"Shinto rituals" (Shin-ji) translates literally as "God work". This means that the word is also commonly used for "miracles". So, if you prefer that, you can switch the terms out.KrytenKoro06 20:56, 30 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Also, where do Kudagitsune, Tougetsuryū, Kassengeki, and Rairyūkyaku come from?KrytenKoro06 23:53, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

I just looked up the first attack, which doesn't seem to have been able to be translated... I used a combination of YesJapan and Google Translate. The romanization appeared as "Idzuna", the translation came up (Google Translate) as "Lizuna" but the phonetic audio actually says "Meshitsune". I searched the net and through YesJapan and I think I've found out what they've done. They've merged "Meshitsukai" (meaning "Servant") and "Kitsune" (obviously meaning "Fox"). I also found a few other Japanese attack names are made of merged Japanese words before, so this doesn't seem out of the question. It depends on what you think though, as I've always found Google Translates translations to English bad but never the phonetics, which are always correct to what you've entered. |Craigbrowndap 13:17, 10 February 2012 (GMT)
 * Are you talking about Kudagitsune or Izuna? Because Izuna was translated and we know what it means. It's a name.KrytenKoro06 15:56, 10 February 2012 (CST)
 * I'm talking about the one labelled Izuna... According to Google Translates audio and other sites audio, the Japanese text actually phonetically reads literally as "Meshitsune". I broke it down into tons of words (that search for not only whole words but parts of words from beginning or end) and Meshitsukai means Servant and Kitsune is obviously Fox... So with all the research I did, I'm pretty sure it means "Servant Fox", which correlates with the description for the attack, also. Unless it could be taken to be translated or worked out both ways? As I said, they have merged Japanese words before for attack names (as well as Digimon names, also). |Craigbrowndap 15:55, 19 February 2012 (GMT)

 * I'm well aware of that... but that's not related to the specific topic we're discussing... but I'm sure as anything there is no coincidence about it. It appears to have 2 meanings and 2 translations somehow. |Craigbrowndap 00:54, 21 February 2012 (GMT)
