The closest TL we could get to her actual name (the katakana...ie what is turned into Vajrayaksa for Rou)...is Asfel Raja...

The "Raja" means "King" in some asian/sanskrit areas or something like that...but we never could find what the other part was (the katakana for it is アスフェールラージャ).

The kanji itself (地獄閻鬼) translates closest to "Hell Demon" or "Hell Gate Demon"...there's not actually a "King" in her name, since the kanji for Enma/Yama/Yan/etc. is actually 閻魔, w hich doesn't exist there.

However, I did a google check and came upon this (it's not by the author but it DOES make some sense)...

アス江ちゃん

【地獄閻鬼（アスフェールラージャ）・亜種】

「地獄」とか「閻」とか、「閻魔王」をイメージする名前ですね

Basically it says that her species name gives the mental image of Yamaraja (King of the WOrld of hte Dead, who judges the dead in Buddhism).

That's why I haven't changed it...since...well...I'm not sure if it's wrong...though it probably should be Asfel Raja (i think that e in there's probably supposed to be accented or something...since it's Asufe~ru Raja...when I look up the フェール on the japanese wiki, it points me to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/V%C3%B6hl ...though I'm pretty sure that's not actually what it's meant to be, heh).

The actual translation of the kanji is unlikely to matter, since the katakana is there instead...though it doesn't necessarily  HURT . ^^
