its the same pronunciation is this case cuase that was his name as well as his Style name most three kingdoms era people of stature will go by there style name [ and its written in kanji is Japanese as well but pronatioactin is very different]

"If you tremble with indignation at every injustice, then you are a comrade of mine"

When the union's inspiration through the workers' blood shall run
There can be no power greater anywhere beneath the sun
Yet what force on earth is weaker than the feeble strength of one
For the Union makes us strong

The show is set in China and stars Chinese people, so they will use Chinese names. It's just like they don't spell Alucard's name as "Arukarudo" or "Aakaado."

Mm, I'm finding it really weird reading the names in one manner but listening to them in a different one. It's quite difficult to make out whose name is whose.

It's an entirely different kind of flying, altogether!
