Plana.

Prana.

Prawn-a.

Is this image supposed to be a pun?

I mean, you could also arrive at the pun via "tempura-na" so. quite possible but I'm not confident enough to add the "pun" tag

    i thought it was always written as Reimu Hakurei but read as Hakurei Reimu == since Reimu is her First name after all

    Asia simply has a different name system. Let's take a Westerner named "John Doe" as an example, who has a daughter named "Jane Doe."
    "John" and "Jane" are their given names, while "Doe" is the family name. I would assume this comes from shortening "John of the Doe clan."

    In Asia, however, family was/is held with higher regard than personal importance. As such, the given name comes after the family name; "Doe John" and his daughter "Doe Jane." This is also perpetuated by their language; Fujiwara no Mokou = "Mokou of the Fujiwara clan."

    Having an Asian username, I'd assume you know that, but...I had time and felt like typing something that might be useful to someone. =P
