Ok, thanks for the photos, but why don't you let "Fûma no Kojirô" too on the different albums pages? It is correct too.

This is the orthography the most employed in the world:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F%C5%ABma_no_Kojir%C5%8D
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/ency...ga.php?id=6573
http://scribe.seiya.free.fr/manga/kojiro.htm

And see well the first photo on the right, on this website:
http://www.planete-jeunesse.com/fiche-1898-kojiro.html

You have well written "Fûma no Kojirô"!

In France, we have too the VHS released by Kaze (a trusted editor) and we have "Kojirô!" for the title:

So, the 2 orthographies are correct

Kojirô! is the french title, so it shouldn't be used.
Fūma no Kojirō (note the difference, it's ō not ô) is the title using macrons, which you should always avoid here unless they are actually printed on the material.

"Macrons"? I don't know this word, what it means?
I wanted too to write "Fūma no Kojirō" like that, but I don't have this accent on my keyboard. I just think now than I can copy it on Wikipedia.
So what's the problem with "Fūma no Kojirō" on your website?

Remark: I've just given the French title for the used orthography (with "ô" and not "ou").

It's just a romanization standard (used by wikipedia among other things) we don't use. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hepburn...on#Long_vowels

It's very rare for it to be actually printed on that way on something japanese, so you should always avoid it.

Ok, thanks for the link
Well, I guess that you have certainly right for the orthography, this time again...
(In fact, you have always right? )
