Of course we should protect our language from more anglisms.
This is going a bit too far, in my opinion.

What do the fellow users think? This might work for other languages as well.
Actually it never ever crossed my mind to localize fantasy or sci-fi. Seems pretty pointless because the genres are known as that in just about every language IMO. BTW, shouldn't that be "Phantasie" if you are so hellbent on localizing it?
