This is a very strange topic but i was thinking how do you pronounce some of the new characters names?

Is it:

Kira-(kai-ra)or(key-ra)

Hotaru-(hoe-tar-ew)or(hot-ar-ew)

Dairou-(day-rue)or(die-rue)

Havik-(hay-vick)or(have-ick)

Onaga-(own-arga)or(on-arga)

does anybody know?

I'd say:

Kira-(key-ra)

Hotaru-(hot-ar-ew)

Dairou-(die-rue)

Havik-(have-ick)

Onaga-(on-aga)

But I may be wrong !

It's like so:

Kira-(key-ra)

Hotaru-(ho-tah-rue)

Dairou-(die-rue)

Havik-(have-ick)

Onaga-(oh-nah-gah)

Kira -(Key-ra)

Hotaru -(Hot-ar-roo)

Dairou -(Die-roo)

Havik -(Hav-ick)

Onaga - (O-naga)

Is Dairou a Japanese word? If so the "u" at the end just means to extend the "Oh" sound.

So it would be: "Die-Roh"

But then again, with MK, who knows how they will pronounce them.

sachmis - Heh, that's why I added the u to my name when it told me that I needed a minimum of five letters. My alias everywhere else is Bezo.
Mine with syllabic emphasis:

Ashrah (ASH-ra)

Dairou-(DIE-ro)

Darrius (DARE-ee-us)

Havik-(HAVE-ick)

Hotaru- (ho-TAR-oo)

Kira- (KEY-ra)

Kobra- (KO-bra)

Onaga-(oh-NA-ga)

Shujinko (shoe-GIN-ko)

jesus...

kai-ra (obviously you're wrong when you say it's key-ra...lmao)

hot-ah-ro

hah-vik

oh-nah-gah

dai-rou

I agree with shadaloo 100%

No actually, we're not. I've heard the name in real life before, and it is pronounced "Key-ra". "Kai-Ra" makes no sense.

Go download an MKD fight video. He says "Ho-Tah-Rue."

This sounds odd, but we haven't heard his name yet, so I'll just say I think you're probably wrong.

kira, i though it was (keer ra). although i know it can't be (kai ra).
