I guess this is similar to how Raiden is mispronounced in Mortal Kombat

It's mostly correct I thought just with the American accent. It should be "Ra-ee-den"

It says right here in Matthew 16:4 "Jesus doth not need a giant Mecha."

Idk how they pronounce it but it would be Rye-den. I guess they call him Ray-den?

Cuz yeah that'd be wrong.

I'm reminded of Ronin Warriors, where the dub called the main dude Ryo "rye-o." I think they corrected themselves to the more accurate "ree-o" later on though.

So it's like, with this Cait Sith thing, we're actually making mistakes that even anime dubs from the 80s figured out.

It's supposed to be RYE-den, based on Japanese pronunciation. They did try to fix it by having Raiden be known as Rayden for a while. But, that didn't stick. It's funny that Raiden in Metal Gear has the correct pronunciation.

MKX also had people pronounce Takeda as Tuh-KAY-da instead of the correct pronunciation.

The national language is English. They learn it so it doesn't go extinct. It's dead.

You've got a weird definition of dead language, seeing as you acknowledge it's taught in schools lol

I wonder how many people saying "It's okay to pronounce Cait Sith wrong because AMERICA" also complain about how the English dub of Persona 5 mispronounces Ryuji Sakamoto's name, or even lists his name that way rather than "Sakamoto Ryuji".

Should also mention that this whole debacle feels a lot like cultural appropriation, since there's a lot of people itt implying (or outright stating) that the way they mispronounce the video game representation of an actual creature out of folklore is more valid and correct than the way it's actually pronounced by the culture it originated from.

False. Irish is not the same as Gaelic (and those that live in areas that still speak Irish/Gaelige will give you what for if you tell them it's Gaelic), and only a very small minority (less than 60,000) of Scots still even speak true Gaelic.

"it's not about the character it's about respecting the language"

If you're throwing tantrums over the name of an animatronic you are not respectable. The end.
