I don't think changing this article's title to have "Lord Zarak" in it makes much sense. Lord Zarak is Nebulan, he certainly doesn't appear in this episode or any other episode of Headmasters. --KilMichaelMcC 04:41, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

Well the Japanese title refers to the little robot that turns into a head, so... --Detour 04:56, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
Whom we call "Scorponok" in the Scorponok (G1) article. At the least, I think "Lord" should be removed, as it's a title. Interrobang 04:58, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
He's confused about the Anglification of names on the wiki.
We do indeed use the English names whenever possible/sensible... but this is a proper title, it's what the episode's called. The 3rd episode of the Energon series is called Scorpinok, they managed to mispell the name of one of the main characters through heroic acts of incompetence. We know they meant Scorponok... but the title of the episode remains 'Scorpinok.' Titles are titles- we don't change 'em.
We don't 'guess' what a Japanese title might be if it were written by Americans... because Japanese titles are insane, no English production will never use the title "HyperGod Convoy is a friend to animals and lover of women! Ultimate battle for Fourth Base GO NOW!" In America we title that episode "Prime Numbers." -Derik 05:03, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
