Not sure if should revert Dan1023's revisions, I talked recently with Code-Zero about the tenses and he informed me we are no longer aiming for every narration in past tense, tenses should be changed according to the situation. What do you guys think? Ajmc93 19:42, 3 June 2012 (CDT)

Well... For present tense, it has to be occurring in the current time or real time, in English it's widely known as the historical present. It's commonly found in spontaneous conversational narratives than written literature. For past tense, events of the plot has to be occurring sometime before the current narrative. It's commonly used in literature and storytelling in Chinese, English, Portuguese, and Italian languages. Also, Japanese don't have any future tenses, they use present tense for that. We are still in a dilemma over will tense to use. We might have to go with present tense since it is a character narrating in real time.--Hiro Hayase 20:56, 3 June 2012 (CDT)
