| | Posted: | | | | I have added those. If you watch the episodes, you will see, that when the episode titles are displayed you can see the original title in the background which is even in the original japanese in German. Then the japanese and english translations are displayed in front. I have handled it because of that the following way: German Title: Japanese title (for original title, only available in my CCViewer program) German Title: English title (for title field. What I have contributed for the cast/crew dividers) On Wikipedia you can also see, that they put the german titles also in the title. But the way it is displayed in the episode itself, I saw more logical to put the German title in first place. Even the title "Elfen Lied" is German. | | |

The original episode titles seem to be german, just as the name of the show is. See japanese Wikipedia. My guess is that the episode titles on the actual DVD are german also (don't have the DVDs yet). cya, Mithi | | | | Mithi's little XSLT tinkering - the power of XML --- DVD-Profiler Mini-Wiki | | | | Last edited: by Mithi |
