Yeah, this sort of nitpicking on the part of the translator is exactly why I distrust his/her work. And as you pointed out in a later post SS, "Green Memories" had the translator going back on this same anal retentive trait.
So yeah. I think Prime Blue's is pretty good.
I think, due to the popularity of this album, we might want to have the following tracklists on the site:
"Japanese"
"Romaji"
"English (common/dynamic)"
"English (exact)"
The former English being the old, popular tracklist where you replace "Maou" with "Magus" and all that good stuff. And then you have the accurate tracklist, which is what Prime Blue gives us.
