The great debate.

Who the FUCK says Aeris???

>>384458557
Pretty much everyone who played the game before they started forcing Aerith down our throats.

>>384458707
>Aerith

why in the living fuck would you start going with aerith.

vega, bison, balrog is still different for street fighter
we don't call megaman rockman
biohazard for resident evil

>>384458557

Hope you call Cloud "Kuraudo", and make sure you pronounce her name "Earisu" with the u sound at the end.

It is officially and canonically spelled Aerith in Japanese and English material outside the shoddy censored original localisation.

Aeris sounds better.

>>384459178
Because unlike those names, Aerith had her name corrected after the first release botched it. The others stuck in all material.

>>384458493
Teedus

>>384458493
The katakana is pronounced Earisu. But Japanese lacks the th sound, it lacks quite a few sounds really.
And seeing how the mother planet theme is strong in FF games, I think it was supposed to be a wordplay on Earth, so Aerith is the intended romanization.

why no Aeriz?

who /aerisdies/ here?

If I ever see anyone call Griffith, Griffis, they're going to get shot.

>>384462000
Is it okay to call her Guriffisu?

>her name is set to Aerith before the name choosing screen pops up
>they fucked up the screen and put Aeris

FF7 was legitimately a trainwreck of a translation and it was a major mistake getting rid of Ted Woolsey

>>384462176

It's Aerith. People who call her Aeris are used to calling her that because of the translation.

>>384462796
Aerith is pronounced by the Japanese as Aeris. Phonetically, Aeris is more correct.

What debate? It's Aeris.

>>384462446
>her name is set to Aerith before the name choosing screen pops up
>they fucked up the screen and put Aeris
Wait, what?

>>384462853
It's actually pronounced "Earisu" so unless you say it like that you aren't pronouncing it correctly. Not to mention it's Aerith in every official piece of media following that too. It's Aerith.

Sounds like a job for the IPA

>>384462853
it's Aerith because her name is supposed to be referential to "Earth"

>>384462508

Literally the same it was back then.

It's like a time capsule that someone is maintaining.

I can't pronounce the "th" sound at the end so I call her Aeris. This is the true reason why non-native english speakers prefer Aeris including the Japanese.

By that logic, this character should be named Marss

>>384462853

japs don't have the "th" sound, so it's aerisu

Both are correct, so go with however you wish to pronounce it.

why isn't it Earis then?

Aeris if you're a normal human being
Aerith if you're a gay man with a lisp

Aerith may be "correct" but I hate saying it because it sounds like I have a horrible lisp. So Aeris.

while we are on this topic..

it is kuririn, not krilin you fucks.

it is pikkoro, not picollo , you fucks.

prounouncing the "L" word makes me impotent.

R >>>> L

Fuck off.

>>384463879

Maybe the problem is just your lisp.
Everyone I know says it fine.

The funny thing is the only person I know with an actual lisp has more problem with s endings on words, ends up dragging them out pretty bad.

Marth honestly should've been named Mars to be fair. The greek-roman theme was pretty clear in Fire Emblem 1.

>>384464168
It just depends what you watched. If you watched the english dub, then those names are correct as per your frame of reference. If you're watching the Jap version and call Kuririn Krillin, then you're wrong. Don't be a cunt just because someone watched a different official version.

>>384465959
They later decided to "fix" the localization of her name by making it sound worse and less like her original Japanese name

>Aerith is the real translation!

>Because muh Earth symbolism!

Weebs are fucking retarded and everything after the original game sucks and should be ignored anyway.

When it was released here and i played it the name was Aeris, at least in Europe. Dunno where the Aerith comes from. Aerith sounds retarded now nonetheless. Sounds like some somebody with a speech impediment saying Aeris.

>>384458493

Aerith, not a debate just people being right and some choosing to be wrong.

This. Just play the game in Japanese and you have no problems.

There's no debate.

It's Aerith everywhere today.

It doesn't matter what was supposed to be at the time, it's Aerith.

>>384466869
Funny, it's still Aeris when I play it. Maybe my Playstation needs an update?

her name is ARERITSH

Was Kingdom Hearts the first game to spell it that way? I remember thinking she must have changed her name like Leon. She just sucks even worse than him at coming up with an alias.
