Should some mention be made of the book - i.e. both the original Japanese, and subsequent translations, such as the UK/English translation by Bonnie Elliot, published by Robinson of London. Not to advertise it, per-se, but just to cover the actual books that spawned the movie/TV show? AndyboyH 21:15, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
According to this article the producers of the show are Hideaki Anno, Yoshiyuki Sadamoto, Takami Akai and Shinji Higuchi. However, according to the article at DramaWiki [1] they are Wakamatsu Jisashiki and Kawanishi Migaku. Can anyone look from a Japanese source which of them really are the producers? Thanks. -- Thorri 18:10, 4 February 2006 (UTC)
In the cast list, the character names are listed in "Family-Given" order but the actors are listed in "Given-Family" order. Isn't it better to use the same order for both? -- awh ( Talk) 04:06, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Please leave the template on this page. One of the biggest reasons is that it may attract more good editors to the page and make the article even better. -- 日本穣 11:22, 22 March 2006 (UTC)
Please provide links showing this is the "official" title, and not just IMDB's bizarre title. As it is, it's completely redundant for a title. ··· 日本穣 ? · Talk to Nihon jo e 23:08, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
The only products released or announced in English are the three mangas from three different publishers, right? And they don't all use the same title. One just uses Densha Otoko. I suggest we stick with that. -- Pmsyyz 00:30, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
According to the main body of this article, the reader will be lead to believe 月面兎兵器ミーナ translates into Moon-faced Rabbit Weapon Mina, which is, in my opinion, a misnomer. 月面 literally translates into "moon surface". This is evidenced, for example, by Patrick Zala's (Gundam Seed) order to fire at the Earth Alliance's moon base: 「月面プトレマイオスクレーター、地球軍の基地」. Furthermore, I believe the title is actually a pun meant to imply Mina is actually the mochi making rabbit the Japanese see in the moon. 1. -- Ishikawa Minoru 20:35, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
I started reading the part that said "origin", and suddenly I had the whole story including the end spoiled to me. I put up spoiler warning, but "origin" does not sound as if it would tell you the whole course of events (even though it is a real story). I couldn't come up with anyone so I'm not changing it, but if someone has a better phrase, please do.

I just watched the film. I think there should be a separate article for it, linked from here, of course, and complete with a film infobox. Any opinions? Michiganotaku 23:44, 26 July 2007 (UTC)
Anyone know if the TV series is likely to be released on DVD at any time? I loved the film, and would be very interested to see the TV episodes. 217.155.138.250 21:37, 10 September 2007 (UTC)
Was the original 2ch posts and hence the story real or fake, be it the wishful imagination of a Hikikomori or more imagination of some exec/marketing type at 2ch or more like Fuji or Film/Manga producers? Should this be discussed in the article. 203.173.11.157 ( talk) 09:12, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
Shouldnt the movie be named first and the drama later in the article, since the movie came out before the series? Jim88Argentina ( talk) 17:50, 27 July 2008 (UTC)

There seems to be accessibility issues in the article making it difficult for the general reader.
