... Here is the English translation of the line in the video:

“May blazing Fire turn into flowing gold, and the Horse of Wu soar through the clouds. Gary wishes you wealth arriving at full gallop, happiness coming in an instant, and all your wishes fulfilled without delay!”

The forum is very quiet ...

That's quite a solid point the one about the name being Gary.

Yet i think that when a name figures in the original Japanese panel in latin letters, we can assume that is the intended name. Thake this panel, for istance, hoping the link works:

Well at least you did not change!


And again Gally is an actual male name, while Garry is not


I actually happen to know someone named Gary, (as in Gary Cooper) and it seems to be quite a male name. So the argument does really depend on your nationality I guess. But in french we have ...

... been "Quattro Bajeena" for quite a while now!

On a side note - didn't we have a theory that "Gally" came from "Galatea"? (While the cat might have been named "Gary" - ah, the joys of the Japanese language!)

Edit: Hahaha, never mind, I was actually the one who suggested this - almost a decade ago!

... Inn"- AKA - the Iron Mountain.
There was already a long discussion about the origin of Gally's name. In the Japanese version her name is Gally/Gary, and she is named after Ido's black male cat.

As silly changing status from a lurker to an user because of this topic as it probably is, I'm surprised nobody brought up the theory that Gally is short for Galatea (and I'm pretty sure that's the case).
Let me link to wiki, as I'm not sure I would sum it up nicely:

Kind of like poking a sleeping dog with a stick to see what happens.

That is dangerous. According to a Brazilian saying, dogs that bark do not bite.
Believe me, it is a lie.

I agree the title say's Gary's provocation , but simply because the one who was responsible for it made the confusion.

If you proceed the reading, the line 4 says: Gally put on the jacket of a difference color in the story. Also known as it is player 2 color .

Tell the entire tale, please. Where does that picture, writing that, is from?
Anyway, as we have already debated here, most of the time he refers to her as Gally, so…

Yes, I know this is an ancient post :shock:

Despite all the rules and history there is still an accepted improper use of Nouns and Verbs.
For example Gally, (sounds like Galley), is GARY in Romanji.

Would like to hear your thoughts,
Almost got the pacing of this video to the music complete.
Thanks again for your time and help ...

Oh, yes! I applaud you.

Sergio,
Good to hear you are in a safe haven. :D

I didn't understand your last line. What do you mean by opening yourself to others ?

Here is an example of what I meant by that.
