| Apologies for another necrobump. I've visited this thread multiple times over the years and watched a few suggestions from it; to me it's the archive of weeaboo/suomiaboo crossover material. I've been a low-tier suomiaboo myself, though I never went as far as my online friends who actually studied the language. Some recent characters: From Akiba's Trip, https://myanimelist.net/character/146658/Arisa_Ahokainen "She is a half-Japanese transfer student from Finland." http://akibas.wikia.com/wiki/Arisa_Ahokainen (Of course she's half - http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/ButNotTooForeign ) The rest of these are from fantasy worlds but have noticeably Finnish names, because of course Finland is an alternate dimension. From Chaika: The Coffin Princess, https://myanimelist.net/character/102451/Viivi_Holopainen And I haven't seen Knight's & Magic, but I saw a remark from a Finn on Crunchyroll about Finnish names in the show. Looking at https://myanimelist.net/anime/34104/Knights___Magic/characters the surnames Kirjarinta and Hietakangas stand out to me. |
| Futaba Aria from Aikatsu Stars! is from Finland. She doesn't come in until episode 76-ish, though. |
Nyktos said: Darker Than Black has a fairly major character who's probably Finnish. Edit: I need to read your post better, since you already mentioned it. Kirsi is a Finnish first name. Yin is Finnish, or, was, before becoming Yin. |
