From what I understand, there's really no right way to spell the Romanized translation. I've seen four versions.

Tenjo Tenge (mainly used for the manga)
Tenjou Tenge (mainly used for the anime)
Tenjyo Tenge (also referred to for manga purposes)
and
Tenjho Tenge (also referred to for anime purposes)

Just saw episode 6... humm, animation definitely improved overall but there were still some still-shots here and there but there were decent variations of animation and still-shots so I can't really complain.(they're working on a budget ya know)

One of the better episodes of thisseries so far.

Saga Mask vs Nagi in fight 7! Look forward to it.

It's good that the guy that did Kazuma's voice in Scryed does Nagi's voice. It fits him perfectly.

Those that were disappointed with episode 5(everyone) should be happy 6 is much more watchable.

and i thought the joint of aoi and a-s would SPEED the subbing

aoi(^_^) = the speed
a-s = the good translator

both = fast and a great translation....well that didnt happen now did it?

oh well...at least they are continuing..and im lookin forward to ep 6

[Tsukiyomi]

i was pretty impressed with episode 5, it had some great stills and music combinations. Anyone wanna comment on how the heck maya and isuzu were able to fight in those dresses and platforms?! O_O daaaammmn...!

Watchin ep 6 raw as i speak! The dragon eye is too awesome, it preceives the past and future!... totally pwns the sharingan and byakugan!

[Holy Knight]

I just watched it. Episode 6 saves the day, well sort of.

[Shihbang]

If you guys like stills...ep6 probably won't disappoint. However, what I wanted was good animation, and what I got was more freeze frame lameness instead of real animated fights. Bummers.

Spoiler:

Yeah!!! Just finished watching Fight 7, which was pretty good. I must say that the animation is starting to grow on me. Hopefully the consistency will keep up with the latter episodes. For the manga readers, this one covers chapters 13, 14, and 15, so three chapters this time around. It apears that the anime is trying to catch up to the manga, but only time will tell. As for the the Fight itself....


This was mainly the battle between Nagi and Sagara. I liked the part where Sagara used his combination wrestling moves from a Rolling Turn, to a German Suplex, a Jumping PowerBomb, then the Scorpion Deathlock. I was like damn, that that had to hurt...but of course Nagi shook it off pretty well and used the The Forged Needle Attack to ko Sagara. It's funny to me though as Sagara had more muscle mass and Nagi is just a scrawny guy, but all he need was one punch. In any case, I like the animation through this part as each detail was closely follwed to the manga. Oh as Nagi and Maya were escaping, when he had her in his arms, he was slyly groping Maya's breasts!!! ^_^ I thought that was pretty funny as she wasn't paying too much attention to it, but commenting on how manly Nagi is becoming

Then we get a chance to see Aya and Shirou battle at the roof top where Aya is getting closer to using the "Power of the Eye" which show it's true colors in the next episode, which I imagine will be a definate blood-fest.

The part that I am somewhat disappointed in was the Locker room joke between Matasaka and Bob's girlfriend. Just didn't have the the same laughable "impact" as it did in the manga, but for those whom haven't read it, they'll get a kick out of it. Then just as they were about to leave, in approaches Mitsuomi and then fades away.....

Honestly, there's nothing for me to look forward to here as I've been reading the manga, so I really can't comment on the story too much, but the reason I'm watching though is to see how different it may turn out from the manga. This series is definately getting better and better as it goes along. I can't wait for it to reach the past arc!!!

Please don't ever mention groups that sub licensed anime.

Also, please don't whinge about anime not being subbed on your schedule instead of theirs.

Well, episode 6 of Tenjou Tenge "is" out on BitTorrent, but it's subbed in Portugese.

[dreamless]

episode 7 is so-so, but I love that scene where

Spoiler:

Nagi suddenly took Maya into his arms, Maya's reaction is funny

Any yup when later they are running to Aya's place, Nagi's left hand is apparently resting on Maya's breast... well, I guess we can't blame Nagi, as I guess Maya's... "things" are just way too huge that it's hard to place your hand around that area without touching it

Well when referring to a Japanese textbook, Tenjou Tenge is the correct romanization. I can see using Tenjo Tenge (cause honestly, who knows how to pronounce that 'u' at the end if they don't know Japanese?), and Tenjyo Tenge would be a variation of the shortened 'Tenjo Tenge' (at least it would work in a word processor), but Tenjho Tenge has no basis.

Of course, I was just giving you the look for the hell of it.

actually, Tenjho Tenge has the best basis... since the manga itself says "Tenjho Tenge" on its cover. So it could be said that "Tenjho Tenge" is the official romanization of the manga title...

Spoiler for not really a spoiler:

[hunterx]

does it matter what it is spelled in romaji? romaji is a bastardization of hiragana/katakana for westerners. tenjo, tenjou, tenjyo, tenjho are all pronounced the same way. Everyone seems to have their own rules for making romaji although I must say you rarely see a "jho" used for that sound effect. Either way there is no point arguing what the correct spelling is. the correct spelling is the kanji/hiragana/katakana itself. anything else is made up

well, everything is made up, including the kanji/hiragana/katakana title, they are made up by the author. The author himself made up the title "天上天下", and the author himself made up the romanization "Tenjho Tenge". So I guess we should respect "Tenjho Tenge" as much as "天上天下" as the official manga title. Everything else is made up by people other than the author himself, thus not as much credibility.

So what if "jho" is weird and doesn't make sense? you can't argue against the very guy who created the manga series can you? If you don't like the romanization "Tenjho", I guess you can always send emails to Oh!great to complain about it

[hunterx]

whoosh! Many westerners who see hiragana or katakana don't know how to sound them off, so romaji is an approximation made for foreigners to sound them off. It is not for spelling only for sounding. jo, jou, jyo, jho all sound the same. the spelling is irrelevant.

[silentpixel]

ugh when is episode 6 going to be subbed already

I tend to ignore when manga or anime misspell character names (in English). I mean, if they pronounce Robert but spell it as Robut, I'm not gonna honor that.

There's no such thing as 'official' romaji by the manga author. He just plain doesn't know how to romanize Japanese, and why should he? I'm sure he didn't learn Japanes as a foreign language...

I never meant for this to be serious, but while we're at it I went ahead and posted my thoughts.
