Talk:Shion no Ō

Shion's Age

In the fan translation of the manga, Shion's age is given as four in the prologue (when her parents are killed), eleven (both directly and by saying it's seven years later) in chapter 1, and twelve (a year later) in chapter 2. Did the translation get it wrong, or is the age seven at slaughter a misstatement? —Quasirandom 03:16, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

No, I suppose the translations are correct since I have nothing to go against them. You can go ahead and make the changes in the article as you wish.--十八 03:34, 30 May 2007 (UTC)

Androgynous

I think this was misused in regards to Ayumi. Ayumi is clearly male, but cross dresses, which isn't the same thing as androgynous, which means being of both sexes, or indeterminate of one sex or the other, So I'm removing it, especially since (a spoiler) Ayumi gives up cross dressing later in the story. BTW, I don't think transvestite works either, since the cross dressing was with a purpose rather than for personal enjoyment or lifestyle.--Hitsuji Kinno (talk) 18:30, 18 February 2008 (UTC)

Well, he is kinda bishonen, which does include an element of androgyny. But your rewording is better, yes. —Quasirandom (talk) 18:53, 18 February 2008 (UTC)
