    Default I've Always Wondered, What does "Ran no" mean?

    I know Jidai means Age or Period, as in "an age of total war."
    But what does Ran No mean?

    'no' = 'of' more or less
    'Ran' = 'War'

    So basically it means 'Age of Strife.' I've think people have complained aobut hte name being backwards or something.

    Hence the "Jidai no Ran" sig, I'd say it's probably wrong. "State of War" is more like it.
