i do.
and first of all they never change names. maybe there is changed names,
but 99 percent is no change
and kenshin isnt messed at all.
Rurouni Kenshin = Ba-Ram-ui GumShim.
Ken is Gum, while shin is shim.
they take the meaning rather than just the pronounciation.
and Nin is in. what do you expect the korean company to title it? 루로니켄신?
no it doesnt work that way, since korean have their own way of saying
한문, they use that. While English doesn't have a word for 한문.
Ninpou in Naruto is translated as In-Bub.
and the names dont change.
Naruto -> 나루토 Na-Ru-To
Luffy -> 루피
