Noone actually uses "The Genji and the Heike Clans", not even Namco themselves. Even barring that, localized titles should never be defaults.

They should if the title is localized, and if they aren't then there should be option for it (like 3rd name), and that could be locked upon which name fits better with voting or something.

It is an official localized title and it should be there (products field in this case). You shouldn't remove it, Despatche. No discussion about this.

Any attempt to remove official English localized title will be undone.

I've gathered that this album had two different obi variants: a yellow obi and a white obi. Here are pictures of both from auctions:

Note that the printing itself differs, so it's clear that one is not a faded version of the other.

I see the white obi has a lower price than the yellow (3008 yen vs 3200 yen). Maybe this means the white is the earlier print.

A lot of albums got new printings after the consumer tax was introduced in 1989, so the yellow one is the original print.
