Talk:Lycoris Princess/@comment-129.255.228.118-20160503051411

I see. リコリス can be interpreted as both Licorice and Lycoris (which probably would have been better transliterated as ライコリス), which is why all the early translations had Licorice Princess.

And here I thought we would get abyss himes named after candies. Despair would have never been sweeter.
