Sorry about that, I asked on the forum if these changes were possible and CakeBuu answered me there. Here are my reasons:


 * The term "resurrection" strictly refers to someone dying and coming back to life, while "revival" is a bit more vague (according to the dictionary, it can also mean "restoration to vigor", for example).


 * The Japanese word 復活 can be translated as 'resurrection', but also as 'revival' and 'restoration'. According to a comment from another user, it's also a staple anime word and it can even mean 'back to action'.


 * The link skill "revival" is also called 復活, just like 'resurrection' in the link skill "Resurrection F", but "revival" seems to be pretty common in this category, so there might be a connection between link skill and category.


 * Many characters in the category never died in the first place. Some were just sealed (Boujack, Majin Buu...), others simply gained new energy by various means (Z Sword Ultimate Gohan, Majin Vegeta...), and as CakeBuu pointed out in the forum, technically even the angel characters are not resurrected yet, because otherwise they wouldn't be angels.

The only reason why I wanted to change the category's name is because there are a lot of people saying that some choices don't make sense, like Ultimate Gohan or Bardock, when in fact it could have been just a translation misunderstanding. But I don't want to be one of those people on the Internet who always insist they're right without listening to others, so if you have a better argument for the term "resurrection" I'm willing to listen, I don't mind changing my mind. Although I do hope that my reasons are reasonable enough. In the end we all share the same goal, providing the best possible information to the players.

Thank you for listening and have a great day!
