Yeah when I cosplayed Ryu I was surprised some people would call him "Ree-yu" and pronounce it "ha-Doh-ken" instead of "Rai-yu" and "Ha-doo-ken." Im just used to the former, but I know not everyone's gunna get it right.
Haha they called you Ryu Hoshi? That just tells you, "Ehh, maybe they aren't the biggest Ryu fans."
Unless I'm mistaken, Hadouken IS pronounced Ha-doh-ken. And Ryu is pronounced like Roo or Ruu. It's not two syllables. It's a diphthong.

Also well the Japanese pronounciation is like "Dyu" is you want to get technical. Also yeah its Hadohken. I said other people still say "Ha-doo-ken"
