The Naruto Dub

[XanBcoo]

It's quite obvious I know the word is Japanese.

Obviously not.

It's not the English language's fault. It's the lazy idiot Americans who don't know how to read and pronounce their own language.

I'll say this for the record, since there's obviously some miscommunication going on here. "Jutsu" is pronounced JOOT-SOO (albeit with shorter, less dipthonged vowels, as I already explained). It is not pronounced JUT-SOO. English pronounciation rules have nothing to do with how this Japanese word is pronounced.

Your beef seems to be with how it is transliterated into Romaji (You're saying it should be Jootsu instead of Jutsu, right??). If that's the case, then I don't care. Take it up with the Hepburn Dictionary if you want. The dub uses the closest sounding pronounciation to the correct one, and that's good enough. Whether or not you think I'm an idiot, you still seem to think "Jutsu" is pronounced JUT-SOO...which is wrong. Like I said, listen to how they say it in Japanese.
