One of the hostages is Haruna Yukawa, his first name is not Haruna but Harukana

Well, that makes sense. Haruna is a female name, and I had never before seen it applied to a man. In fact, when I first heard about this story, I thought they had captured a woman.

I know there is a Mt Haruna because of the battleship named for it. It’s the one American news accounts sank three or four times.
