We want to change localized names to their actual translations. The reason for this is the localization being just bad.

I mean, seriously? A few localizations for one term, sometines even during the one game? Some of these localizations are absurd, like:
 * "Order of Power" instead of "Power of Order" ,
 * "Face Lift" changed to "Phase Shift" ,
 * "Bystander" and "Observer" localized as one term, "Observer" ,
 * "Book of the Blue Blaze" localized as "Azure Flamed Grimoire", when it's not a grimoire,
 * "Imagined Landscape" is called as the "Realm", for some reason,
 * "Magic City Ishana" is called as "Magister's City: Ishana" – does the localization team know what "magister" means?

How is this translating "meanings, not words"? For me, it looks more like "our interpretation of the game".

Below I'm adding a few examples of terms to be changed:


 * Amanohokosaka clan → Amanohokosaka family
 * Azure → Blue
 * Cauldron → Kiln
 * Doomsday → Day of Ruin
 * Duodecim → Twelve Originators
 * Edge → Narrow Space
 * Elise von Klagen → Els von Klagen
 * First War of Ars Magus → First Great Magic War
 * Kaka clan → Kaka tribe
 * Mage's Guild → Magic Association


 * Magister's City: Ishana → Magic City Ishana
 * Phenomenon Intervention → Event Interference
 * Prime Field Device → Prime Field Contact
 * Realm → Imagined Landscape
 * Second War of Ars Magus → Second Great Magic War
 * SS-class criminal → SS-class rebel
 * Weather Control Device → Environment Maintenance Device
 * Zero-Type Izayoi → Zero Weave: Izayoi

Of course in the articles it will be written how it's localized using variants from the Library. For example:
 * Blue Grimoire (蒼の魔道書)
 * Bleu Grimoire (碧の魔道書)
 * Dimensional Boundary Prime Field Contact (次元境界接触用素体)
 * Imagined Landscape (心象風景)
 * Magic City Ishana (魔道都市イシャナ)

In case there is more localizations for one name, the rest will be noted in trivia.

I don't know what to say more, just let us know here what you think about it.
