That last anime is "Itazura na Kiss". Great anime. They even made a Taiwanese drama out of it. :)


Man, InK's use of English was terrible! At least in Black Lagoon and Gintama I could understand what they said but in InK, none of the English was comprehensible.

On the reverse, I find it funny when Russians, Americans, and Australians in anime speak flawless Japanese. Even if they never speak in their native tongue, flawless on the Japanese. I mean really are you kidding me?

What about Simon in Durarara? xD "Shizu-OW" = lol.
What's funny is that he doesn't speak flawless Japanese, but has an English (? Shizu-OW sounds pretty English to me) accent despite being Russian.

Personally I hate Engrish. Either use proper English or don't use it at all.

Much like Revy, who American and grew up in America, Madoka has supposedly spent several years off and on in America due to travel with her parents at a young age. Yet when she opens her mouth to speak the English she should know so well, you get one of the most laughable moments in anime.

Yeah that was really lolworthy.

The Engrish in DC is so terrible, especially when its the American characters. The engrish doesnt start till halfway through the clip. Ray's Engrish is actually pretty good though.

Never seen Durararararararara!! but that is just as bad.

I got a good example of how to and not to do it in Hajime no Ippo.

Jason Osma - African American/Japanese (Rased in American) - Accent when speaking Japanese is terrible....as it should be. I don't like that he sounds a little retard, but I get it that he is struggling to pronouce words correctly. Perfect.

Alexander Volg Zangief - Russian - accent none. Flawless Japanese.
