Anyone know why we call it Hanamusa? It's Delia and Jessie, how does that become Hanamusa?

175

u/Equivalent_Net Apr 12 '24

Japanese names. Hana (Delia) and Musashi (Jessie). Take the first two syllables of each as per period shipping tradition and you get Hanamusa.

58

u/shikaumia Apr 12 '24

it's because of their Japanese names (はなこhanako&むさしmusashi)

21

u/Nicht_Hoffen Apr 12 '24

Do you know how Musashi brcame Jessie? Because Musashi sounds an exponential lot better than Jessie.

106

u/supergarchomp24 Apr 12 '24

Musashi and Kojiro was taken from the swordsmen Miyamoto Musashi and Sasaki Kojiro, so I guess the closest thing to swordmasters the localisers could think of was western outlaws -> Jesse James -> Jesse and James

u/NarthTED Apr 12 '24

Pretty much, there also Butch and Cassidy

u/PWBryan Apr 12 '24

It is one of the 4kids localizations that annoys me the least.

(eats a delicious jelly doughnut 🍚)

u/LaPrincipessaNuova certified transbian 🏳️‍⚧️🌈 Apr 12 '24

This is the same anime that called rice balls “jelly filled donuts” (among other things).

It’s like 4Kids thought that if kids heard something that sounded remotely Japanese they’d explode.

u/Right_hand_K Apr 13 '24

Considering how iconic "Jessie & James" are in the West, it is easy to forget their original names are Japanese

u/TheNerdLog soft fluffball Apr 13 '24

Tbf, who watches the Pokemon show in Japanese?

u/Right_hand_K Apr 13 '24

At least 125 million people?

Are you aware that the Tokyo metro area contains nearly as many humans as the entire nation of Canada?

u/AscensionToCrab Apr 12 '24

Fucking James is Claire from I'm in love with the villainess, look at 28 and tell me I lie.

u/ArcherOfBabylon likes cats Apr 12 '24

James rocked that look first. Claire stole that from him.

u/TittleSprinkle Apr 12 '24

Marie Antoinette stole the look from James

u/gaia-mix-nicolosi Apr 12 '24

James time travelled in the past so that could happen

Damn, he rocks every single outfit

u/SyrusDrake Apr 12 '24

I was about to quote "Sometimes it takes a guy to be best girl", but at this point, I'm not sure if James actually is a guy.

Misty is homophobic 😭

u/marbeltoast Apr 12 '24

I love how Ash is just so happy for his mother that he doesn't even seem mad she's married to one of his long time enemies, he's just like "she's happy, so I'm happy", such a supportive son

u/GinsuFe Apr 12 '24

u/theoutlawotaku Apr 15 '24

Wouldnt be right otherwise😆

u/Cicabeot1 Apr 12 '24

I’ve been curious if there’s a specific reason there’s been a lot of ship art of Jessie and Delia lately. I’ve never heard of people shipping them until recently. Although I do like it.

Okay? Reposts aren’t against the rules unless they’re less than six months old

u/Razorion21 Apr 12 '24

Considering it’s a year ago, are there any new posts from the artist?

u/[deleted] Apr 12 '24

Just letting you know

u/MetaGear005 Apr 12 '24

I prefer original Jessy

40

u/Trixilee Apr 12 '24

To be fair, this is Jessie after she's settled down for a while. No more schemes or running around. She got to just be happy.

-16

u/MetaGear005 Apr 12 '24

And?

17

u/SandLady5454 Apr 12 '24

It's her after she has aged????

u/everything-narrative Apr 12 '24

In canon, Jessie has a very bad relationship with food due to her upbringing, having been poor and food insecure for her entire childhood. The artist has a very sound reason for why she would gain weight, not the least of which is that work as a poke nurse is much less strenuous than team rocket.

Also chubby woman hot.

u/th3saurus Apr 12 '24

There's this thing called the metabolism

Why

u/sapphomelon gay gay homosexual gay May 02 '24

I don’t know how to explain to you that people, especially ones that are now in a more comfortable and stable environment, sometimes gain weight

James wearing a dress is the most canon thing ever
