Do your reps. お and the entire お line is always pronounced with a long O sound.
As such, a Japanese name or word written in romaji with an o in it will always be a pronounced with a long o sound.
If her name was pronounced like the oo in boon it'd be written as Juun or Jyuun.

Mind you I certainly don't begrudge creators for trying to monetize. They're not actively seeking to atomize themselves or hinder the development of newcomers within their respective fandoms. They're subconsciously following the incentives and deterrents that exist in any relatively free market economy. Japan has a combination of a strong welfare state and a culture that doesn't frown on young adults living with their parents. One could argue that this gives Japanese creators the opportunity to pass up profit-seeking for "pure" personal and community development.

I'm just pointing it out because I noticed that western fans and even /jp/sies just take these economic relationships for granted and view ongoing cultural changes within a vacuum.

From what I understand of it, the Yorigamis DO have something to do with it. From what I understand, they were the ones who spread the idea of Perfect Possession around to make it like an Urban Legend. Thus, by abusing the unresolved incident, they could carry out their "ultimate get-rich-quick scheme" and become an unbeatable pair.
In the end, they are basically coerced into the clean-up, since they didn't know it would affect the Dream World the way it did.
