i think, coming from a non-ddr player standpoint, "how do you pronounce A was funny"

but how do you get stoic messed up?

Okay, I think its safe to say Holic is pronounced "Holick".

Or am I wrong..

'Stoic' is a real word. Try looking the song name up in the dictionary first before making a thread about it.

BTW, how do you pronounce bag?

Holic is haw lick

I hear in Japan people say "A" as "Ace" (and AA is double ace) but I obviously can't verify that.

Stoic = Stoe-ik
Matsuri = Mawt-sue-lee
Daikenkai = Die-ken-kye (bad Japanese pronunciation...)
Aoi Shoudou = Ah-oi show-doe (show as in the word show, not as in shower)
Kakumei = Kaw-koo-may
Naoki Maeda = Nay-oh-kee My-aid-uh (yes, i know the first name is incorrect Japanese pronunciation, but it stuck from how i pronounced it before i knew Japanese)
Sakura = Sah-koo-la

correct Japanese pronunciation ftw (unless i played it frequently enough before i knew Japanese, in the case of Daikenkai & Naoki songs)

I don't need to be reminded how to say Naoki Maeka or Daikenkai or Kakumei or antidisestableshmentarianism or Supercalafragalisticexpialadoshis or Marchenstappelpieapplerloshlissyfridaycloyflofthethird (I can actually pronounce that one).
