I think you've explained this before, but now I'm all muddled again.
What do these mean? Would a Japanese speaker associate these words due to their similar sounds, almost like puns or wordplay of some kind?
シン = Sin in Final Fantasy X, pronouned "Shin." The ... katakana? ... is phonetic.
神 = shin as in god, spirit, kami, shinto? (This is Kanji?)
死 = Shi, death? (This is kanji?)
And on top of all these is loaded the English meaning of "Sin."
Yes/no? Am I understanding, or am I conflating unrelated words because they sound similar to my ear?
