That's a good point, but sometimes the "in-universe" spelling isn't very accurate or consistent either, like Koopa being "Kuppa" in some instances, or Yoshi being "Yossy" although I guess those are lesser examples since they're pronounced the same either way... Kuppa is the standard romanization of the Japanese pronunciation. The official romanization is Koopa though. Yoshi has been officially romanized as Yoshi in most cases, Yossy does reflect the actual pronunciation better though in the case of the double s (though you still need to say sy like shii). --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss <cite>ssjevot posted [p:942036470] in Her name i...

The system of romanization taught in Japanese schools would spell is yossii (or with an accent mark above a single i, like ). They probably just spelled it that way because they though it was interesting. --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss <cite>ssjevot posted [p:942037181] in Her name i...
