[Dynasty Warriors] What’s up with the names being changed from Yasutoku to Yokutoku?

1: Japan Otaku Reviews

Let’s add Gendoku.

2: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In official history, he is Yiduo, and in the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, he is known as Yide.

It seems that the character of Yuyue, which originated from the storytelling version of the Romance of the Three Kingdoms, has been inherited.

The “Heiwa” originally had quite careless entries for people’s names, and it is considered a miswriting because “Yaku” and “Tsubasa” have similar pronunciations.

3: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx8

Fly → It’s better that way because it fits well over there…

4: Japan Otaku Reviews

I would have been happy if, after deciding on a name and raising the bond, they would call me by that name, like in Musou Origins.

9: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>4

Originally, calling someone by name is considered impolite in formal settings, so characters are used instead, which is the opposite.

5: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx6

When I say that Tsubasa and Gen are matching, the usual thing pops up.

24: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>5

They look alike…

6: Japan Otaku Reviews

There are probably puns based on the original pronunciation, but it’s a shame that they don’t reach us.

7: Japan Otaku Reviews

The fact that Emperor Guangwu was talking about assassins and persuasive speakers sounds like a pun.

8: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In any case, in current Chinese, both “benefit” and “wing” are pronounced the same as “yi.”

10: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that calling someone by their last name plus their title is common.

Like General Liu Zuo.

11: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx10

Yeah

>>10

Cao Cao

12: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Well, when I think that it’s natural for coworkers to address each other by their last names with “san” or by their job titles, it feels right.

15: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>12

It’s hard to understand even when it’s done in a creative way…!

16: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>15

In the Three Kingdoms drama, characters like Cao Zhi Ku and Xun Ling Jun (the Minister of Personnel) are referred to as military strategists in the alliances and secret emperors, but it’s something like that.

21: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>16

The rerun of the drama where it turns out that Emperor Xian is actually dead had a similar feel to that.

It’s quite chaotic, but that…

13: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

The left general was returned, right!

14: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

In Japan, the telegram “Inspect Saigo Takamori” became “Saigo wo shisatsu seyo.”

“Assassinate!? The government is trying to kill Professor Saigo!!!! There’s a joke about the Satsuma Rebellion like that.”

Words are difficult.

17: Japan Otaku Reviews

The way Jiang Wei is referred to as “Prime Minister” is quite realistic.

18: Japan Otaku Reviews

Calling by title alone can cause confusion.

19: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Even historical stories in Japan can be confusing due to the titles used for positions.

20: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

It’s like calling Manager Sato or Director Suzuki, so you don’t need to think too complicatedly about it.

22: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

It’s troublesome because there are so many Sato and Suzuki like Cao and Liu!

46: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>22

In our company, there are people with the same last name, and even the same position, so we usually just call them by their first names.

23: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Many readers seem likely to be confused by the change in positions.

25: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In historical works, the discrepancy between official ranks and actual roles is often considered a reason for their lack of accessibility.

26: Japan Otaku Reviews

The first Lu Bu is the accountant, after all…

27: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx5

It seems like there’s only one person who would be happy being told that the names Mengde and Xuande are similar.

28: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Yatoku, Gentoku, and then Unchou have no cohesion.

29: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

When it comes to the Three Virtues of the Han, it’s Manipulation!

30: Japan Otaku Reviews

Liu Bei seems to dislike it.

31: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

My real name is Syuran, but it’s also a nickname.

It’s like being called bad luck every time.

What kind of treatment does my first name receive?

32: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>31

There are people who call me occasionally, right!

33: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Guangdong

Cloud Long

Yatoku

I am virtue.

34: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Mengtou

35: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

Moutoku.

36: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want to declare myself as something like the two virtues of a Han, in a style similar to Shiba Hachitatsu.

37: Japan Otaku Reviews

Oh! It’s a double benefit with me and my big brother!

38: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Mix in the control as well.

39: Japan Otaku Reviews

Since it’s the wonderful Musou series, I think it would have been nice to be able to choose different names for the first and last names…

But I feel like it might become a hassle to decide on that as well…

40: Japan Otaku Reviews

I am a purple phoenix.

41: Japan Otaku Reviews

The distance between Cao Cao and Liu Bei is too much like BL, which is the problem.

43: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx4

>>41

Scary… I should run…

42: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

Is there an L from the other side…?

44: Japan Otaku Reviews

In that era, it was normal for men to have a close sense of distance between each other…

45: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Even in such times, it’s unpleasant to have someone I’m not fond of get too close!

63: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>45

47: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

I remembered when we were discussing our impressions and called Cao Cao only “Prime Minister” because that’s how he was referred to in Red Cliff, and he scolded me saying, “You don’t even know that?”

48: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

In an era of games without voice, it would have been fine to decide all the names yourself.

49: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Normally, since people associate their real name with their kanji, it’s somewhat understandable that if the name is “Hiryu,” the kanji would be “Yokutoku.”

And such things serve as a basis for the fact that Zhang Fei is of commoner origin.

50: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>49

So the comp must be amazing…

51: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that the long-lived Guan Yu is really being ridiculed, but was he actually ridiculed, which is why he became Yun Chang?

52: Japan Otaku Reviews

My origin is unknown, and I’m just strong, but maybe that makes me more approachable and easy to get along with than anyone else.

53: Japan Otaku Reviews

Both Ryo and Koumei have the nuance of being very bright, so it’s a proper name for someone with knowledge.

54: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

At the stage of the “Romance of the Three Kingdoms,” it seems that due to the convenience of dramatization or mistakes carried on by storytellers, a considerable number of characters appear with fictional names that resemble their real names.

The character of Tsubakidake survived until the end of the story, perhaps because his appearance was so impressive.

56: Japan Otaku Reviews

The story has quite a few name mistakes and corrections, but sometimes it confuses characters with similar names.

57: Japan Otaku Reviews

I want Cao Cao, who targeted married women, to be buried with Zhang Fei’s bones by mistaking him for Yang Guifei.

66: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx2

>>57

I can’t help but feel happy, even though it’s not on the level of Liu Bei or Guan Yu…

58: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s a blatant motif, but I’m being mindful and using a pseudonym, which is still a thing in modern times.

It might not have been a mistake, but rather an intention.

59: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx3

Zhang Fei, with this kind of visual that has been used in homoerotic contexts, probably had a certain popularity among those people since ancient times… it has an unpleasant persuasiveness.

60: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

What kind of appeal is it to be on the same palanquin?

62: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>60

It’s not like we’re trying to appeal to anyone; we just get along well and spend time together all the time, right?

61: Japan Otaku Reviews

A muscular bearded man is certainly popular.

64: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that Xiahou Dun was once called Kakoujun for a period of time.

68: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>64

Xiahou Jun!?

74: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

>>68

Mengde! Why do I have to see something like this!

70: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>64

Is the Yokikawa Romance of the Three Kingdoms over there?

65: Japan Otaku Reviews

I feel like Zhang Fei, despite being strong, is not really treated as a warrior character.

67: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

Liu Bei as well

72: Japan Otaku Reviews

>>65

It’s understandable because Zhang Fei is cute.

69: Japan Otaku Reviews

If Dong Cheng hadn’t interfered, I feel like Liu Bei would have stayed with Cao Cao for quite a while.

71: Japan Otaku Reviews

It’s probably impossible since the Emperor really hates Cao Cao…

73: Japan Otaku Reviews

Yokoyama is also Kakou Jun, right?

“Brother Ton in Dynasty Warriors~! I learned how to read it.”

75: Japan Otaku Reviews

That’s just how it is, because you end up thinking, “So that’s how you read that character…”

I don’t understand why it’s wrong to call it Nataku and right to call it Nata.

76: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

In the end, since the reading in Chinese is of course different, it might not be worth worrying too much about it.

77: Japan Otaku Reviews

I wonder how they actually pronounced Yamataikoku.

78: Japan Otaku Reviews

No one really knows how to read the era of the Three Kingdoms anyway.

79: Japan Otaku Reviews

It seems that when the Yoshikawa Eiji version was written, reading it as “Kō Jun” was common.

Yokomitsu’s “Romance of the Three Kingdoms” is like a comic adaptation of the Yoshikawa version, so it is based on the Yoshikawa version.

80: Japan Otaku ReviewsYeahx1

Yasutoroku or Yoku toku → Hmm.

Gentoku → Uh-huh.

Cloud Long → Huh?

Moudek → Why is it you?
