Change Default Anime/Episode Title Type

Post by TazRulez »

I would like to change some preferences in my profile and one of the things I would like to change is the default title types. Here are a few examples:

Title: Kareshi Kanojo no Jijou
English title: His & Her Circumstances

Title: AA! Megami-sama
English Title: Oh My Goddess!

I have been trying to change the title types to english, but everytime i click the change language options, it keeps reseting to the romanji titles. Is there a glitch in the code or is it an option not yet available?

it doesn't reset the setting. it's only wrong shown under profile atm. ignore that. the setting works anyway

the setting is responsible for how titles get shown in your mylist.

Let me restate what Der Idiot said, hopefully a little more clearly.

In the profile, if you change the setting and click "Change Lang Options", it DOES change the way the system works. There is a bug on the profiles screen though, it will go back to showing Romaji, regardless of what the setting is.

Where the change occurs is in mylist. So if you make the change to English and then look in mylist you will see the English names when available. The rest of the system does NOT follow these settings, so if you do a search, look at the animes subbed by a group, ... these will use the default settings which is to use romaji.
