This is specifically in reference to https://mangadex.org/title/30928/ , https://mangadex.org/title/43551/ , and https://mangadex.org/title/40188/ - but in general this applies to a whole bunch of other random renames I've seen go by.
Can we just f@#$%ing make up our minds whether we prefer Japanese or English title names instead of randomly switching between them in rename wars, and if we do prefer the English (I'm okay with that), at least translating them properly? Who is randomly deciding to change the titles of obscure series that have had the Japanese name for over two years for no good purpose? Yes, if you were translating it well then that might be okay, but you're not even doing that to make up for the confusion.
If the bad new title is official Engrish because it's been licensed or the author bing translated it, then fine - there should be some way to note that, maybe a shrugging icon.
