Thank you. I hope you see the logic of returning to English titles for Japanese anime shows.  The Naruto and Naruto Shippuden guides USED to use English titles, and the change to Japanese characters has never made a bit of sense to me.

To clarify for other people reading along: the intention of the policy is that official English episode titles can be used over titles in a non-Latin character set like Kanji. Official is when the titles have been created by (or in cooperation with) the show's creators and not by a random third party.

As stated in the policy, you can look at (next to the normally allowed sources) the show's official website, DVD/Bluray booklets, etc. When an episode is released on a streaming service like Crunchyroll on the same day as on a e.g. a Japanese TV network, that also counts as official.

I wanted to thank you for restoring the English titles to the Episode lists for Naruto Shippuden. Unfortunately, the titles for the original Naruto series are still in Japanese characters (except for season 1). Can those be restored to English too?  Thanks.
