Default Kinuko Ohmori (#10541)
A quick question; just how come we ended up with "Oomori" as a romanization for her family name while it is written "Ohmori" on 2 Bubblegum Crisis EP:

and her solo album (1988):

Another romanization can be found on Hurricane Live 2033 (1990) ending credits as "Omori"

Technically it should be Ōmori, all the other versions are variations on how to reflect that long O (or not at all).

Yes, I'm fully aware of that. Was just wondering how it was romanized as "Oomori" when all material available (almost 30 years old) were clearly displaying "Ohmori"....
