Mika's Pile of Anime

Information: Name Changes/Puns

I'm sure at least some of you have noticed that in Japanese anime and manga, characters often are given names that resemble other things (aka puns). Another thing some of you may have noticed is that in the transition from original Japanese script to translated English script some characters get their names changed for whatever reason. It's not as common today as it was a few years ago, but it still exists. This section is dedicated to showing you the differences in Japanese and English names of anime and manga characters, as well as informing you of any puns that may be involved ^_~
