The correct name is Yasuo TANAKA, Yasuroo TANAKA is a mistaken reading.

Any other sources on him? Wikipedia does not cite a source, and at least two other sites (Les voix des Anges, Allcinema) list his reading as たなか　やすろう (which would be Yasuroo or Yasurō). I noticed Japanese Wikipedia also originally had that reading listed until one editor changed it, but without a source given we have no idea if there was a good reason for that change.

やすろう would translate to Yasurō or Yasurou; Yasuroo is a little inaccurate.

Since Les voix des Anges has やすろう as main name and やすお as real name I'm going to emulate that.
