I believe Viz used the original names for everyone in Sailor Moon (have they got up to Stars? I'd be interested to see what they did for Tin Nyanko's name, if they'd keep that as-is or translated it to Tin Kitty or something).
"Why do they always set it in Japan? Wouldn't it be more awesome set in the States?"
I would like to say that I was not accusing you of being rude. It's just the phrase you used "I am going to rip holes in people for not trying to pronounce the Japanese names correctly." sounds aggressive.
Kawaii is cute things, right? Is it pronounced like Hawaii with a K? (ka-why-ee?)What's kowai? I don't think I've heard that one and I'd like to not inadvertently offend people...
You can't always get every name right, but people appreciate the effort. I think that's what you're talking about too, you just misunderstood what I meant and who I meant it towards.
How I would pronounce Hawaii sounds closer to kowai than kawaii to me, but I am British so I don't know for sure the comparison.
