I TOLD you so, fandom! They're both Modoki!

Finally, finally, finally. I have canon proof on this. Actual pictures where the Mokonas appear with their full names.



I wish I had this sooner. Would've saved me so much wank.

Oh, and can someone please translate the text for me? I'm rather curious.



So, yeah, in the end I made some tests, and the Mokona book is really easy to scan. The text is several centimeters away from the page border. Which is great, since I suck at scanning, and yet I'll be able to get this baby scanned. *nods*

Not right now, though. *cringes at the Operative Systems practical work due on Friday.

ETA: now that I'm see the image again, I'm guessing that the runes might work more as initials than the actual name. Like, if you were to write Soel in ancient Norse, you'd have to write it with Sowilo as it's their S letter. Same with Larg and Laguz. Of course, there's also a high chance Ohkawa Clow truly sucked at transliterations and messed up with their names' writing. After all, this is the "King of predecessor" lady. That would explain my theory about Clow being Jiulou's bad transliteration.

Oh, and question. Is Keroberos the official pronunciation for Cerberus? Because in the book, they used Keruberosu as katakana for his name. Which of course, would be the correct Greek pronunciation of the name passed to Japanese (Kerberos -> Keruberosu), if we're picky.
