would "すりみ連合" (Deep Cut) from the game Splatoon 3 be romanized to Surimi rengō* for the artist field? the fictional group/band "Squid Sisters", aka "シオカラーズ" (Splatoon 1) appears in osu as its romanized version, Shiokara-zu, and so i'm wondering if Deep Cut is following the same

asking bc there are no ranked maps w/ Deep Cut or any variation of the name as an artist so im inquiring for what is considered rankable

*this is how i've seen it done using the modified hepburn romanization method but i havent romanized any japanese texts before, so im not sure on the correctness of this

both options are correct - direct romanisations are always valid, but if there's official romanisation or translation you can use that as well. this applies to both artist and title fields

to clarify, theres no "better" way, the only reason why all ranked sets use shiokara-zu is because the first ranked set used that and ranking criteria enforces you to follow already ranked metadata if its not wrong

so yea, up to you
