[edit] Ordering

How is this being ordered? By appearance, importance, alphabetically...? Right now it seems more or less random. --maru (talk) contribs 01:08, 6 April 2006 (UTC)

I believe we should order it by apperance it would be the most professional way of handling something like this. --Link25 02:20, 25 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Page Move

I completely disagree with the page move as it would undermine a useful support structure and organization for the megatokyo article. Also the old one giant character page was afully long. And if the old page still exists it should be deleted as it is redundent. Vcelloho 01:46, 17 May 2006 (UTC)

I agree, moving the article is usless since the two pages have basically the same information. The only exception is that the Main Chracter version is more up to date and with better photos. Deleteing the old page would seem better then moving it. --Link25 22:23, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tohya Miho, mundane?

I was under the impression that since her most recent appearance (page 819) the non-supernatural theories have greatly declined. Considering that Ed doesn't ph34r even the gynoid that destroyed his face (plus the fact that the beeper didn't go off right away)... 66.69.147.209 09:34, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

While Ed's reaction is certainly curious, and demands careful consideration, I hardly think that it is strong evidence of Miho's supernaturality.

But that doesn't matter, enough people still believe that she is "mundane" for mentioning it in the article to be justified. Hargle 13:20, 25 May 2006 (UTC)

Sections about Miho, Ed and Yuki have been modified including brief accounts of the latest events and their implications for the debate around Tohya's nature. --81.208.60.199 16:50, 24 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Characters: Erika

It says in Erika's article that Hitoshi left her claiming "he was holding her back". But didn't a recent strip reveal that it was really over a pregnancy scare? BethEnd 16:41, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Dom and Ed in OO

The characters of Dom and Ed, the same ones in MT, also appear in Okashina Okashi. This is an important thing to mention and similar to how you'd mention the character of one novel appearing in another. Deleting it does not seem to be based on any Wiki standards and runs contrary to having the article be as informative as possible. I don't know exactly why the editor in question seems intent on diminishing the quality of the article, but I ask that he stop immediately and begin adhering to good Wiki guidelines. Seiya 05:22, 5 July 2006 (UTC)

Please stop deleting referances to Dom and Ed in OO. These are not small cameos, nor are they done without permission. Dom and Ed conscented to the reproduction of these characters in full in another comic. As far as I know, this is the only other comic to feature them on the 'net. That makes this a significant fact, ne?

[edit] Japanese for Miho Tohya (Tohya Miho)?

I am wondering why there isn't japanese equivalent of Miho's name in the article? Shouldn't we have it there? Amp e rsand2006 ^{( & )} 16:57, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

Fred has never revealed what her name kanji is. It drives forum-goers nuts. ^_^ --Masamage 17:17, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Big Mode" Seraphim?

In Megatokyo's latest comic 899 it is revealed that Seraphim has the ability to "transform" into her "Big Mode", but it is expensive to her and the company. Should this be noted? Amp e rsand2006 ^{( & )} 19:07, 28 August 2006 (UTC)

Sure, one sentence can't hurt. --Masamage 16:28, 29 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Miho's Medical Condition

I've changed the Description of Miho's Medical Trouble in Chapter two - The Past Edit said she "Passed out" - To the Presumably more accurate "Caused her to Go into shock"

My reasons for this are Such -

1) According to what ping says in comic 0238(20/03/2002), She Presents the symptoms of the mid stages of shock - Weak, thready Pulse, Clammy skin and shallow, irregular breathing. She also Appears to clutch her Chest - a possible Indication of a heart condition - Which is one of the most common causes of Shock.

2)Though She is taken to the School Infirmary, In her next appearance in the comic She is seen in the hospital - If she had simply Passed out, It is unlikely that she would be Taken to hospital.

3)If she were to pass out, Unless she had done herself a severe injury - for example, a severe skull fracture - on the tiled floor, it would be very unlikely for her to present the symptoms she did.

Edit - Forgot to sign my above comment when posted, so here I do Churba 18:21, 16 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ed- "The Real thing"

In Ed's section, it says that he calls Miho "The Real Thing" in http://www.megatokyo.com/index.php?strip_id=819 . But isn't he referring to fear, or more accuratley, PH33R? --Alcnolien 02:09, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

It definitely looks like that the second time he says it, but the first time, he says " You... You're... The real thing." --Masamage 02:15, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

Ah, yeah, I see it. Missed it the first time :D--Alcnolien 18:57, 7 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Shiritsu Daitou High School

Early on in the comic, Largo somehow manages to get employed as an English teacher at Shiritsu Daitou High School, where Ping, Sonoda Yuki, and Tohya Miho attend,

I think this is a little false, since Sonoda Yuki goes to another school, isn't it?JZX100 23:55, 21 March 2007 (UTC)

Yuki goes to the middle school. --Masamage 02:20, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Seraphim's sisters

An anon just edited out the existence of Seraphim's second sister, the cheerful one. --Masamage ♫ 17:49, 1 June 2007 (UTC)
