Except that ウis a u-sound. It's the same as う. So then it's pronounced like "moo". And the little marks above the character changes it to a hard sound, usually a "b", "p", or a "v" in the Japanese alphabet. In this case, it's quite literally "v", or "vu". So in other words, it's not a W, it's a V. As shoddy as Gumi's translation was, this is one of the few names they actually got right.

So say what you want about this no longer being about global, it's still the wrong way to read that katakana.

Also, mods, if you see this I'm not dogging on you at all. I'm incredibly grateful for the work that you're doing ^_^b Just trying to help.
