David's Japanese is impeccable but Ken's has a slight accent. Ken's fluency is amazing though and his understanding of Japanese culture is profound.
The problem with Ken is his attempt to put on a Japanese accent. It's obviously an English native pretending to not be an English native. It's hard to avoid dipthongs and English consonants when you know how to pronounce them =).
I applaud David Ury for his performance, everything from the Japanese to his personality virtually flawless.
'Ken Tanaka' is a pretty good actor. I've seen him on a kid's show as a cook or something.. I can't remember what the show is called but it was on the Family Channel. He didn't have an accent on the show..
@crankylifter check out this link, hes a fake and here is the proof. yea im livin in japan and ken has such a foreigner accent. hes good at japanese but hes not native.
