Forums: Index Improvements_and_Issues Poems and captions in articles?




I was wondering what people thought of/if there is any support for having a "poems and captions" included in the character profile articles. I ask because the poems that accompany the volumes in which the character featured are meant to give insight into the character/be a composition of the character. So including them, even just in the trivia section (or maybe quotes for the poems), might be interesting to readers of the profile articles. In addition, sometimes, not always, when characters appear on the cover. Kubo has a caption accompanying it that also can be perceived to be insightful. To give an example of what I am talking about, please find below captions from chapter covers and volumes covers/poems from a few selected characters. I mean, I understand that at least with the volume covers, all a reader has to do is go to the chapter section of the wiki and look up the volume on the cover of which the character appears. But chapter cover captions are harder to find. So I thought that collecting them into the profile article might be interesting. Tinni (Talk) 08:33, January 9, 2010 (UTC)

Ichigo Kurosaki

  • "We fear that which we cannot see" - volume 1
  • "No, nothing can change my world." - volume 19

Ichimaru Gin

  • "Those who do not know what love is liken it to beauty. Those who claim to know what love is liken it to ugliness." - Volume 20
  • "The intent to kill, that is as beautiful as love" - all colour but the black

Hisagi Shuhie

  • "The only true fear is to become a warrior that doesn't know fear." - volume 39
  • "It is all his own doing. The scar, the tattoo, the katane... " - cover of chapter 325

Aizen Souske

  • "We think a flower on a cliff is beautiful because we stop our feet at the cliff's edge, unable to step out into the sky like that fearless flower" - Volume 12
  • "Above heave, above stars, and even higher still" - all colour but the black

Komamura Sajin

  • "This body is huge, but it can't contain my loyalty!" - all colour but the black
  • "Never retreat - he has this body for this very reason" - cover of chapter 327

Orihime Inoue

  • "If I were rain. That joins sky and earth that otherwise never touch. Could I join two hearts as well?" - volume 3
  • "We -As one, Are not intertwined. As two, Do not share the same form. With three, Only one's person does not have. With four, We have no hope in that direction. As for five – It comes from the heart's place." - volume 27

I think that would be an interesting thing to add. As you said it shows insight towards the character from Kubo's point of view, even if it is hard to understand in some cases, it is still his thoughts on characters he created. I say it would be a good addition =] Pyrosco

What do you guys think of the following manner of presentation? Tinni (Talk) 05:06, January 17, 2010 (UTC)

Poems from the perspective of Ichigo Kurosaki
MangaVolume1Cover MangaVolume19Cover
Volume 1 - "We fear that which we cannot see" Volume 19 - "No, nothing can change my world"

I like it. I think it will look well organized that way. =] I take it all the qoutes will have some image with them, like the example you gave? Pyrosco 05:09, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

Post of the captains come from chapter covers, so yes. Tinni (Talk) 05:34, January 19, 2010 (UTC)

Sounds good. I take it you need more comments other then mine to get started on the page. Again, I say it's a cool idea and I look forward to whenever the page is up. Pyrosco 21:32, January 19, 2010 (UTC)
