FUZE=Kazakiri
According to the original version of the novels, this is the correct way to spell 'FUZE=Kazakiri'. If anyone else is mixing this spelling up in other articles, please correct this. Flere821 21:57, March 2, 2011 (UTC)

Adding to my comment above, if anyone disagrees with me otherwise, PLEASE, provide proof of some kind so we can verify it. It'll be a lot more efficient to have a editing war with both sides convinced the other is mistaken. Flere821 03:06, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

Fuse Kazakiri. --Klobis 03:45, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

You should have uploaded that file into a image sharing site like photobucket or imgur Klobis if you simply need to prove a point (since the image is only going to be used once here). However, more to the point, I agree with Klobis with this, the series seems fond of using the "=" sign to connect two names together, I don't know why you guys made Kazakiri an exception here though. -TheGreatEye 15:45, March 12, 2011 (UTC)

Using a "=" to separate names it's fairly a common practice, specially for foreign names that aren't written on Kanji, for what I read once the reason of why that has to be there in order to properly separate first name from last name it's because japanese does not include the uses of spaces between words and thus some names can cause the reader to mess up on what's the actual name and what's the actual last name without a something pinpointing it out clearly. On topic, I take it that now we have the actual "work" of replacing every Fuze=KAZAKIRI for FUSE=Kazakiri in the wikia? -- Okashira - Imbued with Gold - 02:35, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

Okay, I concede that it is indeed spelled 'Fuse=KAZAKIRI', now that proof have been provided. Flere821 05:38, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

Now for an entirely similar matter, what about the "=" sign between Fuse and KAZAKIRI? Since it has an equal sign I assume it should be removed as well given how it is used by Japanese to refer to foreign names.---TheGreatEye 08:19, March 18, 2011 (UTC)

But we could also argue that Fuse=KAZAKIRI is meant to be a system, a machine; a trademark, a code name and as such we should keep the name as it is. オリアナ＝トムソン (Oriana Thompson) will never be romanized as Oriana=Thompson since it's a name, but FiveOver will never be romanized as Fiveover or Five Over since it's serial name prevents us from doing so.... But -of course- this point is subjective.
