Sawajiri Erika

cannot come to JDorama few days,,,
but I still can see the shocked news of erika...
the Chinese version of her name really made me shock..
it's just like a name of a man...
as many Chinese know her name is ㉗¢
but now...is ‰p—´‰Ø...
I saw from the news, they said is Erika herself choose this name
okay....so we have to accept this...

nvm I will still call her 'erika'

I will! Well, I tried but didn't find it...yet :sweat:

However, I dug up something else I cannot resist posting again! Found this on page 82.

It does sound somewhat weird, it sounds like she's some guy in the next triad movie but she's so cute for picking that name herself, haha I love her.

agree the name change is so masculine, an unknown reader would mistake it for a man :lol:

But it does sound very rich and prosperous, might help her fame outside of Japan!

ya~
I can only say Erika is so cool to have this name

actually ‰p—´‰Ø sounds like a boss in a gangland :sweat:
and—´ means dragon...
anyway she can choose her name herself, that's good
maybe the name ㉗¢ is build in my heart too deeply
so still a bit shock...
now I have to accept this name~
of course my love of erika will not change~

mufc wrote:Haha nice, I actually know how to say her new name in chinese, although when I read it in cantonese it sounds a bit odd to me but as long as she likes it! Perhaps she should use this 嬅 (wah) instead, a bit more feminine :woot:

Can anyone tell me how I pronounce her last name in cantonese?

nice to see u~
but i think 'ying loong wah' is more accurate in Cantonese..
and in Japanese is 'e ryu ka' (similar to erika)

hee. srry. mistook the ‰p for ‰¹. my apologies xP

Upload was incomplete...gonna reupload.. :beatyou:

KAWAII! :victory:

side note:
The whole episode would be 580MB and ~1hour long.
I removed all parts of the episode without Erika.
-> This clip only has the parts with Erika and a bit from the intro+end.
I will not upload the full episodes (would be 580MB to 1GB each...23 episodes total).
(Erika is in 13 of them)

Now have fun.

here is a new DL link(this time it downloads 100%):

It's hard to get a good filehost.
