Talk:Sasha Kreuzhev

Kruezhev or Kruschschev?
Someone from the Animesuki Forums has told me that there are different translations of Sasha's surname. The heading lists the two possible translations of the surname "Kuroishefu" (<-- in Romaji). Kruschschev is, according to that source, is based on a real person's surname. What do you guys think? Which is correct? Herald of meridian 06:42, March 2, 2010 (UTC)

Well, from what I have read the most common to romanize the name is Sasha Kruezhev. Lero 19:12, March 3, 2010 (UTC)

Croitsef?
Since Croitsef has been pointed out as the official spelling of her name like Agnese and Orsola, I suppose this should be brought up here. From "Comr/a/de", ''"Croitsef" could really be a Russian surname, if it had a "v" instead of "f", and had "-a" at the end since she's a female and all Russian surnames change with gender. Anyway it sounds much better than "Kruezhev".'' Assuming he's legitimately versed in Russian, the official spelling is (at least) closer than ours. It also may mean her last name is correct when Misha's in control. —Enigmaticrepose


 * There's a similar topic in the atwiki article on Sasha.
 * "ロシア語の女性名「アレクサンドラ」の愛称が「サーシャ」. ただしサーシャは男性名の愛称にもある.
 * 「-エフ」で終わる姓は男性形のため、名前からは彼女は男性ということになる. （実は男の娘？）
 * ロシア語表記：Саша Кроичев (Крейчев)
 * ラテン文字転写例：Sasha Kroichev (Kreuzhev)"


 * Also, observe how they translate Sasha's surname. The moonrunes over there also state that they are even doubting her(or his?!) gender. Is s/he a trap? O.o heraldofmeridian♣ 12:38, September 19, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, it was Kreuzhev not Kruezhev, can somebody fix this please?

Separate article for Misha
As you know, Sasha and Misha are two completely separate entities, though I may not know who exactly who the angel was (was it Michael having Gabriel's powers since the elements have been switched, or was it Gabriel?) or how he/she took on Sasha's form. We should migrate all information with regards to that angel into a separate article. I mean it is not Sasha who did all those things in the novels, it was the angel after all, and I highly doubt that it was Sasha's magic Misha used during her appearance (referring to the water magic attack on Touma).

Any comment on this?---TheGreatEye 16:42, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

it's good to separate the article but still we must put a detailed information about Sasha's involvement in Angel Fall also how Sasha and Misha's personality is pretty much same/similar (from how they talked)--Dainsleaf 14:47, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

Japanese is off?
The romanizations for her weird speech habits here all end with "ka" but the last character is actually "ga". I don't have raws so can't tell which is right, but it is definitely inconsistent.

The Reasoning for "Kreutzev"
From an anon on 4chan:


 * The closest name to Sasha's is this: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Kreutzer_Sonata


 * Note how it's called in the Japanese version: クロイツェル・ソナタ
 * Compare to Sasha's name: クロイツェフ


 * The only difference is the last katakana, which usually corresponds to -ev when romanized. Thus, we can deduce the Sasha's name is close to "Kreutzev". It might even be based on that.

This reasoning is the most sound one I've heard regarding Sasha's name, so I decided to agree with it. --Tact 02:03, December 11, 2011 (UTC)


 * That speculah is not official, though. @wiki says it's "Sasha Kroichev (Kreuzhev)". I'll revert this because TheGreatEye is a bit pissed when it comes to the whole Sasha conundrum. Honestly, if have the powers to speak and understand Japanese and contact Kamachi-sensei himself, I'd do it in a heartbeat. heraldofmeridian♣ 08:07, December 11, 2011 (UTC)
 * A bit late for the party, but yes, I am a bit pissed. Will move articles and edit tons of text in due time.---TheGreatEye 02:00, March 5, 2012 (UTC)
