[edit] Mars Attacks

The reference to Void's "similarity" to the Aliens in mars attacks has been removed. It is wholly irrelevant for a multitude of reasons, such as Void being more "Pinhead" inspired (Hellraiser, Miura an admitted fan), Berserk predating Burton's film, and in general very limited likeness sans an exposed cranium and or brain...I'd almost take it as a joke inserted and not anything serious, and as such was removed.

[edit] Item list

Anybody know how to make the secondary characters appear in the ToC like the primary ones do? I'm racking my brain trying to remember how. If I do, I do, but looking for an assist if I can't. TotalTommyTerror 15:07, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Well, I figured it out, but now there's question marks next to each of the romanji pronunciations for the names? Help? TotalTommyTerror 16:25, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

Ah, nevermind. Looks like they were there in previous versions? Part of the romanji code in wiki maybe? TotalTommyTerror 16:26, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A short list

There are three characters in Berzerk. There is the player, the robots, and Evil Otto. Shouldn't this article start off by telling people a little bit about Berserk? I understand that it's not the arcade game, it must be a cartoon series, but I can't tell from the index page on its own. Zombiflava 16:40, 18 March 2007 (UTC)

Fixed. --Darkbane 13:13, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Portraits

I'm curious about the absence of fair-use portraits for character identification. There won't be any problem with me adding such, right? --Darkbane talk 17:39, 18 May 2007 (UTC)

There shouldn't be. Just make sure to include all the relevant fair use rationale and source information. (Ideally, source to the manga chapter.) --tjstrf talk 17:45, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Not a problem. I always include very detailed rationales. Something that's missing in 95% of the manga/anime related images on Wikipedia, really :/ --Darkbane talk 17:57, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
Added a couple. Let me know if you think there's any problem with these fair use rationales, before I add a whole bunch more. --Darkbane talk 23:53, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Nihongo

Any objections to moving the nihongo templates from the section titles to the first sentence in each section? It'll clean up the TOC significantly. --Darkbane talk 23:52, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Zodd

I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but in the manga Zodd has his left horn cut off, not his right. I tried to change this, but it reverted. -anonymous

[edit] Casca

I think Gut's inner beast meant to eat Casca, or rape then eat her. Also, in the last sentence of that section, who is "he"? -anonymous —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.142.110.130 (talk) 01:53, 15 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Peekaf/Pirkaf

There seems to be some controversy regarding which of these is the correct translation for the name of the legendary boy who lived with the elves. According to the official Dark Horse manga, the translation is Peekaf. Pirkaf is used in some internet translations. I think the Dark Horse translation should be preferred over all unofficial translations when it is available (only volumes 1-20 have been released so far). In the case of names, only a direct quote from Miura should override it. Billebrooks (talk) 04:46, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
