I assume still pronounced "MoBeKiMaSu", though.
Tue Mar 06, 2012 4:35 pm
yeah, CU makes more sense than KI, for C-ute
Tue Mar 06, 2012 4:50 pm
They should have made it MOBECUMAS/.
xD

Eww. xD

if only they had named them モベキュマス (Mobekyumasu) from the beginning then MOBECUMAS wouldn't look SO weird.

about the same as seeing なっきー as NACKY and 乙女心 as Otome Gocoro.
Tue Mar 06, 2012 7:50 pm
The title was 乙女GOCORO, though.
Also don't forget Berikyuu, Icey!

ohh, that's right. still always seemed weird to romanize it as GOCORO instead of GOKORO to me, though. maybe they like the look of a round C when surrounded by O's cuz of the roundness? or maybe they've gotten used to "ko" as "co" from popular things such as "chocolate" and "Coco" (i.e. Chanel)? or maybe they're just crazy, confusing and inconsistent?

Berryz工房×℃-ute being pronounced as Berikyuu is different, that's just Tsunku being an ass.

Give me愛 and 夢見る 15歳 type insanity that he thinks is clever but he DOESN'T THINK ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO ARE TRYING TO KEEP A COMPREHENSIBLE DATABASE.

They just know that in the west K-sounds can be pronounced with C's and thus it's "cool". xD Same with えりか being romanized "Erica" for some people. ^^;

Like Idoling!!!'s Tonooka Erica. Of course, there was (is?) another Erika in the group, so.
