Dengeki Daioh isn't a "men's magazine"; it's an anime magazine people of both genders read. I understand that "men's" may have been translated directly from Dengeki Daioh's classification as a "seinen magazine", but the meaning is inaccurate. I plan to add a Character section, make the plot summary more precise, and add more detail on the school-duels based on the Japanese version of this wiki. --Barcarolle

I wonder if this could be notable as I know of no other series with such a product, http://www.engadget.com/2007/03/06/hayate-cross-blade-usb-powered-talking-organizer/ Itanshi 13:50, 7 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Dengeki Daioh is CLEARLY a men's magazine. Manga mags are either aimed at male (shounen, seinen) or female (shoujo, josei) demographics. Sure, girls can enjoy shounen or seinen and guys can enjoy some shoujo too, but that doesn't change the magazine's target reader group. And in case you're wondering, a men's magazine doesn't mean it contains adult material. :P --Dez26 20:13, 26 May 2009 (UTC)

Ten/Chi versus Heaven/Earth

edit

Isn't it the convention of articles on translated media to use the translated terms as they appear in the official translations. That is, in the English volumes I have read, the two sword bearer types are only mentioned as "Heaven" and "Earth", not "Ten" and "Chi" or as in the original Japanese. Although even if they were mentioned, I have to admit that knowing what "Ten" and "Chi" should remain since the name of the school is "Tenchi" academy. Tysior (talk) 04:37, 22 November 2010 (UTC)Reply
