Translation has nothing to do with whether or not something is in ALL CAPS. It's stylistic. That's all. (To exemplify: "Khara" actually writes their name in all lowercase Greek letters, from what I recall.) --Reichu 19:12, 20 August 2007 (EDT)

Just write is as "Gainax". It's pronounced (to use two English words) "Guy-knacks". (I think it sounds like a brand of "feminine protection", myself...) --Reichu 21:50, 20 August 2007 (EDT)
