Talk:Fireball Mario

Hinotama vs. Faiabōru

If you look at the image, 火の玉 is actually given the reading ファイアボール (although the ァ is not set in a small size). Should we romanize the name as "Fireball Mario" instead, provided that the rest of Super Mario-kun story arc does not indicate otherwise? --Dine2017 (talk) 02:35, May 15, 2023 (EDT)

Makes sense to me. Blinker (talk) 16:53, May 15, 2023 (EDT)

Tomorrow I'll screenshot the panels to compare them. Mariuigi Khed 17:33, May 15, 2023 (EDT)

Hinotama to Fireball

Personally, I thought the Hinotama name was cooler. Why change it to Fireball?
— The preceding unsigned comment was added by Randood (talk).

Because I didn't take in consideration the hovering characters in the name while creating the page, giving it a different pronunciation altogether. Example: without considering accents, I give an article its foreign name: no real problem since the name makes sense, however, officially the name is written in one way and those accents are now giving it a new meaning to that word. While Hinotama wasn't that far off, considering the subject, it is written in another way, which is Fireball. -- Mariuigi Khed 05:21, July 18, 2024 (EDT)
