Shinkai, Hideo 神海 英雄（しんかい ひでお)
- You’re probably used to pronouncing “Hideo” like “Hih-DAY-oh” because that’s how English speakers have taken to pronouncing Metal Gear creator Hideo Kojima’s name. But this is yet another example of the English pronunciation not really being connected to actual Japanese, but English speakers subconsciously applying Spanish/Italian stress variation to Japanese.

Manga Details
- Per tucker: this title is a reference to Mesopotamian mythology. Duranki (also called Ekur) is kinda like the Sumerian equivalent of Mount Olympus in Greek mythology. It’s a mountain palace/garden that is the gathering place of the gods. It’s thought that the construction of ziggurats in Mesotamian cities were likely connected to belief in Ekur/Duranki (perhaps trying to copy it or pay tribute to it?)

- Don’t let the i and u next to each other in Miura trip you up! Vowel sounds are always pronounced separately, so take your time and pronounce all three syllables clearly and with approximately the same length/stress!
- Remember that that there is no stress in Japan...
