JG. Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 I just found something while searching for names for my new fanfic for random things. YUUDAI 雄大 m JapaneseFrom Japanese 雄 (yuu) "hero, manly" and 大 (dai) "large, great". I'm referring to Jaden (Judai) from YGO GX if you were wondering. The description listed doesn't really fit... IN ANY WAY. Well, maybe the hero part, but that's Konami's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
White Hollow Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 acording to yugioh wiki his name means "teenager", and it is Judai not Juudai Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JG. Posted March 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Same thing, isn't it? Judai = Juudai. Almost the same =P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twenty-five Zero Oh-oh Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 You guys do realize that these translations don't exactly give a good feel of what they actually mean right? Also, I never realized that there were 2 ways to write yuudai. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phantom Roxas Posted March 5, 2010 Report Share Posted March 5, 2010 Judai is the kind of Celibate Hero that gets misinterpreted as gay. Yu-Gi-Oh! tends to do that, regardless of how straight a character is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
