Talk:Seirei Tsukai no Blade Dance:Volume11 Prologue

Geh, is it really normal to divide Prologue into parts? (this is not against you, it´s against the author). BTW, though I haven´t read it yet, I think the "underhand grip" used to be "reverse grip" which also sounds better in the previous volume, though I might be mistaken and it being another thing as I haven´t read the original.--Zuruumi (talk) 04:37, 20 July 2013 (CDT)

Reverse grip is fine too. Pretty sure it's the same thing, it isn't some fancy term. --KuroiHikari (Talk | ) 05:08, 20 July 2013 (CDT)

@KuroiHikari terminology is not always "fancy" but plz look it up before u say things like "pretty sure it is the same thing" as "underhanded grip" is not the proper term nor is it a term used at all in describing sword grips. While this page uses knifes https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knife_fight#Knife_grips the picture shows why it would not ever be an called underhanded grip. Reverse grip referees to hold the blade pointed down the arm. But the form he uses is a "Reversed Grip Slash" as he held the blade with the edge pointed toward her while cutting from below upwards. If it was the "Reversed Grip Icepick" variation it would have been a stabbing attack from above.

Proper or not, people do use it to describe the same thing. I will say reverse is less confusing than underhand but it's still points to the blade being under the hand. When I say fancy terminology, I'm referring to the one the author marks out or style with English, trying to make it fancy. Zuruumi was just telling me reverse is used previously and that I should standardise. --KuroiHikari (Talk | ) 17:35, 25 July 2013 (CDT) But really if you have to have it as reverse, go ahead and change it. That's also what I mean by the same thing. The source used the same term, just that I translated it improperly in your words. --KuroiHikari (Talk | ) 17:47, 25 July 2013 (CDT)
