The token gaijin seiyuu that speaks flawless English

What?

Her recent work was Asobi Asobase? That's a shame she hasn't gotten any more roles since that.

Dunno how Tomino got this half jap-aussie seiyuu to work for him.

The best English I've heard in an anime was from the foreign girl in Ika Musume, of all things.

The worst was that plane scene in Seitokai Yakuindomo. It had subs and I still couldn't understand it.

This is not even understandable without subtitles
Now this is impressive

Not that this stops them being given Engrish dialog.

>Ika Musume
They had a gaijin patching up for that episode.

>the veteran seiyuu who did a role with the director saying there was very little russian but ended up reading pure cyrillic scripts

Do you remember that time when the production staff for Thermae Romae just grabbed a random white guy and threw him down a waterside?
I thought it was funny.

Are there Japanese who speak flawless English?

>Reuben speaks decent Japanese
Damn, that's dedication
You can tell he genuinely loves the series

His German is better than mine.

The Engrish in Symphogear has to be both the worst and most funny I have ever heard.

Nao Toyama's English is decent. Not that you could tell by what she's done voicing Kongou.

Miyuki Sawashiro's is good. youtube.com/watch?v=70C_wz_cMSs

Yuu Asakura can write in English really well (see her Twitter). Not sure about her spoken English.

Akino and the rest of Bless4 all do English well because they're Mormon and grew up in Utah. They're also not seiyuu, though. They did a totally English version of Extra Magic Hour that's really good. It's on iTunes. The only place I can find it not sped up is on NicoNico. nicovideo.jp/watch/sm28207618

Is that Yukarin? Fuck she's small.

FIRE FIRE

I think she's like 5'1". I might be wrong.

>Yuu Asakawa
Her English pretty good, you can drop at her stream and ask something, if you interested.

>thinking you can stop Chadmino

The seiyuu for Fujiwara from Asobi Asobase was born and raised in Australia, so she's fluent in English: youtu.be/zF0Bcn9SS8c
She also voices Warspite (a British ship) in Kancolle: youtu.be/3LwchtP14cY

I laugh every time I hear Iowa's stroke when you log into the game.

are you taking the piss?

Or he's been a massive weeb from the start.

Maaaaaaan I really hope Toei reach out to him for the Kabuto episodes, they didn't for HGF but come on!!

Why is Kabuto so based

The horrible engrish you hear in anime is often on purpose.

Watch symphogear to have your ears bleed from Sawashiros engrish then look for any interview with her, she speaks english perfectly fine.

Disconnect between the script writer and the seiyuu I'm guessing?

More like Nips have difficulty understanding actual English than Engrish.

Hikaru Utada is the most well known one I'd say

Devilman Crybaby managed to have voice actors with flawless Russian (the professor in the first episode and the troops in one of the last episodes) yet English in it was fucking horrible

Cute that she even tried doing an accent

OI GUVNAH

Watched this vid earlier of a mosaic VA saying she had decent pronunciation and jesus christ how can japs be so oblivious to how bad their pronunciation is? Do they not watch any kind of media in any other than Japanese to at least have a slight idea of how other languages sound like?

>Not sure about her spoken English.
She's good, better than most. You can hear her speaking english in her streams.

>Nao Toyama speaking English on stream
Got any links?

He was talking about Yuu Asakawa.

She has a youtube channel where she uploads her stream.

He voiced the belkan devices in Nanoha, it was great.

>Yuu Asakura
that slip

With Yukarin, yes.

Not sure if German is really his first language. He can almost pass as a native German speaker, but his pronunciation is a little bit off two times, and even without seeing his face first my guess would have been Japanese. But he has definitely spent a decade or two in Germany, among Germans. You don't learn this casual dialect from a textbook or a teacher.

Their traffic lights are red, yellow and blue?

Well, Japanese language didn't have the color green originally. It was just a shade of blue.

Japanese is a "grue" language -- and if you've ever noticed traffic lights in anime, they are usually drawn as cyan.

Yes.

Interesting. Just looked it up. Seems like their use of midori is concentrated around plants and plant-related stuff.

They had a lot of those back in the day.

No, buttwipe, it's Angela Orosco!

>"grue"

Is that anything like "bleen"? (nb4 whales)

No Japanese characters ever speak good English.

>single gaijin seiyuu
Romi Paku, but she is korean.

Amagami SS Sae Route had a foreigner talk to him in perfect english

Basically purely native Japanese speakers will always have some problems with l and r, like if you don't learn the difference during early brain development you can never perfect it.

t. read an wikipedia article about it

Has anybody posted this yet?

I've noticed that if a Japanese (and some South Koreans) singer is fluent in English, they'll almost always try to flaunt it by throwing English words into their songs. Utada Hikaru and Nano in particular do this a lot.

That's because they wrote english in Katakana not in latin. So they read it in japanese pronounce, like the word Speed in japanese it's スピード read as Supido.

Does Amaki Sally count? She was born and raised in California

Officially, Sawashiro's character in Symphogear was fluent in English but mispronouncing things on purpose.

I finally understand why the japanese like idols so much

Why was that one old guy in the Cartado collectors shop the only person in the whole series who pronounced it like an English speaker? Why not just tell him to leave it kaatado?

Why would they do that?

She wanted to mock the Americans she was talking to, or wanted them to underestimate her, or something like that.

Chris's VA has done surprisingly good English songs, though she doesn't get to use it in the series.
