What, Rat's? Pretty sure his name is literally supposed to be "Rat", people are calling him "Rat". In this case, imo, translating his name was the only correct way to go about it, leaving it as "Nezumi" would make it sound like it was actually his name.

The word is also used for "mouse," so it could have been one or the other, but either one probably would have been translated. People probably just assume it's like Mixx with Usagi back in the day instead of a series quirk. The other series I always think of with a similar issue is Princess Tutu with Ahiru.

Nezumi IS his name. It's his name, it's what people call him. It's even differentiated from an animal's name by a different writing system. Stop calling him 'Rat'.

The concept of "rat" is his name. What are you talking about in reference to the writing system? How does his name being written in katakana make it mean "Rat" any less? And lol sorry, his name is Rat, it's supposed to be the idea of Rat, and his name is Rat in the English version - maybe you more appropriately ought to stop calling him Nezumi?

Why they didn't use "Nezumi" and went for "Rat" instead in the English translation (which was the correct course of action on their part).
