Dewey pic
[edit]Shouldn't there be one? He is the main antagonist after all. 5 March 2008 (UTC)
Stoner
[edit]please guys, don't jump the gun on a few lines of dialog. I even went back again and watched that part. He only says that even without ray=out (him working on ray=out makes him apart of Gekko State in the first place, as Gekko puts ray=out out to leak information to the public) he'll stay with them taking pictures and recording events, since he can't fight in battle. Clearly he was always a member, and I don't see how this "demotes" him. Clearly the members of Gekko State include non-combatants as well. I say we ask someone at Nanashi Fansubs (on their forums) for some insight to this. --Ned Scott 05:09, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Agreed. But this lines serve to prove that he is not only a Photographer, but also a Journalist. Exukvera 12:29, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
- He's listed under GekkoState in the official Eureka Seven website. Tenks 16:35, 6 February 2006 (UTC)
Anemone
[edit]The entry should be adjusted to note that while she is experiencing the headache she doesn't want the drug. The headache seems to be a withdrawal symptom or something. Plus, the immediate relief is similar to that of addiction. Hackwrench 07:30, 25 June 2006 (UTC)
Pronunciation
[edit]At the bottom of the Eureka Seven main page, under "english dubs", I quote: "This choice by the dubbing staff is a subject of contention among fans, and it is unclear if the creators of the series intended for Eureka's name to sound like the word or not. Ironically, while the Japanese voice actors mispronounce 'Anemone', the English cast say her name as it would be pronounced in English."
I don't believe this is correct. In English, "anemone" is pronounced uh-nem-uh-knee. So far, I've heard two pronunciations of Anemone in E7: "uh-nem-uh-nay", and "uh-nem-uh-neh". Neither matches the English pronunciation, so I take it that somebody messed up? -70.111.21.119 15:43, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Perhaps that quote should be taken off. The English version is "uh-nem-uh-nee", for those who didn't know. - サイレン 12,55, March 7th, 2007 [ETC]
Actually I think it would be "ah-neh-mo-neh" in english. It's a subjective subject. Toxic Ninja 07:25, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
Gonzy
[edit]Shouldn't we mention something about Gonzy being a Coralian?
- This is meant to be an overall description of the series, not a list of all the spoilers we can think of. Random spoiler facts like that are useless to anyone who's seen the series, because they'd already know those facts, and they're undesirable to most people who haven't seen the series, because they're spoilers. If you want to write a thoughtful piece on how Gonzy's true nature affects his role in the series and his relationships with the other characters, though, that would probably be more appropriate. -- Asterphage 22:22, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- Someone wrote something about Gonzy that makes no sense to me. I am no expert on Eureka Seven, so I cannot guess was was intended, but the section on Gonzy says:
- Unlike Sakuya and Eureka, it is never hinted that he could have existed.
- What is that supposed to mean? It should be clarified because right now it sounds like gibberish. -- Lilwik 01:39, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
- It's about how Gonzy's existence as a Coralian (as opposed to just some dude) was never hinted at during the course of the series, unlike Eureka (in the first episode) or Sakuya (later on). That is awkardly worded, though. —TangentCube /c /t 01:58, 11 March 2007 (UTC)
Hilda
[edit]Does anyone have a really, really reliable source on her age? Eureka-prj.net says 25, but eurekaseven.bandai-ent.com says 28. I'm inclined to believe the Japanese materials over the American in general, but this could be a one-letter typo on either side. -- Asterphage 22:35, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
- In Episode 22(dub), Talho says that Hilda is one year older than her. 68.0.99.130 06:27, 8 December 2006 (UTC)
Eureka
[edit]Should we keep the edit made by 24.178.71.185 about Eureka's fate at the end of the series? I know I'm new to the series and it kinda ruined it, so I say remove major spoilers like that from the main Eureka Seven page, at least until the show makes its complete run on AdultSwim. RogueJedi86 15:57, 29 June 2006 (UTC)
Well, at the end of the series, Eureka is shown to be 16 years old, the same age as Renton. Is it safe to consider her 14?
- Never assume anything. Unless it's said in the anime what her age is, leave it unknown. dposse 21:48, 17 July 2006 (UTC)
- He's referencing the adoption certificate seen at the very end of the series. So, officially she's 16 at the end, but nothing points to her actual age or her apparent age otherwise. 24.4.105.240 01:51, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
The article list her hair color as teal. This is inacurate as teal itself is a more darker color. A more acurate description of her hair color would be turquoise. Sarujo (talk) 15:09, 21 February 2008 (UTC)
Since nobody's going to argue this after three months, I guess I'll go ahead and make the change from teal to turquoise. Sarujo (talk) 20:18, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Voice actors
[edit]I've added in VA/seiyū information, bringing the article in line with other anime character lists I've seen, using FLCL as a refernece for the table. I've left in the tables (commented out) for characters I couldn't find info for, so they can be added in later. The seiyū names should probably be looked over by someone more familiar with Japanese, though. -- TangentCube -c 03:04, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Renton
[edit]Quote from article: "There isn't a place he hasn't traveled that his last name won't ring a bell to anyone." Soes this mean that his name is well known in all the places he has not traveled to, or that his name is well known everywhere, or that wherever he travels, someone knows his name? This sentence needs to be cleaned up. --Ximm 04:23, 30 July 2006 (UTC)
Well it means he has the same last name as his famous father. But I see what you mean, its a quadruple negative. Isn't, hasn't, won't, anyone(I'm about 50/50 on this one). But I've been looking at it and their isn't a simpler way to say the same thing in such a poetic fashion. Toxic Ninja 07:23, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
Norbu
[edit]The English dub very clearly pronounces it "Master Norb," and the Adult Swim Fix page spells it that way, though briefly during "Pacific State" if you squint really hard at the sheet of paper on him you can see it still reads "Norbu" for his name. What name should we use here? 68.0.99.130 01:29, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
- I'd say go with Norb, since we're using everything else from the dub. -- Tenks 01:38, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
Trivia
[edit]Could Will be H.P._Baxxter of Scooter?
- While viewing the Scooter page I noticed this- ["Respect to the men in the ice cream van!" - Weekend, 2003 , no spelling mistake in "men", it refers to the UK-Dance-Formation "KLF" who usually drove around in that kind of vehicle.] does anyone think "KLF" has any significance to Eureka 7? Nicknchops
In the reference to Renton's uncle, the Jet Black stated is from Cowboy Bebop but the link itself goes to Jet Black the English Drummer. Was this intentional or a mistake? should it be corrected? Nicknchops 01:12, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
Who are these Characters?
[edit]Who are these Characters?
It's the 13th DVD of Eureka Seven link to translated DVD pageStrike Chaos 01:40, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- I assume those two are Renton and Eureka. —TangentCube /c /t 02:33, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Didn't you notice that the boy had the Coralian wings and the girl doesn't thats the opposite of Renton and Eureka. Not to mention the boy's hair is lighter and slightly more goldieh and the girls hair slightly darker with a Misty hair style. I could believe if the boys is Renton and Eureka's Greatgreatgreatgreatgranchild or somthing but it didn't appear in the anime so I just want to know so we can update the article if there is any info on them. Strike Chaos 03:21, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- i would suggest you wait till more information is available before you do anything, and now i am really confused by that NekrosKoma 03:59, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Agreed with the above; sure one can assume that the boy is the child/descendant of Eureka and Renton, but until more information becomes availible, there's nothing more to it than a picture on a DVD cover. I have seen this picture before, but as far as I know, there is no information availible on these characters. 68.0.99.130 04:03, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- I go with the "artistic license" excuse, because it's easier. —TangentCube /c /t 04:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- More info it's out now. Strike Chaos 04:50, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Where? -Babelious 19:15, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- I go with the "artistic license" excuse, because it's easier. —TangentCube /c /t 04:41, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Interesting photo... can you link to the new information? We can't really add speculation to the article, no matter how good it sounds-- there's the whole verifiability thing. Magus Melchior 07:13, 18 December 2006 (UTC)
- Isn't the only "new info" that it's the Volume 13 DVD cover? If I'm wrong correct me, but I don't think that the DVD set contains any information on the characters pictured there. 68.0.99.130 03:29, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
- I've drawn up a theory with the information available in the finer details of the picture. Since the two kids both have surf boards its safe to assume this was before the exodus of earth(surfing was mentioned in the episode "pacific state" as something people did hundreds of years ago similar to lifting), as the scub coral is seen in the background and since it isn't covering the whole sky yet, this was very shortly before the exodus and the scub coral was still growing. Now that we have a time frame the rest is all assumption. It's most likely the boy is the first human coralian and the girl is his chosen love like eureka(coralian) and renton(love). Ofcourse this is all conjuncture, and has absolutely no effect on the plot. Toxic Ninja 07:34, 14 July 2007 (UTC)
- I think it makes more sense the other way around. That scub coral is the stuff left behind after they leave Earth, the two kids being Renton and Eureka's offspring. It's also on the final DVD cover so it's assumed it shows the future. - The Norse 03:17, 16 July 2007 (UTC)
After who leaves Earth? Eureka and Renton don't, they are shown at the end of Ep 50. I agree with the anon below that it would screw up their family, of course it might be in the future on the planet that Gonzy said the Scub Coral would go. -Babelious 19:19, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
- If they were Eureka and Renton's offspring then it would screw up their family, being an analogy to the Japanese names for the fingers. That boy might even be Gonzy and the girl might be the first Command Center, and Eureka being made in "God's image" per say. Also in the flashback to when the Scub Coral reaches Earth it first made contact with a ship named "Eureka". 76.16.187.218 (talk) 15:08, 22 December 2007 (UTC)
Eureka 7 character designer and product illustrator Kenichi Yoshida has the DVD covers up on his website, with comments: http://gallo44gallery.web.fc2.com/dvd_jake.html I don't know if it says anything useful... --Asterphage 05:18, 18 July 2007 (UTC)
- New info/take on things: Alright so it has been thought that these kids are from the past on Earth, or (at least I think this was mentioned), the planet where the Scub Coral moved to, but if you pay attention on the last episode when Earth is shown, halve the upper parts of the continent have been destroyed, so halve the planet is still covered with Scab Coral. This would explain what these kids are doing, they are about to go surfing under the Eureka Seven world. As far as relations go, it is quite possible they are Eureka and Renton's offspring, of course the question of what happened to their other kids raises. But this is all something to think about. -Babelious 19:09, 9 January 2008 (UTC)
Peer review?
[edit]I noticed that the peer review template has been sitting there for a while. Did anything come out of that? Magus Melchior 03:46, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
- I don't think there ever was a peer review. It seems (to me) like the templates at the top of the main article talk page were simply copied over to this page. —TangentCube /c /t 04:02, 21 February 2007 (UTC)
Very confused
[edit]I just watched the last episode, and there was nothing of the epilogue described here in the characters section, in which Eureka marries Renton and the kids' are shown to have the last name of Thurston, implying they've been adopted.. or any such thing like that. The two kiss and it's over. Did AS cut out the epilogue or is there one more episode left after #50? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk • contribs) 23:31, 28 April 2007
- The airing on Adult Swim was cut abruptly. —TangentCube, Dialogues 05:34, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- Those VONDROOKS! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.72.21.221 (talk • contribs) 20:01, 30 April 2007
- Yes Adult Swim cut the monologue in the beginning of the last episode and the epilogue at the end, they showed it the next day on Saturday with all of that put in. -Babelious 19:22, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Plot summaries in a character list
[edit]Some of these profile entries, Renton's and Eureka's in particular, are mostly a description of the plot of the series. These parts should be excised in the interests of both length and the topic at hand. —TangentCube, Dialogues 07:09, 29 April 2007 (UTC)
- I agree. I don't think I've seen as much plot summarization as this ever! I think a serious re-write is in hand. Both Renton and Eureka are important protagonists and Eureka 7 being the uber-cool anime that it is deserves a wiki to live up to it's standards. -Tekus Xyrkondera 09:08, 21 July 2007 (UTC)
- Still needs one. Showers (talk) 22:58, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
Hollands Tattoo?
[edit]Mannaz Tattoo Symbol - Mannaz is the Germanic name of this RUNE, also known as man in Anglo-Saxon, madr in Old Norse, and given the modern phonetic value of “M”. Its traditional meaning is associated with man or human.
I'd add that in, but I'm not sure if I'm right or not. Anyone? Bueller?
- A lot Holland's past is explained in the games. --Kraftlos (Talk | Contrib) 12:15, 29 January 2009 (UTC)
popculture references
[edit]- In episode 39, Eureka's soccer jersey is number 7. Quite probably a pun for the series' name but may also be a tribute to the everlasting popularity of David Beckham, who wears number 7 when playing for England and wore the number playing for Manchester United.
isn't it pushing it "a little"?--Ghazer 17:47, 2 August 2007 (UTC)
- It is quite a stretch. I added something to that a while ago mentioning that it's probably just a pun for the series' name but evidently someone took it off. - The Norse 01:54, 3 August 2007 (UTC)
- Too much of a stretch, I would take that out, how many other soccer players have "7" jerseys? -Babelious 19:02, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Better screenshots?
[edit]Is it possible to get pics of the characters that don't have that timer in the upper left? I know that a lot of the eps of this series from certain sources do, but it can be cropped out if you could find the write screenshot, right? Quite distracting. BrokenSphereMsg me 23:58, 23 August 2007 (UTC)
- If I recall correctly, the article did have clock-less screenshots, nine or so months ago. Someone came along, replaced them with the current clocked versions, and reverted anyone who opposed the change; now all the original ones that became orphaned have been deleted under CSD I5. —TangentCube, Dialogues 01:16, 24 August 2007 (UTC)
That was me <_< I can get better screenshots if you prefer, but they will be in the earlier part of the series. A lot of the last episodes have the timer in the corner on the DVDs I have for some stupid reason. If you guys wanna go ahead and get them yourself, be my guest, but could we please keep the images on the page for now until you guys DO get the screenshots? It's rather annoying, if you ask me. サイレン 05:48, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
- I don't normally deal with images, but will the use of screenshots address the WP:NFCC concerns brought up by those that removed the images? The last thing the article needs is more people edit-warring over them. —TangentCube, Dialogues 06:35, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
Anemone's Badger
[edit]What was the name of Anemone's pet badger that had the ability to change its weight? Should he be added to the character list? Otisbum 00:49, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Gulliver. And no; if anything, a brief mention in Anemone's section should suffice. He doesn't really do anything important. —TangentCube, Dialogues 02:04, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, thanks. I can never seem to remember his name. Otisbum 20:56, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
- Well he does bring Anemone and Dominic together when they are free-falling. -Babelious 19:01, 7 January 2008 (UTC)
Proposed Change, Anemone 09/07
[edit]The article states along the lines of "its unknown why she is so willing to follow dewey" however late in the series she herself tells us the reason for this, she says that she believed if she didnt do everything he said and met his expectations that she would be disposed of. Likewise her origin is as one of the sleepers forcibly awakened by drugs. 83.104.138.141 16:25, 9 October 2007 (UTC)
Fair use rationale for Image:Gekkostate.jpg

Image:Gekkostate.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Anemone/Gulliver
[edit]Some of the characters seem to be modeled or named after someone else. In the book Coin Locker Babies by Ryu Murakami, a character named Anemone resembles the Eureka 7 character. The book's Anemone owns a gigantic, overgrown pet crocodile named Gulliver, who does not really do much but is deeply loved by Anemone. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 98.213.117.173 (talk) 03:59, 23 May 2008 (UTC)
Plot details
[edit]The details that were added to Eureka (Eureka Seven) and Renton Thurston by an IP hopper (and which I boldly removed, which means no discussion is necessary when someone makes a bold edit unless it is reverted) violate WP:INUNIVERSE, WP:OR, WP:PLOT and WP:POV. Relationships are unnecessary additions and would be better on a Wikia page. Reliable sources for plot details would be the episodes in question.
