What do you think of people who want to ship InoSumi to the point of splitting Sumire to Sumi + Re so Sumi can be written with kanji for inkstones to match Inojin?
Context, I took up Japanese lessons and while I only took up Hiragana and Katakana, I read about kanji and started practicing to type it, even researching ways to do it properly. For Sumire, using it as a name is only limited to this kanji, 菫, which means violet. Since kanji is tricky, celebs and famous people use either this, すみれ(hiragana) or スミレ (katakana). I had to explain this first since it frustrates me to see Japanese get used erroneously. So, I would like to ask your opinion about this. Thanks in advance.
they’ve run out of things to think of so they throw the two most random characters who only interact in the Academy as a ship.
it’s Sumire. With subtitles, they don’t write “Sumi re” and the characters don’t say “Sumi re”. it’s all one word.
you can’t shorten a character a character’s name for your own benefit.
and if we’re talking about shortening names, I’ve seen a few ppl say Sarada’s name was supposed to be Sara, without the “da” at the end. which that means “princess”/“pure”. just something I picked up on.
Sumire won’t match Inojin and besides, barely any Naruto/Boruto couple ends up with their names being connected.
Hinata: towards the sun
Naruto: maelstrom/roaring gate
Sakura: cherry blossom
Sasuke: assistant/help
it’s about THEIR connection, their relationship.
Hinata had a connection to Naruto because of both being Otsutsuki descendants.
Sumire has a connection to Boruto because of Nue, Kaguya Otsutsuki’s beast. and Boruto is a vessel.
where’s Inojin in this?
and Sumire basically has become a main character since ts started because she’s immune. so the main couples don’t have “matching” name meanings.
if we’re talking about the ship itself and not the names, it still doesn’t work out because they’ve got to be some kind of bond there beforehand (ChoKarui with the exception). they barely interact for four eps after graduation.
but yeah, I take Japanese classes and that’s why I find these ppl stupid.
I’ve seen a lot of ppl’s blogs (so dedicated to the ship InoSumi, half of them were bsa shippers so that says a lot) saying about the name shortening and that’s how it originally was before the subtitles ruined it by having Sumire as one word and not two like it was “originally”.
personally for me, I originally thought her name was two words when I first watched the anime because I hadn’t read the manga yet. it was the way the characters had pronounced (in both dub and sub. I watch it in both to get a grasp on their voices and what difference in their words than originally) it, especially Namida. I can’t blame them, it does sound like two words, but given the subtitles and if you search up, Sumire is one word.
my fav Japanese name is Sumire, not because of Sumire in the anime/manga, but because I like violets and purple. that’s why I was drawn to Sumire and because of her personality. that’s why I don’t like them disrespecting her like that and only using her as a tool for shipping.
sorry, this got long, but it gets on my nerves when ppl do this because they’re wrong and it ruins the characters.

What's your opinion on InoSumi, cause I've seen some people ship it?
I hate it. I love both characters, but the ship is just a BIG no.
Most people (some do ship it because they like it) ship it because they want Sumire out of the way (bsa fans).
But others like it, although InoSumi has only interacted in the Academy and a little bit after that before Sumire left and not once in the manga.
So it's basically a crack ship like SasuHina.
