I remeber watching the 2nd episode of the Japanese dub of Sonic X and that was the first time I've heard him swear, I had to rewind. It made me laugh for some reason, probably because it was unexpected.
I really loved Sonic X and really want to rewatch it however... Chris made it almost unbearable the first time around. I don't know if I could last a second time. Gah. Gary-stus.
In any case! Thanks for compiling all these! This is one of my favourite videos to watch when I need some cheering up and gets me giggling every time! :)
You know, despite the fact that Junichi-san's accent shows in almost all cases, it's not bad. It also makes me think that the Japanese consider Sonic as an American because of all the English he uses.
I wonder how people would react if English shows shows suddenly had the odd line of Japanese, say your watching 24 for example and Jack Bower went Arigato gozaimas
I understand the L and R matter in Enrish, but why the hell do they say "Zanku" instead of "Thank you"?? If a Japanese dude thanks me in Engrish I'll immediately answer "You ain't zinkin' me, fool!"
You'd think just because there's not a "th" sound in japanese, they'd still be able to say it. Because when they speak english, there's a "th" sound in english, right? That's no excuse. Sonic just sucks at english pronounciation. You're either good at it or you're bad at it. I've heard japanese say "thank you" properly before.
That's easy to say as an English speaker. However try making the らりるれろ sounds. You're probably not able. Non-native Japanese speakers hear the sound as a "d" or "r" sound. It's neither. Even people who can sort of hear it usually aren't able to imitate it properly. It's the same for the Japanese and some of our letters. It's because at birth our brain learns certain sounds to apply to language and after that it is very difficult to hear anything else. Continued in next commment...
You can find a lot of scientific and psychological journals on it explaining how children until a certain age can "understand" all languages.
However after years of practice or due to a particularly a good ear some non-native speakers can imitate the sounds of another language pretty well. It is definitely not easy though. If you believe it is, try imitating some other languages' sounds. If you think you're accurate you'll probably be laughed at.
@F0nkyNinja That's true some japanese voice actors are damn good at it however saying it's no excuse is not fair. Since it's not there native language there is really no reason for them to worry about speaking it properly unless they have to. I can go out and try to learn [insert language] but speaking properly may take time and practice.
hmm... I think most european learners of japanese speak as bad as
we speak engrish. They aren't used to pitch accent languages (most european languages are stress accent ones) so they tend to speak japanese as if they're drunk XD personaly I think that's more cute than funny though
The "Chris, you give up? Ok" part is an edit from the person who made this video. There is more dialogue between it. The "Hey Chris, (you) alright?" part is way funnier.
Even though it is engrish
At 3:21 it sounds like "Sam's gay" "Sounds gay" or "sounds girl" idk lol
