Katakana Master ^_^Y
So I finished Hikaru no Go in April's Shonen Jump and it was a major let down. We had a sub in Science so I tried to read DragonFlight. I got through one paragraph until I lost all focus.
But anyway I was watching Code Lyoko, which is a show I have just very recently started watching, and they either pronounced the romaji wrong or they romanized the original name wrong. If it is pronounced the way they say it in the show, it should be Lioko. Lyoko would be a slurring together of Li and Yo. This would make it a two sylable word and not the crappy three sylables they pronounce.
Anouther thing that gets me is people don't seem to realize that Yu-Gi-Oh! and Yu-Gi-Oh! GX are two different series. If you got o the quiz portion of this site or the wallpaper portion of this site and click Yu-Gi-Oh!, you'll get some GX things too. They are two different series. If they were not, Yu-Gi-Oh! would be today's Pokemon. Just like with InuYasha. It is the series that never dies. Yu-Gi-Oh! creators forsaw this and made a new series so that loyal fans could not accuse them of dragging something out to make money.
Well back to pronounciations...
I did the same thing I ranted about. A few years ago when I came up with the name Meeka, I pronounced it Mika, but I spelled it Meeka. I still do that to this day, but it I were to write it out in Katakana, I would write Mika. So yeah, for all of you guys who are saying Meka out there, it's Meeka.
Well Hannah, why don't you just change the spelling to avoid confusion?
Because, it is just like the whole Miyabi vs Miyavi thing. The name is pronounced Miyabi, but the J-Rocker writes it Miyabi 'cause it looks cooler.
:p
