 Personally, I just go by what Viz has printed. That is: Ryoga, Jusenkyo,
 Nanniichuan, etc. It's not really true to the original Japanese/Chinese
(i.e.,
 Ryoga should really be Ryouga), but it gives me a frame of reference to
 maintain internal consistency.

 ah ah... I know japanese, for I am part japanese. The way Viz has it is the
correct way. I guess it all depends on how you learned japanese. Ryoga is
what most japanese uses. Ryouga is what american professors uses. That's what
I got... anyway... to say that Ryoga is not true to teh orignal japanese is
wrong. They are both right.
