BrainDps:
I got the Coalgirl release, is this the release I should be archiving?
Saw the first episode
(click to show/hide) How do you mistake Sawako for Sadako?! XD
Strangest thing, I actually have an underclassman who looks like Sadako, too. XD (Although I may be the only one who thinks that, because nobody else knows who Sadako is) I have to credit her for the way she executes that long + black hairstyle.

If you are asking why people call her sadako vs sawako, its not a mistake. Its a joke based on a girl from a horror film by that name who they feel she resembles.
Some of the people may have only known or been so accustomed to that that they use that name w/o even realizing its wrong. When I was in highschool I had a nickname which was actually only a twist on the pronunciation of my name. It wasnt derogatory at all, but some people who didnt really know me actually didnt know they were not saying my name correctly at first. So to me, it makes perfect sense. Tho, maybe you are talking about something completely different and I just missed the point. Oh well.

Oh, I knew about Sadako from the novels/films (which, for some reason in the English movies, Is Samara (why)) I was wondering if everyone genuinely thought her name was Sadako, or they knew her name is Sawako yet called her Sadako anyway because it fit her better.
I guess I'll stick with archiving Coalgirls release, it looks pretty good and it looks as if anything else would be an upscale. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
