Talk:Kazundo Goda

Untitled
This is pure speculation, but I think Gouda's apperance of his awkward face is based on the Laughing Man from J.D. Salinger's short story. It was deformed and almond shaped much like Gouda's.

His Face
Though no direct connection was made in the series, isn't it possible that Ghoda's face is a result of the incident with the nuclear reactor in the secret government nuclear plant?

Chomsky?
Anyone else notice similarities between Gouda's and Noam Chomsky's theories? Perhaps it should be discussed?

Gouda's name.
I was under the imnpression that the difficulty in pronouncing his name was due to the way it was written in Japanese Kanji, and that _anyone_, not just cyborgs or AIs, would make the same mistake. Unfortunately, I don't speak Japanese, and I can't find the reference for this. Chaotic nipple 05:11, 29 October 2006 (UTC)

Spelling: The subtitles spell it as Goda Kazunto, and the English credits state it as Gohda. Where does the spelling of Gouda come from? Is it from the Hiragana spelling? I know that Japanese often don't pronounce their u's and i's. Jez crow 03:30, 26 March 2007 (UTC)

right way of Spelling: Gouda Kazunoto (in Hepburn pronounciation). But in spoken Japanese it is possible to notice like: Kazunto/Kazundo. The "u" in Gouda is pronounced like this: Gohda/Gooda. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 91.17.61.120 (talk) 22:04, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Should it be mentioned that ひとり (hitori), Aramaki's mispronunciation of the name, means "alone" or "solitary" in Japanese? 178.26.126.225 (talk) 18:21, 3 May 2011 (UTC)

Spoiler Management
I'm a bit bothered that the very first thing mentioned in the Individual Eleven section is that Gouda is completely responsible for it. I hadn't gotten that far in the series yet and though I suspected it, I would have appreciated either a slower lead-in (like how most Wikipedia story summaries generally reveal information in the order revealed in the series) or a spoiler alert of some kind.
