| For anime movies, when 'eiga' or 'gekijouban' are used before the title it is always changed to (X series) Movie (#x). Yet in the manga DB there are strange inconsistencies in titles like here and here. It makes much more sense sorting wise to use the main series' title first, hence why it works well in the anime DB. Another example that should be addressed is Dai-(X)-wa/bu/shou/ki/gou not being changed to their respective english translations, like episode, chapter, part, season, #, etc. It does not make sense to write it like this on an english language site, as the kanji 第 is used as a counter equivalent to the roman '#', and as such does not need to be maintained like the full japanese title. Just a few of the many examples include; this, this, or this Even if the stance of using the japanese title in its entirely for DB entries, than it should not be done just for manga entries. |

| What you are talking about is not romanisation but translation. And personally I'd rather see consistantly romanised rather than consistantly (part-)translated. |
