@Lawlya
Ja <_< Genau.
Yeah, a note like: "Nezumi's stage name is "Eve/Eva" because
he's a drag artist." is way too confusing. X'D
Not after we had to read how Shion witnessed thievery, nearly
got shot because of that...and nearly got raped by a man...and
he was kissed by a **** and everything happened in less than 20
minutes.
A boy with a girl's name would be too much for our poor souls.

If Nezumi is a drag artist he might not be able to claim his
precious position as Official No. 6 Seme (aha, pun intended).
Therefore we must manlify him by changing his name.
Never mind that the name he normally goes by is f*cking mouse.
And it's a bit hard to hide the dress. =.=

X'DDDD LOL! I mean...tbh I prefer him as a seme (just the way I
also prefer long-haired Nezumi), but Shion as as seme is also
possible and nice. I don't understand why everything has to be
so black and white. They are interchangeable and that's why it's
so great and no run-of-the-mill (it's 08/15 in German XD) BL.
It's No. 6! We have a third option. And we have Inukashi. And
EVE.
Hey, maybe I should ask them to hire me... XD I could draw a
manly looking hulk Nezumi for them, to replace the "horrible
horrible" pages when he's wearing a dress, OMG... Children could
actually see it and start to become tolerant. <__<

We should really have a NezuShi sex headcanon thread somewhere.
...That's all I'm here to say. *SCURRIES AWAY*

One thing bugs me though, why should they care that the
pronunciation is the same as in Japanese? It's not like the
German readers are all able to read the Japanese manga or know
about it... So what kind of a difference would it make to
directly name him "Eva"?

And that, my dear @Yuneyn, is exactly the question I asked
myself in the very beginning ... But maybe they wanted to stick
to the Japanese pronounciation since they left Nezumi and
Inukashi. I would still prefer if they would have called him
"Eva" if "Eve" is too hard for our German audience ...

[member=18]Weisel[/member] I vote yes for the sex thread! And I
see it's already there! Wuhuu! X'D
I think it's not because of the pronounciation, it's mostly
because they thought it would be confusing for the readers when
Nezumi, who's obviously a male, suddelny has a female name,
especially since Shion is asking him: "Oh, is that your real
name? *-* Is it? Is it? *tugs on Nezumi's sleeve and licks his
head and wags the tail between his legs*"
That's why I can't understand it and... why their reason is
kinda frustrating.
It's just their whole way of thinking. Up to now the translation
was okay... I'd even say nice.
But now it's just: "Oh, he's a guy, so he can't have a girl's
name."
God, my last boss had a fucking old women nickname. Everone
calls him "Inge"... That's rather a name for a grandma.
Definitely female. XD (Well, it was just a short form of his
surname...which is of course male...) Really, everyone in the
entire department called him like that. We're about 50 people in
our department, all of us are between 20 and retirement age. And
none of them had the slightest problem to call him like that.
He's just a guy with a woman's nickname. ^^° It's not confusing,
and it's not a problem. It's just a name.
And not even the old coworkers had problems with it.
We're not in the year 1838. ò_ó

@Ahiku I actually thought about making that thread a long time
ago, lol. I just wasn't sure if there would be any support for
it. I'm glad to know there is, though, haha.
