| I think it's cute when a main character says a phrase in English, or at least attempts to. |
 |
| It's funny since it's wrongly pronounced English and all. XD |

| It's not "cute" but it is funny sometimes. |
| There is no such thing as shit taste. Only idiots who think everyone should have the same taste as they do. |
| Moderately amusing in some shows, horribly out of place in others. |

| Another related question is, do you like English songs in anime? For me they usually feel out of place and awkward. The song at the end of the Fuko arc in Clannad was an embarrassment. |
|
| Don't really care much. Usually sounds plain to me, but if their voice is beautiful or cool in a way while saying it, that's something. |

| SO EVERTZING ZAT MAKES ME WHORE. |
 |
| Totally impartial. I'm pretty sure Japanese people (talking about reality now) like to slip English phrases into conversations. It's just like how English speakers like to slip phrases from other languages into their speech. So yeah for me its like that. |
| Depends of who says it and what they say. |
| Can't understand some of the words in this op. Engrish can be funny |
 |
| i think it sounds pretty annoying. |
 |
| No. |
| its so cute cause they get it wrong all the time |

| Yeah. Revy speaking english was awesome. [/ironic] |
 |
| Yes, I always get so aroused when I hear some girl speaking engrish in anime. |
 |
| Its cute when girls say it. And its super funny when it comes to comedy! |
| It depends for me. Sometimes it can sound cute or funny in a good way, and sometimes it can sound out of place. I actually like hearing some phrases in OP and ED and even the completely Engrish songs can be okay like Amerie by Yuko Goto from Shukufuku no Campanella. |
| This is what I first thought of when I saw this topic.. |
"Cheer up, you’re never alone! There is probably at least 1 bug in your room." |
| One of the only times when I thought it was funny was in the Steins;Gate OVA. I never thought it was cute, mostly annoying |

| When it's a cutesy show I find it really funny, when I'm in the middle of a very serious show and one of the characters suddenly comes out with a bunch of bad English it can ruin the atmosphere a bit. :/ |
curiouser and curiouser :) |
| It depends on who says it and the context |
| I like it in certain situations. For example, the part when Revy was speaking Engrish was one of my favorite parts of Black Lagoon. Situations I don't like it in are songs and any supposedly "badass" move or something like that. While in a very small amount of cases they're actually speaking English correctly and understandably, in most cases it doesn't make sense, doesn't sound like English, and just ruins everything around it. There was actually an anime I was watching recently in which there was a song being sung...and while the voice and everything was beautiful, they were singing English sentences that didn't make any sense...and it just destroyed whatever mood they were trying to create. |

| it's funny at times and it's annoying at others. |
 |
| Gotta love engrish rap Raw Raw Fight the Powah!! |
|
| I used to find it annoying back then. Now I'm tolerant about it, sometimes it's funny. |

 "Ally to good, nightmare for you." |
| It's painful to watch my native language get mangled. It's only cute sometimes, although sometimes I can tolerate it if it's done somewhat well. |
| I love it. It's funny and really random in some animes. My friend and I were like "DAT ENGRISH" at one moment while the first ep Muv- Luv. |
| It may work in some scenes, but it annoys me if a character that is supposedly a native English speaker is speaking in engrish. It's the same annoyance I have with English VAs not being able to pronounce Japanese names/words. |
pika2000 said: It's the same annoyance I have with English VAs not being able to pronounce Japanese names/words. Yes, I also have this annoyance. Watching the English speaking actors in Ninja Assassin pronounce "Osaka" as "O-sack-uh" was...well, humorously bad. |
| I don't mind if it is this kind of comedy type ^_* |

 Yahallo! Yatta! Baka! <!  "Humans, your existence was a mistake. Conflicts, lies, jealously, greed. You once caused me to lose everything and today I will devour everything... Because I am the Valkyrie Goddess"> |
| It made a certain scene in Episode 25 of Fate/Zero pretty hilarious despite the atmosphere |
| I really don't like it, so i find it Annoying.. I never have watched anime in Engrish, only once time but i just can't get used to it. |
 Don't get cocky there ! |
| date masamunes engrish was the first thing that caught my attention from sengoku basara, it can be quite funny but i dont like it when its used on op songs lost canvas deserved something better |
 |

 |
| Love it. It's so funny. I also like it in OP songs and stuff. Even in serious moments, it's just so great. It was used very well in Haiyore! Nyaruko-san (the Space CQC canceler buster etc. comes to mind). |

| Okarin is the best Engrish speaker. Edit: However, I usually find it annoying as hell. |
| It's cute and funny <3 +1 |

| Very humorous. Espeically when they start cussing in English. Panty & Stocking or Seitokai Yakuindomo for example. |
| I like duh orange chikun |
