Sailor Moon - Japanese "Native English Speakers" in Episode 108

- Episode 108--Usagi's Dance, In Time To A Waltz, has some American exchange students that have really thick Japanese accents. It never fails to make my friend and I laugh, so I had to put it on the internet. Sorry about the lack of subtitles, but you should be able to figure out what's happening from the broken English.
The addition of 'ne' after 'you cannot speak english' is SO funny
this is actually a thing among learners and natives when speaking in English in a Japanese context, since English doesnt have as flexible an equivalent
@@Skuu wouldn't the equivalent be "right"? I am by no means learning Japanese and i really am uneducated in the language. I didn't google anything, just 'felt' like this would be the right english equivalent. It's probably not. 😂
I think they meant "innit" like isn't it?
Lol I thought he said innit HAHA
@@Skuu I think "eh" is a valid substitute (Canadian here, admittedly)
It's so adorable how the supposedly British gentleman still has such a thick Japanese accent. Guda aftanun, yango redi.
Lmao
He sounds a lot better than the average Japanese man tho.
Must be from Liverpool.
I suppose it makes sense they have American accents in the dub?!
They only made him English in the American dub
Mina: Conversational greeting
Ami: Fancy textbook greeting
Rei: Universal greeting
Mako: It sounds English
Her "th" sound is fantastic.
For a while there, I thought it read “controversial” 🤣🤣😭
Mina: Taurus/Libra
Ami: Gemini
Rei: Aries/Scorpio
Mako: Sagittarius
@@starrisesky yup yup
I forgot Minako lived in London for a while, so she probably has the best English skills of the group.
"Everybody welcome to my home party" is the standard English greeting when having a get together.
I'm always saying this
Probably meant to say "house party"
@@crosseightyeight No.
Especially when you say it with what sounds like a Transylvanian accent.
@@crosseightyeight But an English speaker would probably not say welcome to my house party. They would say welcome to my party or welcome to my home.
Minako: nice to meet you
Rei: Hello
Ami: Iam glad to see you
Makoto: Thank you 🤪🤗
🤣🤣🤣
Ami’s “I’m glad to see you” was inappropriate here. You’re seeing this guy for the first time, Ami! Why are you ‘glad’ to see an old stranger?
Minako’s English was perfect since she spent time in London.
@@anujkalra6145 It can grammaticality work. She can be glad to meet him for the first time if she's been anticipating it
@@anujkalra6145 ami's english here is a blind idiot translation. Extremely accurate grammatically but makes little sense when spoken outloud.
"Welcome to my home party" needs to be said more often in the English language
That is not allowed, please leave my home party.
[upgrade] welcome to my party, homies
@@flaetsbnort
husbant, you buy too much home partys, now we are homeress
I am HooWHAT?
And we often say " Oh you don't a know how to speaka Engurish neh?"
It appears that all those transformations and attacks weren't enough for Usagi to learn english.
just as all these anime weren't enough for me to learn Japanese 😔
moon drinking. ..escalation!
British guy: good morning!
Usagi: Moon Healing Escalation!
British guy: Refresh!
anime logic guys don´t take it seriously :D
Attacks phases are written in katakana already, different from actually English
always makes me burst out laughing when thick accent japanese english is spoken and the characters are like "wow! perfect english!" lol
お英語が上手ですね
You mean perfect engrishu
I think the English bits in jojo are legitimately more clear
Even if it’s just “oh mya gawwwwd”
Or “you-re turn, mista jo-star”
It’s so hilarious and out of place
Its no better in US shows- Gus Fring speaks spanish like hes reading it for the first time out of index cards, pausing to stop every 6 syallables. Im like, have you ever HEARD spanish being spoken? Its supposed to be like 80mph. Not to mention the atrocious asian or arabic languages. Samurai cop
@@onlydaprecum "wow perfect Spanish"
To this day, my favorite is STILL Mako-chan’s “SANKYUU!” said with so much confidence it’s adorable
I literally squealed at that
I realize now that, growing up, Arigato was thrown around a bit as a stereotypical Japanese word. Glad to know that the concept is mutual.
@@systemverilog4727 RIGHT!? I didnt even think about that.
@@systemverilog4727 stereotypical also means generic... so it's a given that "arigato" is a general japanese word, like "hello" is a general english word. you could say arigato was thrown around so people could sound more worldly, unless it's used in a demeaning manner like "haha hes asian arigato roboto haha" but thats like... infant brain humor.

I've always wanted to see this episode in japanese. So hilarious xD
Gf
Hddola
I have it on DVD. One of my favorites. Lol
What did they do in the English version I wonder.... Maybe French?? That would also be hilarious xD
@@eternalconfusion6226 she says a lot of strange sentences in the English version..as a failed attempt
The opening scene where Usagi basically freaks out at Edwards speaking English and then switching to conversant Japanese that she forgets how to communicate normally in her native language is so good hahahahaha.
What does conversant japanese mean?
@@hawkfeather6802 another way of saying conversational japanese
"Nice to meet you, cream Si-tu."
Ami: "She's drunk."
She said I'm glad to see you
@@ihavenoideawhatimdoing4 I know what was said, thank you. Lol
@@ZeoViolet 😒
did she say "SHIT YOU"?
@@deleted_handle usagi is saying about “stew” in Japanese.
So nice of him to speak with a Japanese accent. Truly a master of the English language.
The voice actor of Edwards almost nails it at the beginning but then he says "redi".
The way someone explained it to me was that in Japanese, 'R' and 'L' as separate sounds just don't exist. To them, it's exactly the same thing, with the way they roll the 'R's like many languages do. That's where we get things like "young-u rady".
@@Randoman590 Thanks, I know. I studied linguistics, and [l] and [r] sounds are pretty much the same phoneme /r/ in Japanese, which means they're an interchangeable sound without the meaning of a word in Japanese chaning. One can say they are different allophones (or variations) of the same phoneme.
Meanwhile in a language like English (or my mother tongue, Finnish), /l/ and /r/ are different phonemes, hence words that would otherwise sound similar like "lady" or "ready" have a different meaning (even though, to be exact, the vowels in these words do sound a bit different).
In Finnish, the words "rakki" and "lakki" are a so-called minimal pair. The only sound that is different is the first one, /l/ - /r/. "Rakki" means a "pooch" or a "mutt" while "lakki" means a "cap". A Japanese person might hear both words as the same.
@@donnaquixote7538 pretty much, /r/ and /l/ in english are both approximants with the only difference being place of articulation, it makes sense that under some circumstances they become the same or a similar sound.
@@Randoman590 I have 0 experience with japanese phonetics, but from a Spanish speaker point of view it's the fact that their R roll is weak that makes it sound like L. Their R sounds like a very untensed plosive in the alveolar/palato alveolar region.
I noticed he ends his questions with "ne" too.
Minako: Solid pronunciation in enough English to get by, on account of having lived abroad.
Ami: Stellar grammar, but a victim of Japan's education system not knowing how to teach pronunciation.
Rei: Knows how to say "Hello."
Makoto: Doing her best.
Thank you 😆
"A victim of Japanese education system" either you hear English to learn it (the pronunciation), or you don't. So unless you're using audio/video, which I would assume was much rarer in the 80's/90's, you need actual foreigners teaching English on Japan. Not quite the "education system failure" you say
@@raven-a This! & also that people are allowed to have accents (If you know what I mean, everyone obviously has an accent haha). “Victim of Japanese education.” I mean sure but if you learn an additional language you won’t sound 100% like them magically
@@it8ntme823 bruh of course “people are allowed to have accents” OP never said that she was shit so at speaking English why are y'all taking so much offense? 💀
@@raven-a what are you even talking about? I'm pretty sure that “back in the 80/90s” they wouldn't have had teachers giving the right English pronunciations and that was genuinely an actual thing that happened. (this is hearsay, I didnt look it up so I might be wrong) you seriously think all classes have access to native English speakers or actual recordings to teach students with?
given that context, all OP inferred was that Japan may not have taught English pronounciation properly. and that's not a big deal. so it's just weird to see y'all jump up to take OP's comment personally 💀
Does the episode go into detail about how Minako is actually fluent in English? Her “nice to meet you” was really good
She was in England, when she was sailor v...so I'm assuming that's how. This is referenced in the anime, not the manga.
And we assune Amy should be the most fluent of them.
She used to live in London as Sailor V, so that would make perfect sense.
@@alicesacco9329 minako is clearly the most fluent, actually using a foreign language in another country on a daily basis is much better practice than any textbook.
Reis character actress tomizawa michie is actually fluent in english
"Don't worry, donburi curry" is now my new motto.
Mine too
This needs to be on a t-shirt XD
See you again, nani mo agen!
This is the one episode that MUST be watched in Japanese
This is the episode that I think DiC did better then Viz. DiC did a genius maneuver of switching the languages and keeping the story about the language barriers, viz just changed the plot entirely on what was going on :p
@@CenKyne no way. They ruined it. Do t watch it dubbed. Turn off translation for this one
@@CenKyne
You could also make the Englishmen speak a different language other than English, like German or something
Nice to meet you cream stew
Don't worry big bowl curry
See you again I won't give you anything 😂😂😂😂
cream stew. god, the Tomodachi Life flashbacks.
@@pathogenofdecay omg noooo-
Post this on r/engrish LEL 😂
sounds like a rap
The old Cloverway dub of this episode was pretty great because it had the characters speaking French instead.
That preserved the original awkwardness of the characters in the scene. I don’t think the Viz dub did it nearly as well.
Was it Quebecois french? Please tell me it was 😂
@@andynonymous6769 I wish! That would've been really funny!
I hope the actors also had no idea how to pronounce French and it sounded as funny as engrish does.
oh i thought i was the only one who saw that lmao it was good tho
darn it, how can people not love the original Japanese voices, Kotono Mitsuishi is so amazing !
But not as good as Linda Balantyne 😵
I may watch the English version but we should all cherish the original uwu
After watching all of sailor moon with its original japanese voices, i have to say the japanese voice acting suits all the character much better than the english dubbed ver i grew up with. I prefer it.
As a Japanese, I felt very uncomfortable with the voice of the English voice actor. The Japanese version of the voice actor has a very cute voice. It is good that the softness of Japanese is well expressed.However, I also thought that the English version of the voice actor was good. From this comment, I learned that the way we look at things varies from country to country.
I'm not good at English, so my true intentions may not be well communicated. Please forgive me.
Wait what??? There's people who DON'T love the japanese voices?? Sailor Moon's original dub is one of my favorites ever. They fit the characters so well!
I love how everyone is trying and then mako just pulls out a “thank uuuu😄😚” XD
She said sankyu tho
I love it so much! 😭❤️ The way the girls popped their heads around the door made me think so much of my friends and me when we were teenagers. We loved Sailor Moon and still do!
This is such a cute little comment that it makes me feel nostalgic- though my friends and are are still teenagers 😅 thanks for sharing 💖
@@ecksdee8129 Your comment made me smile! Always love to meet a fellow magical girl 😊💖
Edit: Magical girls stay magic for life!
You all should appreciate that Makoto didn’t go full “I’m fine thank you and you?”
Usagi freaking out about English is so funny, especially when he spoke Japanese she was like “WHA??” Cuz I’ve seen so many Japanese people seem surprised foreigners can speak it too

@@usagitsukino608 How ironic
"Nice to meet you, Cream Stew!" is always a line that's stuck in my head 🤣
What’s killing me is that Usagi knows some English. Almost all of her Sailor Moon attacks are in English! Of course, how often does “Starlight Honeymoon Therapy Kiss!” Come up in conversation?! 🙃
Hey❤️ I may not know you personally however I care about you deeply because I know how much you mean to Jesus The King of all creation . I want to tell you that Jesus Christ loves you so much, he died for our sins so that whoever believes in him wouldn’t have to perish in hell but instead have eternal life in heaven. You need to understand that HEAVEN and HELL are 1000% REAL they aren’t imaginary , and hell is a horrible place I wouldn’t wish on my worst enemy. God doesn’t want you to end up there he wants you in heaven and so he is giving you a chance to accept the sacrifice of his son Jesus Christ and be saved. Day by Day the world is falling apart because we are literally living in the last days of Earth there is no doubt or debate about it, Jesus Christ is coming faster then you think to bring judgement to the world and to destroy it. This really is URGENT, it’s NOT A JOKE ,Tomorrow isn’t promised to anyone, you can be alive one minute and gone the next, please take this opportunity to be on the side of Mercy confess your sins and wicked ways to Jesus , sincerely REPENT/turn away from them, ask for his forgiveness, and be baptized at a real bible believing church- ask him to enter your heart and to be your Lord and Savior before it is too late , truly believe in him and he WILL do it because it is his promise. It’s important that you seek the righteous and Holy path of the Most high God so that you may inherit eternal life and be spared of Hell fire. You can begin a new life in Christ and have a genuine relationship with him, please repent. Jesus changed my life and he will change yours too🥰, May the Lord be with you eternally💕🙏🏾
Minako and Ami are the ones who speak better English since Minako lived in London and Ami has perfect grades at school
They did great, much respect to anyone in Japan trying to speak our language. Even if it does comes as Engrish, it sounded way better than any of us would trying to speak theirs.
Usagi is so cute while she tries to speak English ❤️
“nICe to meetch-U, crEamu shi-chU”
😂😂💖💖💖
This is so relatable that when that tall girl said "thank you" I knew exactly what was happening: She was trying to speak another language to be friendly, messed it up, and a friend called her out. I don't have to speak Japanese to know that. So wholesome!
I love how they always have copious amounts of german and english characters in anime but never anyone who actually is a native speaker to dub them
It was the 90's.
Usagi tries her best~
It's super cute
This episode is a goddamn classic. Fuck the haters, I love Masahiro Ando's episodes so much. Those faces are frigging legendary.
*****
True and the faces are really the only thing I'd complain about with them? That said they've kind of grown on me and I don't mind the triangle eyes, plus he's a legend int he industry now and I love how he was responsible for animating some of the best episodes of the entire series. Especially this one. Also all the crazy facial expressions and gags he gave to us, couldn't be Sailor Moon without them.
*****
Oh my God yes.
*****
Haven't seen it yet. That was his last one?
TRUE
Ando’s style >>> sloppy Crystal style of season 1&2
I teach English in Okinawa. We spend a large amount of time "Encouraging" the students to speak in English. "Mamoru is...JapaneseJapaneseJapanese" is about as well as it goes with my 5 year olds. ALL DAY EVERY DAY. (But I love them
To be fair, they spoke better English than I can speak Japanese.
GOODOH EVAHNERNING RADIES!

You know, I have never understood why anime studios don't have a list of "English-speaking" VAs explicitly for the role of "English/American exchange student."
I am sure it is hard to find fluent English speaking VAs in Japan, but these roles are usually one-off characters in animes. Just have a few "jobbers" who show up for their dozen lines in one episode, then move on to the next one. I mean, the "English" of these exchange students is often times worse than that of the MCs who, at best, have a couple of years of study and SHOULD have accents.
Also, the English Auto-generated subtitles are a must!
American cartoons and animated shows do the same thing when they speak a different language, usually it's the same voice actors who work there who do the voices, many times I've heard them speak Spanish and it sounds funny, of course because they're not natives, I guess it's more complicated to bring people from the outside, unless it's a big or main role they're playing.
@@andylatino I get what your saying, and agree. The thing with anime (not sure how familiar you are with anime in general, so no offense) is that any anime set in modern (or even Edo Period) Japan always has at least one episode with "Americans" visiting, usually as exchange students or soldiers, much like in real life Japan. Its predictable as clockwork. Often times, the Main Character VAs have better English than the VAs voicing the visiting "Americans."
The real kicker is that some anime have (allegedly) bilingual characters. For example, Revy from Black Lagoon. Totally different genre than Sailor Moon, but Revy's whole backstory is that she is Chinese-American, and grew up in the United States. She usually has a line or two in English per episode, and it ramps up for about three episodes in the second season where every other line is English. The story was written before the anime was cast, so you have to wonder why they didn't go with a Japanese VA who had better English. The Engrish is so bad that it is laughable...much like watching some of the FUNimation VAs take their shot at trying to speak Japanese in a dubbed anime.
I know I am making a mountain out of a mole hill, but it is just funny to think about...especially as anime has moved beyond Japanese-only audiences and is being simulcast around the world. I guess it will just stay a cute quirk of anime.
@@samuelzuleger5134 yeah I get what you mean, but probably it's because even though anime has gone beyond Japan, for them it's still aimed at them when it comes to the Japanese voices, maybe they think since they make different dubs in other languages that can be changed in each one.
@@samuelzuleger5134 they exist, there just aren’t that many of them, and studios are super particular and picky about the VAs they use. I think it’s a partly a union issue.
@@troyschulz2318 "partly a racism issue"
Fixed that for you.
Mako's "thank you!" will never stop being funny

Compared to the original dub, there's something so cute about them speaking English.
Cause dubs have bad acting. Good English but bad acting. As bad as crappy English is it’s always gonna be better than horrible acting and 12 year old dudes sounding 87.
@@13_cmi this just isn't true though and is a massive generalisation
"Goorafuter-Noon, YouNgu Leidy"
LOL XD
It just occurred to me, Edwards comes to Mamoru’s house and it’s full of 15 year old girls. And he’s just, “ojousan-tachi, konnichiwa lol bring them to the party too whatever”
Like. We the audience know why they’re there, but it’s still weird
This is your brain on toxic feminism.
This makes me feel better after my brain melts trying to learn Japanese on the regular. :D
EDIT: Also, "...don't worry, donburi curry.." had me rolling. :D
And the "ah!" right after XD
The japanese-english dictionary / English phrases book part was adorable
I pit finally makes sense now 😂. I’ve been trying to find it in Japanese to see them struggling with English because I have the English dub 😂
The closed captions make this whole thing pure perfection.
Why what do they say
Her "nice to meet you" is on par with their native english
Sometimes we need a little drink to get the foreign language flowing as Usagi demonstrates superbly here lol.

I can’t help but imagine that the voice actors have no idea what their saying so in their minds they might be thinking “I could be insulting someone right now or calling them a slur and I don’t know if I am or not”
Michie Tomizawa (Rei Hino) is fluent in english. But for the others, that idea is absolutely hilarious and I love it.
"Oh I see, you canae speek Engrish! That makes two of us-u!"
TOO CUTE! Man what a great show this was…
George Joestar decided to come fuck with the Sailor Moon cast
"Oh! Edwarzu~"
That was funny and adorable at the same time 😆❤️
Really can't beat the classic EPs in Japanese 😂🤣 these are so funny
Idk but I remember one moment of sailor moon where someone says “what time is it now?” In English and it has stayed with me for nearly a decade
Usagi has been drunk season 1 and 3… damn she really is the life of the party 😂❤️! I love this girl so to speak 🤣
Gonna be real and just say it's cute when anyone tries to speak another language. I had a Spanish girl drop by my stream and she loved my voice but couldn't understand it. I kept using alexa to try and talk to her. She put a smile on my face but I bet to her I just sounded like this. Adorable and stupid 🤣
THANK YOU!
Usagi is always such a mood LMAOOO
"Don't worry, donburi curry!"
Why is there not a T-shirt of this?
Good Afternoon young ready!
I love this episode for drunk Usagi, but it is also one of the best episodes of Eudial. I mean, she was already cool up to that point, but it is this episode from where she really starts to kick ass just to peak in the 110 and 111 episodes.
Ah, well, at least they tried :P it’s good enough to say they are speaking English. Love the concept oft he episode
This is like,my favorite thing ever XD
Ah, good times. Good times.

Honestly, I can understand Serena's difficulty understanding English, since even people who speak the language say it's one of the most difficult things to learn
Actually Japanese is harder... English is only hard in pronunciation. Pretty much every other language is harder. Like French counting system, or Chinese in which there is pretty much no rules or Hebrew and Arabic in which there are too many rules. English is simply the easiest that's why it's famous, those people who say English are hard must be Americans lol..
Do you have proof all of them are were Americans. Michael H
We don't need to see generalizing here.
I have studied a lot languages so I agree with Michael.
English is one of the easiest language, if not the easiest.
+Paulo Barbosa thats odd, I always heard english was super hard because a ton of words that sound the same and words that look similar sound different.
Yeah I've also heard it's harder to learn English.
Can't get over with that moment.
1:05 Ah, the standard double up and down American hand shake!! A classic! I feel so at home!
Usagi is supposed to be gifted in foreign language learning because she's Intuitive and scatterbrained.
how would being scatterbrained serve anyone in learning a new language?
@@punkbjork it requires associative thinking.
@@artemsmirnov1134 you're right, but i guess i just didn't think of "scatterbrained" as "making connections". seems like they are two different angles to take or ways of looking at the same thing. one has a positive connotation, the other a negative one, but despite the lens, the reality of the object being perceived remains consistent.
@@artemsmirnov1134 i think intuition is more about associative thinking though, to me "scatterbrained" implies messy, disorganized, incoherent cognitive processes etc
As an Englishman I can say with some authority that they've nailed this. That's just how we talk.
Me the native English speaker:
This is so cute.
“I am what?”
i hope this doesn't sound wrong, but Japanese accent is so cute 🥺
Lol, how charming, no wonder this show was as popular as it was.
Wow. These sub voice actors from Japanese in "Sailor Moon" are good at speaking English. : )
If i ever talk to Usagi in english, this is the reaction ill get from her, i love it lol
Wow man....It's hard to believe I use to talk that way. But luckily, I learned english after years of practice and dedication

@@usagitsukino608 What’s the better sounding language, English or Japanese?

It’s actually a put-on that Japanese VAs do. It’s not usually how they actually speak.
She sounds like Pikachu
Just wait until you hear what Goku sounds like.
She sounds like Ebichu! 😂
@@simeonellinger2064 😂 true
This type of thing is so neat to me as a native English speaker; been watching Lupin III and it's been a riot seeing how the 70s Japanese artists portrayed other parts of the world. Like how they did an episode in Sweden and were like, "What guns do they have over there?" "I dunno, Stens and Mausers?" "Yeah those are European and easy enough to draw."
Actually this is the best engrish I've heard in anime
I'm not sure if it's better than Joseph Joestar in part 1 and 2 of Jojo, but damn is it up there lol
Mako's thank you will always be my favorite part. 😂😂😂
Edwards's name, while English, (Edowaazu) has a significant meaning to this epsiode.
The "Edo" in Edwards's name refers to -
1) The former name for Tokyo. This show takes place in Tokyo.
2) The Edo Castle located in the Musashi Province. In this episode, Usagi guesses that the students must be from Edo if they can speak English. This goes into the next reference.
3) The alternate name for the Tokugawa era between 1603 and 1868. During that time, economic growth, strict social order, international policies, and popular enjoyment of arts and culture were all prioritized as part of Edo culture.
Waazu - the Katakana for the English word "words", which describes things you use to learn how to speak. Usagi's also trying to speak more English, seeing as the only English words she has spoken were words were the Sailor Soldiers' identities, the past and future identities, the transformation phrases, and the moves she uses during battle. She learns by hearing it, and they are said in Katakana form, so it's possible that she might not know that they are English words.
So now that I have gotten this out of the way, thanks for coming to my Ted Talk.
1:14 I keep forgetting Usagi is 4'11"
Usagi Sailor Moon is always so aloof and so adorable!
For some reason this makes me feel better about not speaking Japanese
You can tell he's an ethnic anglo-saxon by the naturally teal hair.
" Screw the rules , I have green hair " Seto Kaiba of yu-gi-oh abridged .
I think it's way more attractive when English is spoken in the Japanese version than English spoken in the English version.
This is what English sounded like in the early 90s in the US, clearly people here aren't cultured enough to know what native speakers sounded like back then!
I mean in Usagi’s defense, English is really hard
The way the supposed English speakers spoke English was not cringe at all. It felt more natural than other anime
Usagi is hilarious !! This is another reason why Japanese sub is way better then dub !
I still grieve the loss of the Sailor Moon Says channel.
I'm not sure what's funnier. This or the dub where they're literally talking about how they can't speak english IN ENGLISH.
Like they could have made it like French or something. Or just played it with differences in the british accent and dialect. but no, just have these english-speaking characters use english to complain about being unable to speak english.

This is adorable! Also, is it true that in the original eng dub they learn french? (If so, which episode is that?)
Yes it's true but I don't remember the episode title.
It's this episode
When it comes to speaking English, Mina outsmarts Ami for once. That London stay was very useful, good for her.
