[edit] Maze TV

Should the Maze TV series be described in a separate page, or together on the same page as the OAV? I'm not sure whether I'll have time, but the TV series is one of my favorite anime series and this page only describes the OAV. --Ssokolow 07:06, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Ranchiki - girl or boy?

Recently I've seen this anime and I would say, that it is almost sure that Ranchiki is not a girl - Ranchiki is a boy. Why?

  1. Male Maze (Akira) desperately runs from Ranchiki, although he always tries to get any girl in his way.
  2. There were several situations when Ranchiki's body was partialy revealed (injury, open clothes, ...) and he has a male body (if you think that Ranchiki is a flat-chested girl, I disagree, the body is much more male than female).
  3. Ranchiki's behavior - interaction with prince Gold, Maze, ...
  4. I've seen fansub with Japanesse audio and English subtitles. I'm not 100% sure, but I think I've heard word boku several times when Ranchiki speaks. That word is used almost exclusively by males, see Japanese pronouns or http://web.mit.edu/jpnet/articles/JapaneseLanguage.html.
  5. See also reviews and discussions on http://galeon.hispavista.com/anycb/enlaces325661.html, http://www.boysonboysonfilm.com/anime/maze.html.

In Ranchiki's first appearance, he was referred to as a him in the English subtitles of Software Scultors's japanese sub translation. So yeah, he's a boy. —Preceding unsigned comment added by MegaZilla (talkcontribs) 03:46, 10 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Maze Picture

I suggest we get a decent useable picture for this anime. Make sure it is allowed here according to the wikipedia rules regarding images. A nice pic with the characters and possibly the logo. Maybe something with Maze and Princess Mill with Dulgar (the main mecha) or one with a bunch of the characters perhaps? A perfect example for a pic from the anime Aura Battler Dunbine is this Image:Aura Battler Dunbine.jpg . Another good example is from RahXephon this picture Image:RahXephon_dvdcover3_adv.jpg . Please look into this (but no rush ^.^ ) - Prede (talk) 01:36, 14 January 2008 (UTC)

I uploaded a picture for the main page. - Prede (talk) 21:07, 29 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Plot Expansion

Could the plot be expaned apon a bit? Being only one paragraph, it seems it could be more usefull if it had a few more paragrpahs, but nothing to lenghty please. If you do add a lot, that's all right we can allways cut it down a bit. Right now thought it is REALLY too short. - Prede (talk) 06:17, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
