"Jou"


Why are so many lazy people typing "Jou" instead of "Jounouchi" these days? It's like calling Kaiba, Kai or something. "Jounouchi" has a grand total of nine letters.

Surnames


It really bothers me when people are always calling Bakura by his given name, "Ryou"-- no one ever calls him or Jounouchi, Kaiba, Honda and Otogi by their first name. Maybe their family members and stuff but other than that... none. Zip. Nada.


"Ryou and Bakura"

Now this is even more confusing. Bakura's full name is Bakura Ryou. But because most people don't feel like simply typing out, "Yami Bakura" (10 letters) they simply refer to the spirit inhabiting Bakura's body as... Bakura. And then they proceed to call the real Bakura by his first name, Ryou. o.O

Dub names

I wish people would quit spazzing about them. What's wrong with having names that little kids can actually understand and pronounce? They are the targeted audience afterall. I doubt they'd like saying Anzu, Jounouchi and Honda over Téa, Joey and Tristan.

reverto?
