Re: Rewrite

Hi, I saw that you changed the term heroine to "female lead". Care to explain why?--十八 08:03, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To me, the word "herione" is more for adventure/action, etc type stories, i.e. the female version of "hero", whereas since this story is more a drama/romance type story, I thought using "female lead" would better fit it... however if you disagree, feel free to change it back. I mean, I don't really mind either way. -- Highwind ⁸₈⁸, the Fuko Master 23:46, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

From what I've found, the term "heroine" (ヒロイン, hiroin) is regularly used by the Japanese to describe the female leads in visual novels, and as such I've not only seen the term used by English-speakers in describing said female leads, but I've been using the term as well on Wikipedia for years now, this being the only instance where someone changed it, which is why I asked. Since it's in regular usage, I think 'heroine' should be kept.--十八 03:14, 24 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Sure, I haven't played VNs, so I don't know. I'll leave it as heroine from now on. -- Highwind ⁸₈⁸, the Fuko Master 01:14, 27 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Lol heroine can be used as both so i say leave it as it was -Leo- —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.94.39.6 (talk) 12:47, 30 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
