This is roughly what the text on the obi says - roughly because a) some of it is blurry in this picture and b) my Japanese is rubbish. Fair warning!

"Ng" is written "Engu". Japanese people usually read Chinese names as if they were Japanese kanji (so I think "Ng" might become "Go" or "Kou"), but this is just a straight phonetic transliteration because Ana is an English name. I don't know if that's interesting to anyone. ~ blitzente (talk) 22:29, 12 August 2009 (UTC)
