Talk:Chrome Shelled Regios

Volume 1:Chapter 5 - Point of Difference

Just after the the first platoon match when Layfon wakes up in the hospital, there is a sentence that does not seem to make grammatical sense. The line reads as follows: "Layfon took the juice from Meishen. The juice refreshed his thirsty throat. He drank as if the liquid to seep through his entire body." The problem I see is with the last sentence of the line. My proposed edit would be "He drank as if to let the liquid seep through his entire body." Alternatively, the sentence could read "He drank as if to allow the liquid to seep through his entire body." --xstar 12:30, May 28, 2010 (UTC Pacific)

Volumes 8:Innocence Wander

I think that chapter "Innocence Wander" in Volume 8 is misplaced. The content should be placed earlier in the story's timeline. Could someone check it out please?

What do you mean? - in the story timeline? Where should that be in the timeline in your opinion? --Darklor 05:57, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

Honestly, the normal timeline seems correct. In volume two, Meishen has Felli pass the letter on to Layfon. In Innocence Wander, Meishen recalls that incident with the line reading "...Mei-Shen recalled the time when she stood here agonising over whether or not she should give Layfon the letter that was accidentally sent to her. If she hadn’t met Felli here, what might have happened…?" --xstar 1:02, May 18, 2010 (UTC Pacific)

Volumes 3 and 11

Could someone double check the names of volumes 3 and 11? I checked: here is volume 3: 鋼殻のレギオス 3 センチメンタル・ヴォイス and here is volume 11: 鋼殻のレギオス１１ インパクト・ガールズ

I don't know any japanese, but I highly doubt that these two phrases mean exactly the same thing --Saganatsu 21:44, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

Chrome Shelled Regios 3 Sentimental Voice, Chrome Shelled Regios 11 Impact Girls is what I get. ~EnigmaticRepose

Thank you. --Saganatsu 23:44, 1 March 2010 (UTC)

I am not a Japanese translator but for simple things like this there is no need to bother anyone; google translator works well enough.

鋼殻のレギオス 3 センチメンタル・ヴォイス Steel Chrome Shelled sentimental voice 3

鋼殻のレギオス１１ インパクト・ガールズ 11 Girls Impact Steel Chrome Shelled

Yes they mean something different; is the above translation perfect no but who cares lets just enjoy the excellent work that the translators are doing.

Thanks again to Blewin, Haze and Iygophile.

thanks,

Volumes 6+

I just wanted to ask if there´s a specific reason, why the pictures in the chapters from Vol.6 on are missing. Because from Vol.1-5 they're in the different chapters.

I assume they were forgotten to include into the chapters, or Vaelis (or someone else, but I belive it was ususally Vaelis doing) still havnt had the time to include them... --Darklor 07:43, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

I see, thank you for the answer.

prequels:

At what point in the series do the prequels no longer contain major spoilers about how the world came about. in other words, how many volumes can we go without them containing major spoilers?

What do you mean? What risk? Is there someone who translates the prequels? (Also I would say no risk as long as you dont read them ;))--Darklor 21:20, 27 March 2010 (UTC)

Well, no one is translating the prequels (sadly), so I haven't read them, but presumably, one might have a very different understanding of Filth Monsters, or Ignasis, among other things, after reading the prequels, which might spoil some surprises in the main series (like how the prequel trilogy in Star Wars ruins the revelations of the end of Episode 5 of that series): as I can't read japanese, I couldn't say, but was just curious. --Saganatsu 03:23, 4 April 2010 (UTC)

Compared to the Anime/Manga...

I was just wondering how many of the light novels the anime covered, and how much was different between the anime, the manga and the light novel. also, since i haven't read that far yet, please try not too give away too many spoilers, if any, about the story after the point of the anime ( or equivalent point in the novels).

The anime covers volumes 1-7, but the last chapters of volume 7 is different from the anime.

I'm not sure about the manga as I don't read it, but the novels have much more details than the anime. the last 2 chapters or so of Vol 7 kick start from where the anime left off. You might also want to read Vol 8 (short stories) in conjunction with Vol 2 and 3 as it takes place much earlier. The main story goes: Vol 1-7, 9, 12 to current Vol 14. As for differences.... Leerin and Nina receive far better reception in the novels. They've both been butchered in the anime! Gorneo and Shante also have more screen time. - blewin

Thx, that was just the answers i was looking for. keep up the good work Blewin, Haze. Ganbare!

Volume 9 prologue

Does Volume 9 have a prologue? The project and registration pages make it look like it should have one, but since Blewin appears to have skipped it, I want to confirm whether or not it exists. --Saganatsu 22:59, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

I skipped it because I couldn't find the prologue, but Haze found it for me. Prologue 9 should be on its way soon. - blewin
