Where does the name fan name Miyadera come from anyways?

This is something I've seen floating around when it comes to discussion about her. It seems to be the most common name for her in the English speaking fanbase from what I've seen. I'm not sure who decided it should be her name first, but I'm pretty sure it came from the original DRV3 fan translations of promotional media and the early chapters. It's actually an alternate reading of Korekiyo's family name, Shinguuji (真宮寺).

宮 can be read as Miya and 寺 can be read as tera. 

宮 could be literally translated to palace or shrine, but is usually only reserved for Shinto shrines. 寺 is used only for Buddhist temples.

Something I've always found a bit funny about this would be if her name was actually written this way it would look like 真宮寺 宮寺.

In my pinned I mentioned a few other names I like for her, but in doing some digging about her name I found some others that I like because they could have similar meanings.

Mitera (御寺) already sounds familiar to Miyadera but 御 has a meaning closer to paying respects, serving a respected ruler, or to have an important or well respected position.

Mikoto (美古登) 美 meaning beauty, 古 meaning something old or an antique, and 登 meaning to ascend or accomplish something.

Back to my personal favorite names, the writing for Sumire I enjoy the most is 寿美鈴 which can be read as longevity, beauty, and bell. Another alternative writing I'm fond of is 澄実礼. This one can be read as pure, truth, and gratitude. I like this one because it does parallel Korekiyo's name which can be translated as just and pure.

My knowledge of Japanese isn't perfect, so if I've made any mistakes here with my translation work, please let me know!

I feel like I'm always implying this but it's so upsetting how much people aren't willing to give Miyadera the benefit of the doubt and just, look a bit deeper at what Korekiyo says and does actually imply about her.

LIKE you want me to take the words of someone who controlled her social life and later goes on to murder women based on his perception of their character completely at face value are you crazy

I got an ending in decay and whew

I am so tired of Miyadera being used as a villain, specifically in amaguji fics and fanart, just so Rantaro can come in and comfort/save Korekiyo. Please consider the alternative where Miyadera is with Rantaro, and Korekiyo has to deal with his sister dealing with the CEO of losing women (specifically sisters) in foreign countries

I love drawing yuri that never meet each other

[lilyspider]

truthfully this blog died for a while because Miya's tag was barely updating and any new post tagged for her was (SURPRISE) some Korekiyo focused post that refused to acknowledge her as anything more than a villain in that poor angel's backstory :(

here’s your regularly scheduled niche drv3 content focusing on kiyo’s sister who I have so many headcanons about she might as well be an oc at this point  tl;dr for this: tsumugi lives and has to deal with consequences of her writing. I’d like to revisit this with a slightly more serious tone at some point
