    His name is supposed to be french or something. I pronounce it "Jyan", but write is as "Jean", since things like Google Translate agree that it's correct.

    They were going with what sounds more natural, obviously.

    That said, the difference is negligible anyways.
    Did I say which sounds more natural? Nor am I saying its spelt as Jyan. That's just the romaji. Which when actually pronouncing Jyan, it doesn't sound like Jean. If anything, it sounds closer to John. It isn't John though, John would be Jyon.

    To what I know, french say the name as Jeen, not Jyan. That and I don't even think ジャン is the correct characters for Jean. I think it'd be more like ジーン.

    I nominate KIMIWA as the battlecry of all Jean allies.

    Or was it kimika? NEITHER WORKS IN GOOGLE TRANSLATE I'M FLYING BLIND

    And if it turns out this guy's name is the french Jean this guy is so much classier than I first realized. I hope at some point he goes bald and commands his own starship.

    Actually, we say it like "gently", without the "ntly" sound.
