Awesome post you have here♥

I'm a little confused about the Chinese pronunciation of 朴, though- shouldn't it be pú? When I went to wiki, though, they gave me different pronunciations for the simplified/traditional versions of the word, so now I'm really confused ^^;

[halcyon_morn]

Excellent question. I have no idea. XD Naver gave me po1, piao2 and pu3 as possibilities, while zhongwen.com says it's pu2. WWWJDIC gives me po4, piao2, pu3 and pu2. *is extremely confused*

[bellasurus]

I asked a friend who's better at Chinese than me, and she says it's pu3. '_'

[halcyon_morn]

Fair enough. XD I'll change it.
