Ever since Xinil announced that users can now submit info on the episode list, I started reading the guidelines about the Anime DB, and wanted to submit one episode from this anime to try it out.

However, when I submitted it, the Romanized title of the first two episodes were the same as the English ones, which was my fault because I didn't know what to write there honestly... Thought it was gonna automatically translate the kanji in to a romanized title, now it's just sitting there looking stupid because of me.

Really sorry mods, I know you guys work hard everyday here.
Hope someone helps, want to change that info badly.

hey, Reverie_is_mE

The romanized title is the same as the main title in this case. So, that wasn't your mistake. You don't have to worry. Although it does look a bit silly, afaik we do not omit the romanized title if it's the same as the english title.

I see, but one more question.

Is it okay to leave it like that? the English and romanized title being the same? When I looked up Snk's episode list, one of its romanized title is Ni Sen-Nen-Go no Kimi e, but on that anime, it was in english, yes you said the main and the romanized title is the same, I just think some people might find it irritating/confusing.

So will it still be fine?

Yes, it's ok to leave it like this, or to leave it blank. You don't have to figure out the correct romanization yourself. It's the same only if it's romanized like that, which is not the case with the first episode of SnK you've referenced.

>I just think some people might find it irritating/confusing.
Not really. Don't worry about that.
