Talk:Hidden Village of Koimaro

Move to Isolated/Hidden Village of Koimaro?

I've heard that when a 'の, no' particle follows a noun, it normally counts as an 'of', for example Zeruda no Densetsu, ゼルダの伝説 was translated to mean The Legend of Zelda where in other cases it might not count as an 'of'.

I also read that kakurezato (隠れ里, katakana: かくれざと) were a remote settlement in Japan during its Feudal period said to be inhabited by ninjas. Some sources refer to them as 'hidden villages', while others refer to them as 'isolated villages', though 'hidden village kakurezato' generally brings up more results on search engines than 'isolated village kakurezato' (I don't know if that's partly because they're called hidden villages in Naruto though). Should we therefore move this page to 'Hidden Village of Koimaro'? --Torchickens 06:29, 8 May 2012 (CDT)

Makes sense to me especially since both Shurikit and Kittana appear there. I've never fully understood particles so I'll just go with 'of.' Star Light 13:36, 8 May 2012 (CDT)

OK then, 'Hidden Village of Koimaro' it is then. I'll help with updating all the articles! --Torchickens 13:55, 8 May 2012 (CDT)

Thank you very much! Also, you're right. I really shouldn't blame myself. I know I haven't messed up very much here. Star Light 14:10, 8 May 2012 (CDT)

It really bothered me to see you like that. All your hard work on the Japanese games from the beginning helped make the Wiki to what it become today. We wouldn't have most of the enemy articles, for instance! --Torchickens 14:44, 8 May 2012 (CDT)

You have a point. Sorry about that. I didn't mean to worry anyone. On an unrelated note, I finally figured out the deal with Ku! Since Riku means land and Kai means ocean, I looked up Ku in a few places and it turns out it's another word for sky or air! It's written as くう though, which explains why I didn't find it sooner. Riku stays on the ground, Kai swims, and Ku flies! It makes sense now. It adds up for those guys I mentioned earlier too! Star Light 11:31, 10 May 2012 (CDT)

It's OK. Great find! It all comes together now then. It's also creative how all of Kirby's original three Animal Friends are based on those words. In particular, how Coo is based on both owl sounds and the sky, and I never thought anything more of Rick than just the name. --Torchickens 14:18, 10 May 2012 (CDT)
