Talk:Berenice Gabrielli

About Berenice's the Question
About Berenice's ability, the Question, I read the part in Chapter 503 where Kenpachi explains how he killed the three Stern Ritters, but I don't understand how we know what her powers entail, considering Kenpachi said he couldn't hear her over Jerome's roaring. Could somebody help me understand where we got this information concerning her ability? DarkErigor (talk) 21:04, March 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * "The second guy started some long-ass explanation about questioning everything about me or whatever... // My ears were already ringing from the first guy, so I could barely hear him anyway... "--

Oh, I guess the translation I read wasn't exactly accurate...good thing you guys are here to sort everything out. Thanks God! XD DarkErigor (talk) 21:11, March 24, 2013 (UTC)

I do have one question, though, why was Kenpachi referring to Berenice as a him, instead of a her? DarkErigor (talk) 21:11, March 24, 2013 (UTC)
 * It's likely just Kenpachi not really taking the time to refer to people properly and just calling everyone "guy".--

Right, thanks once again, God. Probably should have thought of that myself. Oh well, at least it makes sense now! DarkErigor (talk) 21:19, March 24, 2013 (UTC)

What to call her ability
So, on her page it says that her ability is "to force her opponents into questioning everything about themselves and their abilities". So I'd like to propose that we call her ability something like "Self-Doubt Inducement" or something similar. Just so it can be listed under the Sternritter page.

Viz Media's Take on Gender
I was curious if anyone's yet picked up a copy of volume 57 published by Viz Media. I'm not sure what the policy is yet on how we treat Viz translations considering they are "supposed" to be the "official" English translations of the manga, but in the volume, they refer to Berenice as a "he" rather than "she." Would their official ruling and translation be enough evidence to change Berenice's gender to male in the context of the whole article? Auswahlen (talk) 04:52, July 11, 2013 (UTC)
 * Viz can be...bad when it comes to translating some things, i.e. referring to Akon as a lieutenant when he's only a 3rd Seat. Berenice was referred to as a she by Kenpachi in the original Japanese chapter, so until we get something official from, say, a databook or bootleg, she will remain as such.--Xilinoc (talk) 14:28, July 11, 2013 (UTC)
