What about Samurai X?

Post by RiceBurner » Mon Jan 05, 2004 9:21 pm

Hey, does anyone know if there are any AMV's using Samurai X: The Motion Picture? I checked the sight and I swear, there were 0 matches for "Samurai X". If this is the case, then that's good news for me b/c I just ripped Samurai X and am looking foward to using it in my AMV's.

That would probably be because the entries have been corrected for it. I think this is the corrected entry:

Rurouni Kenshin - Ishinshishi Movie (Requiem for Meiji Restoration Patriots)

Hmm? Do you mean the Kenshin movie or the Samurai X OAV aka. Kenshin OAV?

Kenshin OAV = 91 results

Kenshin Movie = 121 results

and I'm sure there's dozens more names that Ol' Ken's OAV/movie has been buried under.

but it's so been done :P

Haha ... too many names for just one anime series, oh the confusion of these different names ... :?

Not any more there's not. It's all been standardised. All the Samurai X entries are now just aliases.

These are the org's official entries now:

Rurouni Kenshin (TV)
Rurouni Kenshin - 1st OVA series (Tsuiokuhen, Trust and Betrayal)
Rurouni Kenshin - 2nd OVA series (Seisouhen, Reflection)
Rurouni Kenshin - Ishinshishi Movie (Requiem for Meiji Restoration Patriots)

Good to know :)

So, I guess the 91/121 distribution is the actual OAV/Movie number

I think you should add the term 'Samurai X' in there somewhere AD. Mainly because all those people who don't know that ADV just raped the titles for Kenshin might have problems finding enteries. Such as the case with Qyot27

Wasn't it originally Sony that came up with the stoopid title for the Trust/Betrayal OAV, with ADV later picking up on the trend?

Although, who really cares...

I'm not sure... Maybe. I remember seeing ADV's release of Kenshin OVA1. Two casettes, labled 'Samurai X: Trust' and 'Samurai X: Betrayal' no mention of the TV series or anything was on the boxes. IT seemed as if ADV was trying to make 'Samurai X' look like a lonesome creation.

OK, the way it works at the moment is this:

When someone goes to add "Samurai X" to their video they will see it in italics, which means its an alias. What really shows up is a Rurouni Kenshin entry.


Now, the only thing that we hadn't thought of is what happens when someone searches for "Samurai X". The solution that I'm going to ask phade is to see if the Super Search can also search through names of aliases. If that's possible then it shouldn't be a problem.

I'm not going to go and add every possible name for a show into a title, otherwise I'd have REALLY long titles for some shows.
