Interesting observation. Here I was assuming Kubo simply butchered his spelling, whereas he may have been giving insight into As Nodt's place of origin.

As a side-note, did Yhwach just barge into As's hospital room in his full Quincy regalia? I'd love to see the looks on the doctors' and nurses' faces if he did...
