take so long to list? Was it because the chapter 515 and the possibility of Boa Hancock? Whats the deal with that?


 * Three things:


 * It shouldn't be on there, only list who we know
 * You shouldn't be complaining about something like that.
 * It doesn't matter how long it takes.


 * Pretty much all I can say. --One-Winged Hawk 10:06, 24 September 2008 (UTC)


 * I wasn't complaining about it I was just making a point to figure out why a forth has been listed. That is all. Reason 1 that you gave was the main point I was talking about.

 * You'll have to excuse me there... Woke up a little grouchie due to illness. :-(


 * I don't see the point in the "unknown". Yeah there a lot of "Hancock 4 Yonkou" fans disappointed today I note. But we shouldn't list the unconfirmed, only the confirmed. I guess you could say its silly but its best to leave it off and wait like we did with the Shichibukai and others. :-/ --One-Winged Hawk 21:38, 24 September 2008 (UTC)

I think Unknown should be listed. There's really no point in not having it. Drunk Samurai 20:51, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, but I think we should check
When I look in Yonkou page, the list of Yonkou look like 1. "Red-Haired" Shanks 1. Edward Newgate ("Whitebeard") 1. Kaidou 1. Unknown I checked it code, but...

#"Red-Haired" Shanks

#1. Edward Newgate ("Whitebeard")

#1. Kaidou

#1. Unknown

Is that program error?RobertTheodore 06:18, 15 January 2009 (UTC)


 * Seems okay from my end. The list looks like this on my computer:


 * 1. "Red-Haired" Shanks
 * 2. Edward Newgate ("Whitebeard")
 * 3. Kaidou
 * 4. Unknown


 * It maybe something else if its showing something different on yours.Mugiwara Franky 06:24, 15 January 2009 (UTC)

So guys...
Should we rename this article to "Sankou"?--24.255.171.220 15:11, March 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Though he is dead, WB is still a Yonkou even in death. Plus we'veyet to hear them be called that.  The name being dropped is the most important thing we need remember. One-Winged Hawk 15:45, March 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * It's similar to the shichibukai after Crocodile lost his title. The name remained although there were just 6 of them for a while. I think that either somebody will replace Whitebeard as a yonkou or they will be renamed. But until this change will become official, we must keep the name. El Chupacabra 16:20, March 4, 2010 (UTC)
