Gantu's official title is Captain Gantu in the film's beginning, when Deep Space is thought to take place. I think this page should be redirected to a page under this name. -EternalNothingnessXIII 00:02, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

Please be more polite in your scolding, EO. And, Andie, Gantu is a he, and the Grand Councilwoman is a completely different, female character.

I saw you changed the name from Gantu to Capain Gantu, EO. I was looking at the scan, and it called him just Gantu (ガントゥ). And while I can't read kanji, I saw no characters, kanji or otherwise, pertaining to the word captain. I'd like to have a fluent User confirm this before I change it, though.

TerraCharm.png His official title is "Captain Gantu" in the beginning of the first film, when Deep Space is thought to take place. It's basically the offical Disney title. None of the Admins or mods have complained, so please leave this as-is. One scan cannot speak for countless other sources. And in actuallity, it was DoorToNothing that made this change for me. So long as the admins and mods are ok, which they appear to be, with it, then I wouldn't worry about it.

Fair enough, I won't change the article's name, but I will keep the name in the infobox as "Gantu" as that's the only name given to the character by the Kingdom Hearts franchise as of yet.

Xiggie Buy / Sell Welcome! What do you wanna do?

Just because we're kids doesn't mean we can't run a business— 18:10, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

blue.png Still, I think that we should keep his article name as just Gantu! both because we have not seen his title (as a part of his name) in any scans, and also because we never have "ranks" as a part of ones article name!

for example, we have Jack Sparrow, not Captain Jack Sparrow, although he prefers to be called that in the movie! We do have a redirect from Captain Jack Sparrow to his article though, and I believe that the same thing should be done here.

Ill have to agree, if so far there is little or no translation for the "captain" in Captian Gantu then it should stay Gantu until we have a translation where it says so.

i think he might and try to catch a princess of heart possiable canidate and mess up like hook--i smell like dirt 14:18, November 29, 2009 (UTC)

You're terrified, aren't you?

Um, no. Seven Princesses of Heart. End of story.

And none of the other villains know about Maleficent's existence yet, let alone other worlds.

True, chances are Gantu will be like Clayton or Shan - Yu and be working seperately, as i think most of the villains will in BBS. However Hades and Capt.

Whale not Fish[edit]

The movie and cartoon reference it more often, but Gantu is whale-based, not fish-based.Glorious CHAOS! 05:03, March 6, 2010 (UTC)
