We're not changing the Fire Emblem tag back to JP.

Anyway, did the latest BUR.

Actually, if you want to create a BUR for Fire Emblem jp->en stuff, don’t go to the Forums page but rather click on “Request alias/implication” while you have this thread open. That way, your BUR will be attached to this thread.

Go to the Forums page and click on “Request alias/implication” if you want to create a BUR that has nothing to do with FE and should thus get its own thread.

The “Request” text box will show the available commands before you type anything in there. The command to remove an alias is “remove alias fromname -> toname”.

Since all japanese names have been aliased to english names, you would have to first send an unalias request. Eg.

unalias dyute -> delthea_(fire_emblem)

After the unalias gets accepted, you will need to make another BUR and alias english names to jp names. Eg.

alias delthea_(fire_emblem) -> dyute

Also, don't forget cosplay tags.

Make a BUR yourself if you care so much. It's what i did myself.

There is literally nothing abstract about the titles of the games though. Seisen no Keifu is going to stay that way no matter how much you twist it. That's why I said they should be in Japanese.

I'd love to make a BUR but I genuinely don't know how. Give me some pointers and I'll get to it.

The bulk update request #2269 is active.

create alias tokyo_mirage_sessions_sharp_fe -> gen'ei_ibunroku_sharp_fe
create alias fire_emblem_warriors -> fire_emblem_musou
create alias tharja -> tharja_(fire_emblem)

Reason: They're not mainline Fire Emblem titles, so no. That said, I can put down some aliases to aid searches.

Also, bonus Tharja.

Of course they should use their Japanese names. The romanisation argument doesn't fly there.

I think the irony here is that half of the names have been in english until i pushed the BUR, but apparently you were ok with some english names.

Hillside Moose said:

As much as I dislike the direction Fire Emblem localization is headed, at the very least it's a stable anchor, unlike the JP names which can change depending on fan consensus and official side materials. Therefore, the Fire Emblem series will be an exception to Danbooru policy and use the localized names for titles and characters.

Reviving this discourse again

Since #FE characters have been added to FEH, should the spinoffs/crossovers (namely, Gen'ei Ibunroku sharp FE and Fire Emblem Musou) use the japanese or english names?
The main problem here is that the games they crossover with use japanese names on Danbooru.

Found some more from Three Houses, namely Shamir, Gilbert, Annette, and Mercedes. Tags were likely made pre-release, when people had to take artistic liberties with the names (ex. Dominique vs. Dominic). I should note that I'm comparing names to the "official" localizations found in the Fire Emblem Wiki.

I'll keep this BUR up for a little longer, in case there's more. Keep an eye out.

Edit: Okay, I think that's actually all of them, short of any minor NPCs I missed.
