Thanks to Jon I learned that I always pronounced Takeshi wrong, god damn you ProtonJon
how would you pronounce it?
tay-keh-shee?
also that reminds me that my history teacher said that hiroshima is pronounced like
"hih-row-shih-muh" (or something kinda like that) instead of "hee-row-shee-mah"
i guess neither of them are technically correct, but the second one is more correct
