[edit] Does Toya belong in the LGBT characters in comics category?

I noticed that Yukito is listed in this category, and I think maybe Toya should be in it. It seems implied he's at least bisexual and it's hinted that at the end of the series he reciprocates Yukito's feelings. Thoughts? Katsuhagi 18:22, 18 November 2006 (UTC)

I do wonder why he was removed suddenly without any discussion, it seems a bit rushed to me. Granted very few Japanese comics are explicit in terms of sexual orientation, but Toya by the end does seem to show attraction to both Kaho and Yukito. This was also a young girls' comic, so the issue would probably only be addressed in hints. This just feels a bit too sudden to me especially since Yukito has been on that list for quite some time.

[edit] Touya/Toya/Tōya

Any chance we could have some sort of consensus on this? Shiroi Hane 07:19, 28 October 2005 (UTC)

I go for Toya. And no, we don't care about "accuracy" of a romanization ('sides, Touya is not really any more accurate than Toya). TOKYOPOP and Geneon use Toya. WhisperToMe 06:19, 4 November 2005 (UTC)

I love "Touya" best, but it seems that romanization isn't as "standard" as the Hepburn romanization, which is why people are arguing Tōya. Since it's electronic, doing Tōya isn't much harder than Toya as far as typing it, but would it be a hassle anyway? As stated, English media uses Toya. --Crisu 11:08, 28 June 2006 (UTC)

I think Toya works best. Even to someone who didn't know Japanese I think the pronounciation is obvious enough. Katsuhagi 21:55, 15 December 2006 (UTC)

As commented in the article, we've settled on using Toya when referring to him in the Cardcaptor Sakura universe and using Tōya in the Tsubasa .. uh .. multiverse. --Crisu 03:55, 16 December 2006 (UTC)
