While L may not be present in the language, that doesn't mean it can't be changed/altered in another language, which in this case is English. Which is why I brought up the whole Suniaster/Star Cup thing, as while Suniaster is the official name, the Star Cup is actually the correct and accurate translation.

I honestly don't know which is accurate, Horou or Holou, but in my opinion they are more or less the same as they are pronounced nearly the same way just with a slightly different vowel. And same with me, still have to research a lot of this :/.

As for Schwi/Shuvi, it's honestly like this for pronounciation sakes. It is officially Schwi and is used as Schwi in both the movie and the novels, the only thing is we hear it as Shuvi, because that is how Schwi is pronounced, leading to why it's Shuvi for pronounciation reasons but it still bugs me. (Oh yeah the name your looking for is Schwarzer, meaning "black one", and Schwi means "black")

There is also another topic on this under Blogs & NGNL: Zero's page. Again it is most likely a direct translation, and I have also heard it being called the Star Grail before, may be another translation. And yeah I agree with you on Suniaster sounding a lot better, Star Cup just sounds a bit too plain and off when it comes to a series like this.

ƪ(˘⌣˘)ʃ translations can be confusing man XD
