I got problems with 2 syntagms:
その人気が不動のものとなっていたが, (is 不動 just firm? It looks so "median" and far away from excellent...)
2 - どのように展開するかも視野に入れた上でシリーズ構成 が検討されていた。
Summarizing: "series script (composition) was examined to develop this new 'panorama' (facts brought by OVA?)" Is it close to correct?

1. It means the popularity had become unshakably high.

2. It's saying that even though 修羅道編 had just started on TV, they were already envisioning how to develop the story even after 修羅道編 was finished.

Regarding that word ハーフ, was it not ハーン?

This is just a shot as I found there are the ハーン兄弟 in the manga.

Oh, He's half Japanese and half American? Then that's what we call ハーフ. I thought you said no when I asked about it.

I thought as much. :/ Thats why I asked for help. It's talking about time as a kind of concept; imagine if Stephen Hawking was talking about time. In English it gets described as though it were an object subject to events, like splitting, squashing, stretching etc, or in this case, folding.

How could I express that in Japanese? It need not make perfect, immediate sense, but it needs to make enough sense that someone could get the gist of the idea.

Ah, I was a dumbass...I thought when you talked about race, it was like mixed species (human + animal).

The only way "folding time" makes any sense to me in English is if we're talking, within physics, about the folding of spacetime (時空).

Even then, I've never heard of "folding time" ever.
