NO
Konnichiwa, Yuta-san.
How are you??
Here’s a fun fact , power voice actress is Fairuz Ai , a Japanese /Egyptian actress , she is fluent in Japanese & Arabic
@@oldliquid pharaohs did not speak arabic, wouldn't make any sense
@@pooljule5617 hahaha they think pharaohs lived in the 90's or something? 😂😂😂
@@kacemessemine1458 then why Egyptians use camels when they go to their pyramids schools and use arabic ??
@@ko-Daegu what in the universe are you talking about?
@@ko-Daegu Hey kiddo, Arabic was introduced to Egypt after the Islamic conquest. Before that they speak the ancient Egyptian language and just before the conquest, Greek and Coptic (later stage of the Egyptian language).
The old dialect sounds really cool
Any old archaic dialect of any language is cool.
@@christianabad9982 You can speak for yourself tho. Old Brazilian Portuguese never sounded good to me as other languages.
@@AstxriZ I didn't see where he was speaking for everyone. it's just an opinion. chil!
@@nathanmerritt1581 Sai daqui, deu random
Well technically Power could have been around for a super long time, so in short, she OLD
It could also just be her acting like a pretentious weirdo.
Her line of thought could have been "male elders are supposed to get respect. Look at manga or something for how such people talk. I deserve that kind of respect. I will talk like this."
Or it is the same deal as Shinobu and that is just how she learned Japanese a long time back.
@@TulipQ also as a fiend her personality is that of a demon and the body is stolen, so maybe blood demon is male and old, or non determined and old, or just power thinks its cool like you said, lol.
@@TulipQ power lived in the mounstains isolated from the world for an unkown amount of time before being found by the government, it's more likely that she has an incharacter reasson for he speech rather than it being a reference to fiction.
Not only that, but Powers gender is really only determined by her intellect. We think of her as female because of how she presents, but she is a Devil who just took over a female body. So maybe her dialect is how she used to speak before possesing a body. It reflects more of how they see themselves.
If we account to when people started fearing blood (I would say that it was even before they feared spears) then it makes sense that the longest she had been in contact with speaking humans was during the old times. Which lasted much longer than our modern era.
I need "How Denji speaks Japanese" video, he seems like he talk like native casual teenage speaker, a lot of phrases seem real to me.
Yuta can you elaborate on this, please I need Japanese opinion since I am not that proficient...
Somehow he said two or three words and the subtibles translate a whole phrase,or barely say anithing and the others xharaxters understand,for xample:
Himano: will you help me get Aki to love me or something?
Denji: Haa Mii
Himano:Great seems you are into that women
Denji: Na an To de.
it may be how young ppl reply...
So in short
Power is a gilf
in spanish, power uses words that are uncommon in the language today (like archaic adjetives) to make this distinction.
Well, you guys tried better than the English one, IMO.
@@danielantony1882 the English translation is still awkward and shows she is being weird and not speaking normally
@@statesminds To what extent though?
I knew about how she spoke in an older japanese accent but it's cool to see it actually broken down and explained in detail
yuta can sing, voice act, and teachs us japanese a man of many talents
Well, that's certainly a choice of thumbnail
Is it present in the anime ?
@@henrytownshend8862 It is
@@SamuraiPipotchi thx
Sora the Troll is waiting for you!! :D
ai fairouz got some range
確かに可愛いけど、最初から、「お爺さんの喋り方しとんねん」と気づいたわ
3:56 翻訳が全然違ったのが気になってたので、取り上げてくださって溜飲が降りました。
I have a feeling something was off thx for telling us about power that helps a lot
the US translator made a twitter thread about how he worked out that characterization into his translation after people complained the subs sounded weird. It's a nice read if you care about that stuff.
@@canalsincontenido What's the link?
Boy, I would love to know the history on why the language drifted the way it did. How じゃ morphed into だ and the like.
I read once about how the casual copuka だ morphed from the older form である, and that was really interesting.
I'm glad I purchased your course, even more so now that I know you follow Chainsaw Man!
This reminds me of the character Kiss-shot from Bakemonogatari. An ancient vampiress that addresses herself with _washi_ similar to Power.
She mentions her in the video. 3:20
深く考えたことなかったけど、こういうキャラの翻訳とかって難しそー
I think that she Speaks like that because of Tatsuki Fujimotos influence from western movies. In western movies the antagonist or the one in Power uses and older dialect of english , kind of like medieval in their speech patterns and the such, In the manga it is not discussed why she speaks like that , but in the translation she is speaking like a Shakespearean actor or contemporary.
no I think she's just being chuunibyou, devils come to the world being able to speak the human language without a hitch
power just thought it was cool that old man characters that speak like that are respected so she wants to speak like that to be respected (her line of thought)
I love these videos so much!
Power's age is actually unknown. As is the time when she took control of the body we see in Chainsaw Man. Power's gender is equally ambiguous. For all we know the way Power speaks now could be totally in line with the form or representation the blood devil had before becoming a fiend.
The quality of this video is actually pretty good, I love to see it man, keep up the good work!
Love the Power voice acting you do xD
This also applies to "Frederica" from 86. She was difficult to understand for me cause of her archaic way of speaking. Could make a good future video Yuta-san!
Shoutout to young anime girls that speak like an ojiisan
Gotta be one of my favourite genders
Those Details. 🤯 🤩
I expected her to speak in an old fashioned way cuz the English translation in mangaplus used Shakespearean words like ‘tis for her speech lol
Yeah, basically. But that's as much as English can go in terms of Yakuwarigo.
Great series of how anime characters speak Japanese. Please do Itsuki Nakano from the quintessential quintuplets or any or all the 7 main characters in TQQ. how they speak Japanese I believe is very important to understanding the plot eg the honorifics, the lost in translation stuff (eg when they say things like tsurui, hatsukoi, uso, etc that are removed from the dub). I compiled a lot of the lost in translation stuff in r/gotoubun
Something to consider about Itsuki:
The Quintessential Quintuplets' character types are:
Ichika - Onee-san / ara ara,
Nino - tsundere,
miku - kuudere / dandere,
Yotsuba - genki
Itsuki - ??
- Tsundere like Nino?
- Eat-suki?
- Imouto?
- Someone who speaks keigo to their siblings, to Fuutarou and to Raiha and to everyone basically?
I have a theory as to what Itsuki's type is, but you're not gonna like it...
Do you have a link to that compilation?
@@kuubilal yeah again it's r/gotoubun
@@kuubilal also are you the same u/muyuu from r/chesstempo and r/chesstactics ?
@@kuubilal I updated my comment to say more stuff after ' r/gotoubun ' :

@@kuubilal fine i'll just tell you. it's itsuki x uesugi but a different uesugi. what do you think?
so itsuki's type is being bi. everything else follows from this
protagonist type - fuutarou is protagonist and marries genki girl imouto yotsuba. because itsuki is bi, itsuki is protagonist and marries genki girl imouto uesugi.
keigo speaking type, proper type, stubborn type or tsukkomi type - again it all comes down to how fuutarou is very similar to itsuki (as ichika points out in S01E06) and how uesugi is very similar to yotsuba (as fuutarou indirectly points out in s01e06)
eat-suki - because itsuki is bi, itsuki is eat-suki type because uesugi is good at cooking
imouto type - need i say more? uesugi has no older female immediate family members. itsuki has no younger female immediate family members. both uesugi & itsuki are imouto's
look up r/itsuesugi
Your content is so great and useful. It allows us to learn Japanese with logic and sense.
Thank you, Yuta-san. 🙂
What about Kotaro Lives Alone (コタローは1人暮らし)? The little boy supposedly speaks formally and old-fashioned, because of watching his favourite samurai t.v. show? I'd love to hear how you'd analyze or react to that. :)
Thank you yuta
When i started reading CSM in japanese one of my first think was; Did Yuta san do a movie how they speak japanese. And of course he did it, I hope in future you will do for example how Kishibe speaks Japanese or how Denji speaks Japanese becouse Chainsaw Man have (for me) one of the most intresting japanese slangs etc.
Yuta please help Sora the Troll he is streaming untill you noticed him
Man got his priorities straight in the thumbnail
I think theres 2 reasons. To start blood demon is old old demon. And also doesn't need to be male or female, it just got power's body from some human
Demons do have male or female voices and can have relationships (bat and slug). Also all the demons are old and they don't all talk like that.
That explains why in the English dub they made the VA to speaks Archaic English. Good job on that I suppose
Great video!
The English dub (and even the English manga) has Power speak like she’s from the medieval age at times. It’s definitely a quirky, archaic way she speaks to be distinct and/or a self-serving attempt at demanding respect. Great character!
i love power's speech, so interesting
This was informative and interesting.
With the new Urusei Yatsura reboot out, I would love to see a video on how Lum the alien girl speaks Japanese.
I love Power. She’s so outrageous. Haha
Thank you for explaining the language so clearly. I wonder what the effect is of the words spoken in that way, is?
this is so cool, I'm so proud of myself for noticing her dialect and tone sounded kinda weird...at first I thought it was osakaben (she kind of sounded like kero from card captor sakura) and it seems like I was only mostly wrong, there are western japanese dialects with similar tone patterns
youre the best maboi yuta
If I had a nickel for every time the demon sidekick to the Chad-virgin main character that speaks like a stereotypical old man was best girl of the show, I would have two nickels.
Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.
Chainsaw man author is a fan of Monogatari series. He's put some other references of Monogatari in his other works aa well.
I like your drip Yuta cool Jacket 👍
SAO's Cardinal speaks like this too and there's something very lovely about it coming from her
Thumbnail on point
I noticed the way she speaks immediately. Thanks for the insight 🐱
I chose CSM as the first manga to read in Japanese (after I've already read it in English) and it was a pain. Everyone was speaking in some weird way. Now I'm reading Non Non Biyori and actually understand what is being said.
Reminds me of oda nobunaga from fgo
That hoodie looks mad comfy
I wish you could react on Ushio's Japanese (from Summertime Render) which I think she uses Kansai dialect same with Mitsuha.
That, is a thumbnail.
lol Yuta sora is waiting for you
Go and join his stream
No wonder I wasn't hearing the "t" in 私
her japanese is similar to yoroichi and yamamoto genryuusai from bleach. i specifically call this dialect JIJI dialect. they tend to use washi, Jya instead of Desu, Da.
The thumbnail is excellent
I somehow found both current and old thumbnails
This reminds me a bit of Akatsuki in Naruto
どうもありがとぎいます、you can't belive but only yesterday I saw 3 parts of that anime but with English subtitles. 日本語がまだ良くできます❗
Nice Thumbnail👌
これを読んでくださっている皆様へ ご健康 と ご幸福 を お祈り 致します! 💓
Not gonna lie, I click on the videos because I am interested in how he will lead into his "I will teach you the kind..." spiel. Also the Zero Two girl is cute
Wow cool, i've learn about old dialect even though i haven't learn japanese.
Thumbail : ah yes man of culture
I think jinbei in one piece also speaks like this but something that I always can’t understand is the sentences akainu in one piece speaks cuz it seems like another dialect
She has horns!!
Well Power is probably old since she was once a demon
ONE PIECEのYamatoも同じ
僕っ子
LOL you can really tell that first real life old guy was from Tokyo
Jahy also speak like this she's also similar to Shinobu cuz she lost some of her power and became smol
i havent watched many anime in sub but coz i wanted to watch CSM ASAP i used it sub and i noticed that too that her japanese sounds different
Could you do a video on how Yor Forger speaks Japanese?
What a thumbnail
i think u should talk about the thumbnail
Interesting
♥
2:54 who is this guy? I've been looking for him for years because i watched his old videos
reacting to foreigner speaking fluent japanese accents
Yuta you look really good with that goatee and hair style.
Ichinose Kotomi episode when
Never watched this anime but she did say she was a demon... so.. demons are old, right?
I could pick up on the ja, but I completely missed the washi and nou.
nawa pawa washida
Can you make video like this like Cid kagenou 🙏
3:55 snifffffffffffffffaahhhhhhh...........,😵
Jahy from "Jahy-sama wa kujikenai" speaks in a sort of similar way. "da" -> "ja", but "ware" instead of "washi".
Thumbnail🤨🤨🤨
nice thumbnail
I'm not a Japanese speaker but I knew there was something different about power's Japanese when see kept ending most of her sentences with "ja"
Sorry for off-topic, but could you do a video of something I've been wondering about for years now. In anime (at least in the ones I watch), mostly girls use an expression when they are extremely surprising and it goes like "Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee?!" It sounds cute and I try to replicate it in real life... so... do girls use this phrase when they are surprised in real life or is it anime-only?
キルアじゃなきゃだめなんだ
my only thought would be power is actually a young girl possessed by a fiend. I'm assuming the fiend is older and thus would use an old dialect.
Also thanks. I've been doing duolingo japanese for 70 days now and today i learn i'm speaking like an old man. Because they definitely use washi, no, and ja
Please do a 'How Lum Speaks Japanese', the female lead character from Urusei Yatsura that is recently airing?
She has a peculiar accent, and annotates each sentence with 'cha', and it drives me nuts as to why. I can't find anyone that knows that Japanese accent or behavior. Maybe it's just made up?
"Datcha" is an old dialect of the Sendai region and eastern Tottori.
It is called the Ramu language because few people know the dialect nowadays.
It's a classic joke about aliens speaking a country language.
@@user-ys8xe1xd2x Ohhhh! Ok! Thank you so much for explaining! I appreciate it! 👍☺
@@user-ys8xe1xd2x Wow, it's so rare, I cant even find any videos about it on youtube! lol
first time my friend showed me power on tiktok I asked him why she speaks that way ( is there an old man inside that body?) wow I'm proud, I'm only at N5 level 😅
Why yuta why! I haven't watched monogatari yet and you spoiled a character's conection with the boy
W thumb Nail
well, devils can be decades old, so.. yeah
Humans can be decades old as well.
@@SuviTuuliAllan I know but her appearance doesn't seem like she is that old. Fiends get human bodies, right? She was a devil for a while before she became a Fiend.. who knows how long, tho..
@@Daesma999 I read the manga's first part and she doesn't tell how many years she is
@@Nayushe0 that's what I'm saying. She can be really old devil.. or not. Who knows.. but I think her being old is more likely.
I think you mean centuries old
