Hey Speng, if I scan, will you translate the titles? -Derik 18:04, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

I take your silence for assent. -Derik 18:35, 9 May 2007 (UTC)

Here's what I came up with...

  • "1st Operation: The Five Rookies"
  • "2nd Operation: The Capsule is Seven"
  • "3rd Operation: Sandron 100,000,000,000,000,000 Grains!!"
  • "4th Operation: "Fight to the Death! 20,000 Meters in the Sky"
  • "5th Operation: Battle of the Single Batch"
  • "6th Operation: Double Cross"
  • "Last Operation: Return of the Zero" --DrSpengler 19:24, 9 May 2007 (UTC)


Just got pointed to this page, so to throw in my two bits:
1 - Okay as-is
2 - The Seven Capsules/There Are Seven Capsules
3 - Tricky w/o context, but my thought is "100,000,000,000,000,000 Drops of Thundron!!" (The characters used are actually tekisei ("enemy strength"), but they're given the pronunciation "thundron".)
4 - Not wrong, but maybe "Death Struggle at 20,000 Meters!" would be better?
5 - As noted on my Talk page, I believe "A Solo Battle" or "A Battle Fought Alone" is better. The word is hitori-botchi, not hitori batchi.
6 - Okay as-is
7 - "Return to Zero", I'd say. "Return of the Zero" would be Zero no Kikan, but this is Zero he no Kikan.

In this case, Doug, I think "Sandron" is the planet of sand they visit. --Monzo 18:18, 10 November 2008 (EST)
"Return to Zero" would make sense in terms of the Angolmois capsule count. —Interrobang 18:47, 10 November 2008 (EST)
Um, not sure whether the "Zero" stands for "the origin" or the Angolmois capsule count. --TX55TALK 05:34, 11 November 2008 (EST)

Like I said, tricky without context. So "100,000,000,000,000,000 Grains of Sandron!!", then. I guess the sand counts as enemy strength within the chapter.--Apcog 11:16, 11 November 2008 (EST)
IIRC, Sandron is both the name of the planet and the sand-like creature on the planet. --TX55TALK 17:53, 11 November 2008 (EST)
There you go—context.--Apcog 10:23, 12 November 2008 (EST)
