京×PUNちゅま

Ooh, I'm surprised this name hasn't come up yet! 池田 is read Ikeda, Iketa, Igeda, or apparently Ichida. It's among the top 30 Japanese surnames.

池 is read ike or chi, and it means pond, cistern, pool or reservoir. By radical, we've got 氵water and 也, which I recognize mainly as meaning 'also' in Mandarin. In classical Japanese, it was the verb 'to be,' read nari. It's also the source of the hiragana や ya.

Have we ever done a first name before? Or a hiragana name? ゑみ is functionally read Emi, but technically, it's really Wemi because it uses the mostly obsolete kana character ゑ we.　

In modern Japanese, the W sound can only be combined with the vowels A or O, but this wasn't always the case. There used to be characters like ゑ we (katakana: ヱ) and ゐ wi (ヰ) that have fallen out of popular use but still appear sometimes, which is always VERY exciting for me. If you want to type them on a Japanese keyboard, enter 'wye' or 'wyi,' respectively.

A new set of BluRays in a VHS case will be released with footage from tour22 Resonance of the corpse.
