General isn't enough for the rank of "Shogun", though, as a Shogun is a supreme commander. Hell, his theme song refers to him as "King of Devil". I think the "Prince of Devils" or "King of Devils" might have worked better.That's where I'm afraid I'd differ in opinion. Personally, I feel "Akuma Shougun" is a title that the being that is Goldman fashioned for himself. But if you feel that it is more a name than a title, that is fine. You are the better translator, after all.
You have a point but I guess I differ in that we didn't know it was Goldman until the reveal near the end. At that point, it would work to say he was "The Devil Shogun" or the "Devil General". But I guess since that would confuse people until they realized that the Devil Knights leader was Goldman, keeping it merely a name of Akuma Shogun feels better.
The dictionary I use most and has been one of my most trusted tools puts "Shougun" down as "general", as a noun. As a personal title, however, it comes out as "Grand General", the title of one who ruled under the Emperor's reign, up until 1868. So perhaps "Grand General Devil" or "Grand Devil General" might work better.
That said, "taishou" is another word for "general", with the "shou" coming out as "general" or "commander", so I take your point.
Update (7/1/2012 [7th Jan]) - Years away can calm a mind down quite well. I don't think of myself as some maligned martyr of the site. Rather it's just that I was unfortunately caught by the mudslinging of a rather unpleasant (and unprofessional) translator, who didn't like people taking the spotlight away from him, particularly if they happened to actually be able to properly translate work, as opposed to him. Nevertheless, despite the fact that all my work was my own, I got constantly accused of plagiarism, thanks to this unpleasant individual constantly saying how I stole his work. (When rather, it was going to end up being the other way round.)
I'm a lot more forgiving about the whole ideal, with how I ended up getting treated on this forum, as a result of this incident, but at the same time, I am still not in any mind to come back and join in again, nor will I uplaod any more of my translation work on here. This includes any of my old work, or my newer and much more accurate work. Some may see this as being petty, spiteful or based off an old grudge, and you may be right. However, I thought I'd explain things a little.

Family problems just flared up, so I won't be able to do anything new for a few days. Sorry.

I didn't say it would, I just said that this is how you use a Choujin that they never used even once in characterization or fighting. It takes a weird parody/homage to get Koubellman out there and use him for what he's worth instead of just as a BG face.

He was the editor for the Kinn Lady segment of Team Kinniku, but I don't think he's been around here much. I wonder if he knows that Kinn Lady is being translated again?
I have his MSN, but he told me he was doing Kin Lady in the day, after, Ataru had realesed his script. I'll ask him what happened.

I used my spare time playing ExciteBots for Wii. With the WiiWheel.
If you guys need an extra proofer or something, give me a shout. Fan fiction writing is not all that great when your effort is ignored in favor of a self-insert Mary Sue fic.

Okay, "this and that"'s finally done, so back to work I go.

Suguru is just too stupid (or just has bad memories after seeing him being dragged down by Wolfman in the Tag arc) to use Brocken...it's sad but that's all I got.
