Is this the first time they’ve mentioned the dragon has historically importance? That actually explains some of the BS from the beginning of the series a little

Sorry for being anal for titles for rulers, but here's a translation question for anyone intrested.

What's up with kings ruling empires in Japanese media? Like, on page 6, the ruler of the "Mirdin Empire" is the "King of Mirdin". I checked the raws; the ruler, indeed, is a "king" (ミルディン王). Still, "King of Mirdin Empire" is just odd in English, when an empire would most likely be ruled by an emperor. Shouldn't it be "Emperor of Mirdin Empire", even if the mangaka used "king"?

This case isn't so bad, but in other mangas you get weird things like "Roland Duke", instead of something like "John Roland, Duke of Someplace" or just "Duke John". Or the worst I've read, where translators went very literal, translating one-to-one, paraphrased: "Gerhardt von Fahrenheit, Lord of Marquisate’s Domain, Count of Marquisate", instead of just "Marquis Gerhardt of Someplace".

well the panel refers to the guy as "King of Mirdin", so it could be his actual title.

also this depends on how this "Mirdin Empire" works as well, the title "Emperor" might have never been used there. for example, King of the United Kingdom was never called "Emperor of the British Empire", but the term "British Empire" is still used.

Yes, but more so, I was wondering if the word "王", while being the word for "king", is being used generally as "ruler". I know that, in English, we tend to have a clearer distinction between "king" and "emperor", but does this hold true in Japanese?

On the flip side, from what I gather, the "British Empire" was never a real title. Queen Victoria, for example, was Queen of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland and the Empress of India, not Queen of the British Empire, but, indeed, she may still be call as such. Then, the question is if we're talking about the "Kingdom of Mirdin" with its many external territories collectively called the "Mirdin Empire" or actually the "Mirdin Empire/Empire of Mirdin" that's oddly ruled by a king.

That said though, a couple of panels is very little to go on with.

If you are going to seal a guy away, why would you make it so the seal can easily be broken by his descendants? It's not like it took effort, he just touched the wall and walked in. I can only assume this is a weird flaw with the sealing method rather than something intentional.

It's also a bit of deus ex machina that the sealed person in question would know in the first place that a descendant would be the key to breaking the seal. Like, shouldn't sealing him cut him off from outside information like that?

Ok, so every male related to the MC is an asshole, right? He is the odd one of the family tree.
