Any chance of getting a translation for the Xun Zi quote from whence the title comes?
- "From the indigo, an even deeper blue." Or so this site says. I am hesitant to add it without confirmation that it is the correct quote, however; it even sources it from a different person to that of this article. Elric of Grans 05:19, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
- A quick google resulted in this site. The English translation provided ("The scholar may be better than the master") is dubious, but reading the rest of the site that's roughly the meaning. My own translation is "Blue is blueness surpassing indigo which comes from indigo" or, slightly less literally and with slightly less atrocious grammar, "Blue comes from indigo yet is bluer than indigo", roughly indicating the idea of "surpassing one's master". I'm not sure how to include the explanation in the article, though. If someone else can come up with a prettier translation/explanation, please do. Tropsy 21:26, 23 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Enishi the end?
The anime series was completed when its second season under the title Ai Yori Aoshi Enishi was completed in 2003
Is that official or just an assumption?08:03, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

- Well, they haven't made any more anime shows of it since then, so its a good bet that its the end of the anime series. FleetAdmiralJ 20:04, 23 March 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Why have seperate articles?
Why do we need to have a seperate article for Ai Yori Aoshi and Ai Yori Aoshi Enishi? They're the same series (just different seasons) and the only other difference, really, is that Enishi was aired on a seperate TV station. Therefore I'm proposing that Ai Yori Aoshi Enishi be merged into the main Ai Yori Aoshi article, and leave a redirect at Enishi to AYA. FleetAdmiralJ 19:52, 23 March 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Characters
I am seriously considering splitting the characters section into another article (as is the case with Chobits and several other anime articles.) The infobox is getting out of control and it's messing up the formatting in the characters section. If nobody objects, I am going through with it tonight. PiccoloNamek 12:11, 1 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Characters
I think you should add the minor characters to the character list as well. Suzuki, Satou, Aoi's mother and father, Ruka Saionji, Natsuki Komiya and Chizuru Aizawa.
[edit] Harem Anime?
If I diddn't know any better, after watching the anime i would think it would be classified as a harem type anime. Anyone else agree or disagree? -julius —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 128.208.125.77 (talk) 21:14, 27 December 2006 (UTC).
Well I think it is really a romance wrapped around a harem. The first four and the last three episodes can really stand by themselves as a really good romance, while the middle episodes are a, in my opinion, weak harem comedy. I don't think it does the work justace to tag it as harem. Corumplex 19:50, 1 January 2007 (UTC)
