I went with Kyoei Toshi for the page title because, as far as I can tell, "City Shrouded in Shadow" is '''not''' an official title. Every English journalist has taken to calling it this, but the earliest mention I can find is a Gematsu article that links to the official site that (thanks to the Wayback Machine) only called it "プロジェクト巨影都市" (Project Kyoei Toshi). It's not even a particularly direct translation and actually quite unusual everyone has decided on this in what seems to be a weird self-reinforcing circular fashion (it could have been from an NB press, but given the lack of any mention from NB on an English release I doubt it). I sent the author of that article an email asking where the name came from.
