Hello again,
For those still interested, I haven't (completely) abandoned this
thing, although the minimal response (though not responses, all three of which
were more than appreciated) to my posting it has ensured that it has been
given a very low priority and will probably not continue passed the next
chapter should I have no incentive to keep going. The apparent collapse of
RAAC is also not exactly inspiring, that coupled with my inability to find a
decent working title - _Dark Chronicles_ is *sickeningly* cliched and
basically pathetic.
Ok, on to the SM question.
Having decided, after careful consideration, to use both sets of
Senshi (despite reading _Reality Check_, which happened to use more or less
every cross-reality idea I had intended to include :( (discounting its basic
premise of course) - ah well), I need some help with matching names, places
and abilities, having seen only bits of that American dub thing and no
original.
I've made a partial list below and would very much appreciate
additions/corrections.
--------------------
Note: `??????' means `what the hell is the name of the character,
place, thing in this version?' :)
`(?)' means `non-canonical (at least partial fanfic creation
and so to be very much avoided)?'

Well, that's all I have. Having not seen the Manga I've had to derive
the Japanese and original translations *entirely* from fanfic. I imagine
there are a tremendous number of mistakes and omissions and I would very much
appreciate any help. Also I need any info anyone can give me concerning the
outer Senshi (don't worry about spoilers) and any info concerning
personality/continuity differences between the original and the dub.
Thanks again for any help,
Craig
