Momodora a Japanese name? I'm not an expert but have a few basic learn read /write Japanese and that steam game too (kanji wars or something) so since then it's been bugging me how to pronounce Momo.

'o' as in fog or as in zoe? The latter sounds better IMO but I'm wondering if the former is the correct way?

edit: since writting this now the former sounds better... but still curious.

I personally pronounce it like a japanese word, but it's because my native language has very similar pronunciation to japanese. The name itself is not japanese though, and has no meaning other than making reference to the protagonists of Momodora 1 and 2.

I didn't even know there would be a sequel. The thing is, at the time I was working on another project, and that another project had Momo as the main character. I thought the two projects would be related, but the one with Momo was cancelled. Then I just made Momodora 2 with her as the main character. It's a complicated story.
