It probably should be "Rufus' Welcoming Ceremony" rather than "Rufus's Welcoming Ceremony" but I'm not 100% sure on rules governing possessives. I think it's along the same lines as a last name ending in s, you don't write Simmons's, you write Simmons'.

"Rufus' Welcoming Ceremony" is grammatically correct, but that's not the issue.

The issue is that the two titles I mentioned appear inconsistent, because they use different styles: one with the s dropped, and one with the s on the end. While one is plural and another is singular, I feel it should be consistent across the whole album (and also I just don't like how "s's" looks). But this is Prime Blue's translation, so I'm asking first.

Make sure to read the "Basic rule (singular nouns)" section.

Since they are different situations, I think we should just leave it as is.

I'm fine with leaving it as is. No further arguments from me.

Can somebody explain to me what "cinco" is? Is it some kind of thing in music or something? I can't find anything on "cinco" or "syncho", which is another translation I've seen of シンコ.
