5-ji Kara 9-ji Made: Watashi ni Koi Shita Obōsan → 5→9 From Five to Nine – Articles about TV programs should be titled after what the program is tiled for an English-speaking audience. This one is titled 5→9 From Five to Nine on Viki, and that is also the title it is sold under by its original network: https://www.viki.com/tv/38125c-59-from-five-to-nine https://www.fujitv.com/drama/5-9-from-five-to-nine/ https://www.fujicreative.co.jp/for_buyers/more_info/tabid/106/pdid/696/Default.aspx

However, that title uses an unusual character, and I'm not sure if the Manual of Style allows it to be kept, nor what it should be replaced by. That title also lacks a colon where it should grammatically have one; 5→9: From Five to Nine makes more sense, but it isn't what any of those pages use. 2A00:23C7:5485:2C00:604A:E3ED:DF43:D48D (talk) 03:45, 12 January 2022 (UTC) — Relisting.  — Amakuru (talk) 11:04, 20 January 2022 (UTC)— Relisting. — Coffee // have a ☕️ // beans // 18:26, 2 February 2022 (UTC)

• Move to 5→9: From Five to Nine per WP:USEENGLISH. I think adding the colon for readability is helpful and appropriate, especially since "From" is capitalized in the sources, but according to our rules on short prepositions it would not be able to be capitalized if there is no colon there. So to preserve that capitalization, we need to insert a colon or else it would be lost. If we don't add the colon, then the title will have to be 5→9 from Five to Nine.

• Move as originally proposed, i.e. to 5→9 From Five to Nine. The common usage seems fairly clear, and there is no need for us to add a colon which isn't found in sources, just so we can capitalise the "From". We can just capitalise it anyway, per WP:COMMONNAME and/or WP:IAR.  — Amakuru (talk) 16:29, 27 January 2022 (UTC)
• Move to From Five to Nine. Currently redirects to this article and always has, following its several moves, including a possible cut-and-paste. There is no need for more natural disambiguation than this. It is trivially more concise than any title of which it is a substring. Andrewa (talk) 00:59, 29 January 2022 (UTC)
• Support as proposed What Amakuru said. This is an interesting case that highlights some of the absurdities that come up in move discussions discussing if we need to ignore usage in reliable sources in order to adhere to our manual of style on capitalization and punctuation -- the idea that we need to add in punctuation to the title, contrary to its usage in sources, so that we can meet its common name capitalization, or otherwise we would be forced to break with sourcing to use a lowercase version, is ridiculous when there is a clear answer to "what is the common name in English language sources." Let's go with that clear answer, rather than intentionally choose to use a version that we know is not the commonly used one!--Yaksar (let's chat) 22:36, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
