Well, rather than post a million posts with one pronunciation each just to clutter up the thread, I'll just consolidate how I pronounce all the characters' names into one post. I could be doing some wrong, and if so, let me know. Keep in mind that I speak with a West-Coast American accent, so you'll probably notice that coming through in a few of these.

If you're doing this for serious (lol Satan), then I can go over how things are supposed to be pronounced (ish).

The problem with lists like these is that everyone has a different accent. I would write names in a totally different way while we probably mean the same.

Lol @ reading these weird English attempts of pronunciation. XD English can be such an over complicated language. In other languages (such as German for example) you pronounce a word/name basically exactly as it is written. No need for: "ah-kee-rah yoo-kee" or "kuh-sue-mee". It's spelled and pronounced: "a-ki-ra yu-ki" and "ka-su-mi". ;)
