Yuri Lowenthal Speaks Japanese (Anime North 2009)

[JayBarrington]

Yuri means George in Russia and some Soviet countries while in Japan means Lily or Emily

I think

[maviewing]

I hated sasuke in the anime, and thought, "no way he's attractive" but his voice actor is so cute O_O

[pokahontas978]

isnt Yuri - Lesbi on Japaneese?? Haha strange name :D:D

[NewlightRinoa]

@pokahontas978 i know right xD but i also heard its a russian name :3

[TerasXertas]

Wow, he's pretty good at Japanese! :D

[Raikume2]

He can make a perfect Japanese Voice Actor!!

[Hinatachan121]

No clue what he said, but it sounded cool.

[OrangeKyuubiKid]

and that means...

[lazyass98]

my bro was playing saints row 2 one day and i was bored so i watched hime play and when a guy in yellow came out he sounded just like sasuke and my bro thought i was crazy since i jumped on the couch and pointed at the T.V. yelling

"OMG! That's Sasuke's voice!!!!" O.O

[UglyKatsuki]

@lazyass98 lol Yeah. When we were there, I got him to sign my copy of Saints Row 2. ^-^

[XDcookiemonstah]

@lazyass98 That happend to me but i was alone and my mom was like "who you talking to ?" And i was like "THATS SASUKE'S VOICE ACTOR!" Then My mom "o.O" Haha

[FlameHazeShana666]

[usemoselnitro]

Non-Tan VS Yuri

[NejiHyuuga4ever]

LOLOL THAT IS JUST WIN. <3

[pinkpastelhearts]

gosh speaking japanese is so sexy. i want crispin freeman to do that.:)

[Yetineko]

I have my doubts about him being japanese since I'm pretty sure his parents wouldn't have named him Yuri- meaning girlxgirl

[TragedyWings]

ouo Just gonna say Yuri can mean Lily or just a shorten version of "Shoujo Ai" *girlxgirl*. But that's about the extent of my knowledge on names. :'D That's why there's Google, you know?

Anyway, this was kind of funny. <: Ciao.

[EdwardsKitty]

@TragedyWings Yuri can mean lilly, or homosexual female porn, Shouji Ai is girl on girl, but it's not extreme like yuri is

[TragedyWings]

@EdwardsKitty Touche~, thanks for clearing it up (as well as correcting the spelling error I did lol).

[EdwardsKitty]

@TragedyWings No problem :3

[Asuma741]

@TragedyWings Actually it is Shoujo Ai, not Shouji Ai

[TragedyWings]

@Asuma741 Well then EdwardsKitty was corrected lol.

[JCAznDude]

I think he something around the line of..." You idiot! Drop dead!" Kutabare can mean like "F*** you" too or something. o.o

[SuperChrono]

Yuri is more of a russian name tbh like :P lolz

[TheCutieAstig]

Yuri can be either a boy's name or a girl's name in japanese :D

[supersaiyanovanime]

whats funny is he voices yuri from kyo kara maoh

[Daviysoh]

He said "Naruto, what the hell are you doin'? Shut the fuck up!"

[tomhulcelover]

I LOOOOVE HIM

[D20Watt]

The name "Yuri" was also the a name of a character from Dirty Pair.

[ixonixas]

"i'm taking a poo and now i need a toilet paper..." Ū_ū

[ProtectorProductions]

[ImpactFrame]

I heard "baka yarou" and "kutabare", so idiot-fuck you? Haha

[NaraM0]

His language knowledge is sooo cool!!! XDD <3

[masteryoyo3160684]

[Rockpelt69]

[cookingpapa101]

kool

[xsasukaxuchihax]

Awesome! :D

[ShinFuYux]

Yuri sounds like a japanese name, is he like...part japanese or something?

[lldff]

Yuri's actually a Russian name, but you're totally right; it does sound Japanese!

[StaneshiftTheWolf]

@lldff

BWAHAHAHA...yes..yuri means something in Japanese...*muffles giggles*

[2cookies1pie]

that and yuri in japanese means lily.

[Dpaladinx]

@lldff

It's actually both Russian and Japanese. In Japan, it means "lily." Japanese first names tend to be more gender neutral than other countries. For example, Hiro Nakamura from Heroes is a guy, yet Hiro from Hidamari Sketch is female.

[BBVONBOOM]

It's a japanese word used to refer to anime that contain girlxgirl relationships.

[sasuke7naruto7]

@ShinFuYux I don't know if he has any Japanese heritage, but he can speak Japanese fluently~

[GizmoBeam]

@ShinFuYux

Wow, really? Okay, Yuri, as a male name is Russian. The japanese word "yuri" literally means lily, as in the type of flower. BUT in japan the term "lily" is common slang for lesbian. I'm pretty sure they wouldn't name a boy after a type of flower anywho.

[horselover1213]

@ShinFuYux He speaks a lot of languages, and Japanese is one of them.

[MassacreUchiha]

@ShinFuYux Actually yuri is a german name , and he speaks japanese , german , and ofcourse english ^^; mabey even more ; P

[wolfgirl76543]

@ShinFuYux Yuri is not just a japanese name, it's also german and i believe russian.

[Duskdragon94]

@wolfgirl76543 it's also a japanese name meaning flower

[wolfgirl76543]

@Duskdragon94 just saying that it's not JUST japanese.

[Duskdragon94]

@wolfgirl76543 sorry just realized that... my bad -_-'

[dogloveproductions]

@ShinFuYux that's what i always wondered also, or maybe a latin name, but i know japanese people have that name

[MrsScrumpadoochous]

@ShinFuYux Ah, correct! Demo, Yuri means "Lilly" when you translate it to English, haha!

[masterprayer]

@ShinFuYux Yuri = Lesbian Doujin

[DefWish]

@ShinFuYux No, it's a German name...

[penny3852]

@ShinFuYux umm idk what he is...but yuri is jap 4 the oppisit of gay...so ya

YURI YOU ROCK!!!

[mastersofthekey]

@ShinFuYux you honestly don't know what yuri MEANS? O.O

[lucariolord12]

[uchihakami5]

@lucariolord12

[uchihakami5]

[uchihakami5]

@NettoSaito

*sarcastic cheer*

[Hulaty]

@ShinFuYux Yuri is a very popular Russian name.

[EugeneDaKing]

@ShinFuYux Yuri's actually a Russian name, but he's not Russian xD

[EchoSEAL101]

@EugeneDaKing It's also japanese in some parts of japan! (YES I used japan twice in one sentence 1 internet cookie for me! XD)

[Moraela]

@ShinFuYux Yuri's a russian name, too :)

[Natsuhiboshui]

@ShinFuYux I believe it's actually Russian, but his Japanese is AWESOME!! :D

[MehStupidVids]

@ShinFuYux in japanese it means lesbian(s) or somthing like that xD oh well we still love you yuri! xD

[supersaiyanovanime]

@ShinFuYux yuri is a japanese name

[ts2101]

@supersaiyanovanime or russian!

[AnimeKid13100]

@ShinFuYux Yuri means girl on girl right?

[DNChocolateBar]

@ShinFuYux I think it's a German name actually. I'm not sure though.

[Fenrirmolf]

@DNChocolateBar Doesnt sound German, his last name does

[DNChocolateBar]

@Fenrirmolf You're right actually. Yuri is Russian. I looked it up. It means farmer in Russian. c:

[3gaaraWshippo3]

@ShinFuYux Yuri's a russian name mostly... :P

[IAmBreeLynne]

@ShinFuYux Yuri is a Russian name :P

But in Japanese, it does mean Lily :)

[FlameHazeShana666]

@ShinFuYux yuri means snow in japanese

[Hitsyfication]

@FlameHazeShana666 That's "Yuki"

[MGOWNER1]

@ShinFuYux no andits a russian name... late reply

[GaaraKakashiSasuke]

@ShinFuYux Yuri is a Japanese name, i don't know exactly what it means, but it's something with lesbian sex or something. And i don't think he's partly japanese, then i'm sure someone would know.

[SCFF249]

@GaaraKakashiSasuke Yuri means lily in Japanese.

[crypto66]

@GaaraKakashiSasuke Yuri is a name in more nations than Japan really, although Russia seems to be the only one to use it for guys.

[ShadowPhoenixKC]

@ShinFuYux Well, when it comes to first names, people don't have to be descended of a nationality to have a name that's also a name there. Though, he may have some Germanic ancestry, considering Lowenthal is German for "Valley of the Lion".

[alykat199117]

@ShinFuYux lololol yuri means girlxgirl!!!!

[mewmiu123]

@alykat199117 Hell no Yuri is a Russian masculine name or a japanese name for Lily.

Although i doubt any of his RECENT ancestors are Japanese. If anything its only by a small fraction.

[alykat199117]

@mewmiu123 yes it does mean that yuri means gxg and yaoi means bxb

[mewmiu123]

@alykat199117 Do your research before discussing such matters with me.

[alykat199117]

@mewmiu123 yes

[crypto66]

@ShinFuYux It's not that common for people of other nats to have foreign names, I have a friend with a jap first name even. But even so, I'm guessing his name uses the Russian male version as opposed to the Japanese female one.

[aminee94]

yeaahhhhh...

[LurverOfTehAnime]

I just little explained "HE'S SO ADORABLE"

I love how he giggles in the end.

[MMZERO9]

ORE WO DARE DA TO OMOTTEYAGARUU?!?!?!

[pinkmartini2]

My friend was playing Saints Row the other day. I was in the room watching. And when Shoji came on, and I heard that voice. ha ha Mentally, I asked..."Sasuke!?" XD

[pokerfacesms201]

@pinkmartini2 same thing happened to me XDDD

[scotb6]

[SasukeGrL1407]

[CaymAkuma]
