There really isn't any universally-accepted spelling rubric when romanizing Japanese.

Being the annoying Jap sir that I am, I feel I should post on those.
There IS a universally-accepted spelling rubric when romanizing Japanese.
Because if I write doumo arigato in hiragana, I will use do, u, mo, a, ri, ga and to.
So the correct romanization of that is each of the characters respective sounds.
And honestly, I don't have a japanese font on this computer, so I can't see the title of this thread.
If it's in Katakana, it should be in Hiragana, but it honestly doesn't matter.
Much in the same way that Naruto, though a Japanese word, is written in Katakana on the manga and anime. Japan uses them interchangeably anymore.
The game looks super fun.
I want to play it.
