I doubt they'd change Satan to Her-cule. Satan is hardly a swear word, and Viz has already used worse in other SJ stuff.

I agree, Mr. Satan probably will be used... but I am eternally pessimistic.

Um.. Sorry to necro-post, but y'know. This fits in here.

In the latest issue of Shounen Jump, in Dragon Ball Z ch.199, they changed Mr. Satan's name.

"The great combatant H e r c u l e- formerly known as the wrestler "Mr. Satan"-has announced that he will enter the Cell Game!!"[/b]

Darn them. Darn them to heck. I know why my SJ is late this month... they didn't want me going into a fiery rage with the little kiddies around...

Am I the only one who still hasn't gotten it?

Mine's always late. Mind you I live on the other side of the country from where it ships so I should only get it overnight. No, wait, that's still not an excuse.

Does anyone actually pronounce it "Say-tin," like the devil? I always pronounce it like they do in the anime, "Sah-tahn." You can't necessarily complain about that. >_>

Eh, to be honest, I pronounced it Say-tin during my early DBZ fandom days. ^^; Before I learned about pronunciation and such.

I pronounce it "Say-Tan"

Well, it is a pun on the English word "Satan," so that's the way I've always pronounced it. I mean, I don't say "Buruma" just because that's how they approximate "Bulma" in Japanese, so why would I pronounce an obviously English word with a Japanese accent?

Zackarotto · Post by **Zackarotto** » Mon Jun 28, 2004 10:09 am

I pronounced it wrong, but I pronounced everything wrong, and didn't look back in my brain to realize it, so went around pronouncing half of words wrong while I should have known better.

Mr. Satan is an english word so it should be pronounced the english way.

Yup. And if anyone says that they pronounce it "Torunksu", then they really should leave their bedrooms more often.

SpiritBomb · Post by **SpiritBomb** » Mon Jun 28, 2004 2:27 pm

Funny. I never pronounced it like the devil's name. I dont know, maybe its because I always thought it was "Saitan" instead of "Satan". I dont know, I guess I'm always pronouncing things wrong.
