For Rou's true name - Yes, it should be "Yatendouji" since that's what the katakana said.

For  【水精の卵】 - I'd say it's a case of 'unless we know wtf the ability does, it's impossible to make it a completely accurate translation', so we went with what made the most sense for the weapon, based on a previous weapon of the same class' having a similar ability.

About the katakana...we know that's how it should be (well...at least me and Mistelone, heh). I put the paranthesis there myself so that people would realize that that was the katakana, since you can't put Rubi on this site. ^^

Anyway, while there's cases where you're right...there are also cases where the katakana alone would make the word make zero sense to most people.

Here's an example:  輪緑石(リムストーン) - the translation for the kanji is "Circle Green Stone"...or green stones in a circle, which are known as "Rimstones" according to the katakana. However, there's no further description in Day 162 about the rimstones...and it just mentions a pool. For that reason, I made a brief description for "rimstones" based on the kanji before saying 'they're known as rimstones' and using rimstone alone after that. ^^

Now that I think about it, though...I might be able to make that part better if it's the way I think it is... ~Checks~ XD
