Traditional Japanese words would be written with completely different characters in hiragana or kanji, but sometimes they use katakana characters to make even traditional Japanese words look cooler. Maybe that's the case here, because Takahashi is almost certainly a Japanese name.

Hey Troy,
wow, lots of info there. How come you know so much about Japanese?
PS:- Not intended to be a rude question, and if you are Japanese - well, that would explain it
