    Right. Can someone explain what Shiten Myooh and Koutetsu Teikoku mean in english?
    320 years have passed since the coven sank into the dark

    I may have been born in The United States, but running through my veins is 70,000% UK blood.

    Here's something from my blog:

    "Please" and "thank you" killed each other didn't they?

    Anyway:
    It would be helpful to know where the names are from so someone can google the kanji for those names if there are any.

    Without seeing them I can only guess that koutetsu is steel and teikoku is imperial...as for the other name...I have no idea I'm afraid...

    First is "Imperium of steel" or "Steel Empire"
    Second seems to be composed of 2 seperate buddhist terms according to what my mighty dictionary says.... I have not enough knowledge about that so I wont dare to try and explain them....Loosely translated I thing it's something about the lines of
    "4 heaven kings" or so...

    This one is tricky. Koutetsu Teikoku means "Steel Empire" or something along those lines. LavaBug had it right.

    Shiten Myooh (its actually "Myouou") is much harder to translate. Judging from the Kanji, 四天明王, I can guess that it something like "The Light of the Four Heavenly Kings" or, for the sake of keeping with the pattern of Buddhist terms (since that is what the title is using), "The Wisdom (or Mantra) of the Four Heavenly Kings".
    This is my war face.

    This is what happens to trolls who mess with me.

    Hey, it's Shadow Blasters! (Shiten Myooh). Probably not right, but the U.S. release was called "Shadow Blasters".


    Stuff like this always makes me sad. U.S. box art is so often screwed up.

    Yeah, the US version was called "Shadow Blasters". However, Shiten Myouou doesn't actually mean "Shadow Blasters".
