[edit] Director credited name

Hi,

Some sources (like [1], [2] and [3]) credits the director of Lupin III: The Legend of the Gold of Babylon as Kiyoshi Suzuki.

We're now sure that this anime was actually directed by Seijun Suzuki (as stated on this article, and from his own words on this interview : [4]).

What's still to be clarified is whether Suzuki used his usual artist first name (Seijun) or the Kiyoshi pseudonym.

We would really want to put the record straight on Seijun Suzuki's articles, and we're presently discussing about this on the Suzuki's articles French talk page and on the Japanese talk page. The only way we could close the question is to see the credited name on an official The Legend media (a poster, the DVD cover etc.), but neither of us have such a material offhand.

Could someone help us please ? The question is : on the DVD cover (or so) do you see "鈴木清順" (that's "Suzuki Seijun") or "鈴木清" (that's "Suzuki Kiyoshi") (if you have trouble displaying Japanese kanjis, here is a small screenshot : [5]) ?

Thanks in advance for your help. Benjamin.pineau 11:44, 15 September 2006 (UTC)
