I wonder why they decided on Hare for the name instead of Hale. I have the imported first volume of the manga and they do spell his name "Hale"... But then again they also use "Goo". Guess i can't be too picky. Now i just hope the anime does well enough to get the manga over here also.

YES! Guu finally got liscened. Kinda cool a small company like AN got it. I wasn't into Risky Safety, but I repected it and really liked AN for bringing it over and doing a good job. I think Guu might be a bigger title and I can't wait for them to bring it here.

This is pretty funny. I was just talking to my girlfriend not more than a month ago saying how Jungle Guu would be a perfect anime for AN to license! I guess I can predict the future now. Anyways, I've seen the first 6 or 7 episodes of this at Metrocon 2003 and it was pretty damn funny. I'm glad it was finally licensed.

Well, I know that "r" would be pronunced as "L" in Japanese right? Some people use Hare and some just use Hale I guess. I've seen both on sites and stuff. The name Hare+ Guu...I like the other one better. |

I understand about the L and R sounds in the Japanese language... but since the original manga uses the spelling "Hale", i figured they would have gone with that. Also, from watching all of the anime already, i have to say that it sounds like Hale also... Hare just sounds kinda weird. But then again... what's in a name. |

Lol...I can picture some people looking at "Hare" and pronunciating it as the animal "hare".
...or maybe "Ha-ree"...heheh... |

It's kinda doomed either way.
A Hare (if mis-pronouned as "Hair") is an animal similar to a rabbit. Hale (if mis-pronouned as "Hail") means "healthy". Which potential mis-pronunciation would you prefer to use? |

how about hah-leh Anywhoo my biggest guest is why they are sticking with hale+guu is that is the title being used for the new manga series (3 volumes so far). Jungle Guu ended at volume 10, so I am not sure what is the difference story wise between them. Now I am wondering who is going to release the manga in the US. |

At the AN panel they stated that the Japanese liscensee has retained alot of control over the series, including the name. So "Hare" is the creator's wish, oh well. |
