Kikou Shoujo wa Kizutsukanai:Guidelines

From Baka-Tsuki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

Guidelines:
[edit]

  • No honorifics( Means no -san, -kun, -chan, -sama, etc etc. UMD is able to convey the relationships between characters without the use of honorifics, and since its set in England most of the characters totally omit honorifics anyway.)
  • Editors, please try to keep the text in British English. The series is set in England, so I find it appropriate to leave it as such.
  • Editors should ensure that everything but the characters thoughts is kept in past tense.


Basic terminology:
[edit]


自動人形- Automata/Automaton
機巧人形- Automata/Automaton (I know they're slightly different, but for sanity's sake I'm just going to label Machine Dolls the same as Automata. Nothing is lost in the translation, and automata sounds better.)

機巧- Machine
魔力- Magic Energy
魔術- Magic Art(s)
