Requested song: "The OTOME Advent" Original title: "O-TO-ME Kourin" Before I bother fulfilling the request, will there be an issue if a song is requested by the english translation of the name, and the uploaded file is by the japanese name? The reason I ask is that while, yes, I can simply change the file name to match, most of the tracks on the site are listed via the japanese title... especially in background music from OSTs. Not only that, the translation omits the marks in the original title (the dots between the characters, or dashes here). Is there an official preference on this, or is it case by case? |

this question has been asked before. like i said, it would be best to put both titles in the filename. that way, no matter which i search for, i will find the file. here at gendou, there is a slight preference for the original japanese translation, but this is often overlooked. again, i can read japanese, but my search algorithm cannot. include both names if you please. thanks for uploading!
