[edit] Title

About the title.. since it's written in hiragana, should there really be a macron on the a? Shiroi Hane 21:42, 8 April 2006 (UTC)

Actually, if you watch to the end of the intro flash on the official site they write it as "Magical ? Pokahn" [1]. Shiroi Hane 22:28, 8 April 2006 (UTC)
I can't imagine any anime having a macron officially in its title. That said, I think it is fine either way. Having a space infront of a question mark bugs me more, but the current title is good enough for me. —Tokek 11:42, 4 July 2006 (UTC)
What's with the space, anyway? The intro flash is just about the only place where you'll find it, and in there it's Pokahn, which you should go for if you want to stick by that. It's very arguable that the intro flash means that it's "meant to be" written that way. I have little opinion as to the spelling of Pokân, because it doesn't seem to be a real word anyways. A space is agains common typography, though, and as the name is now in correct Hepburn apart from that, I say the space should go. --Bakuryuu 12:03, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Airtimes

What timeslot/channel does this anime show in japan? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.68.130.0 (talk • contribs) .

A listing is found here. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 00:54, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
If you get confused by the times, here's a guide:
  • 25:00 = 1:00am
  • 26:00 = 2:00am
  • 27:00 = 3:00am
  • 28:00 = 4:00am

I've know about military time (1-12,13-24), but what're the japanese using? Why does it start at 25:00? Where did this come from and why do they use it? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.68.130.0 (talk • contribs) .
I don't know why it's done, but it's been done that way for many years now. Maybe if you stay up later, then it's still the same day? (^_-) ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 02:01, 23 June 2006 (UTC)
Maybe it can be less confusing to say Monday, 25:00 because some might accidentally mistake Tuesday, 1:00AM for Tuesday 1:00PM or Wednesday 1:00AM.—Tokek 11:27, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] "Cammy"

Is there any source for this spelling of the name? Shiroi Hane 15:50, 27 September 2006 (UTC)

That was my correction, as what I had to go on was the fansub (which is not always correct) and the voice. Should I note it as such? Sosei 12:04, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
I've never seen an official spelling for it, so it was entered using the straight romaji. Shiroi Hane 12:41, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
I have now, and it's Keimie (from the 2nd pokahn box DVD booklets.. I only have box 1 but tseniv has scanned his). Shiroi Hane 22:23, 10 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Article title

Shouldn't the title of this article be Magipoka? I assume that, on the English Wikipedia, that the most commonly-used English name should be used. In my experience, Magipoka is the most commonly-used English name. How do others feel about this? Mermaid from the Baltic Sea 02:30, 25 April 2007 (UTC)

I've always heard it being referenced as "Renkin San-Kyuu Magical Pokaan" in my experience. 12.215.110.44 19:09, 18 May 2007 (UTC)
