AS REPOARTED
Why can't nips hire people who can speak non-accented english for english lines? I mean it doesn't have to even be a professional VA. It can't be that hard to find someone who speaks it fluently and normally, right?
I mean I'm certain most of /a/ would do it for free.
>>134886745
It's actually easier to speak English than Japanese. Baka.

Raging Heart is voiced by an Australian ex-pat -- but still got given lines in Engrish like "I can still be shot".

Eva Rebuild 3 you know the scene

Because anime is broadcasted in Japan. Since most of them aren't good at English at all, they can't decide if the English sounds fluent or not.

That's not necessarily Engrish, just short for "I can still be shot with".

Why do Japanese people talk in that weird pitched voice when speaking English as opposed to their regular voice. Is this how they think it sounds?
>>134891973
To be fair, pretty much all Japanese anime songs have just as nonsensical lyrics.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X97K-euUDfs
>>134891973
That's not really Engrish, it's just bad lyrics.
I know not /a/ related but

Every Fucking AC song out there has some sick Engrish
I don't have it on webm, but there was that whole episode of a ika musume where they were speaking English and Cindy randomly got a english va.

>>134891346
Came here to post this. Also, Symphogear has had some really bad Engrish going on.
>>134886003
The official lyrics don't even make sense in English, and it is worse that they can't even pronounce it
Still my favorite character select screen song

This was so cute though.

>>134886745
Because most japs don't know any better, it's not worth the effort of finding perfect English speakers for what's usually a handful of lines as very few people would notice anyway.
>>134892585
goddamn thats how i want my anime milfs japan
>>134891978
Received pronunciation. Or it's just how they were taught during English class, so without more familiarity with the language, they don't dare deviate too far.
>>134891878
Amen
Nao Toyama for all the Engrish.

See, here's why your opinion is shit.
Psycho piss movie.
Wasn't even the worst engrish but why did it have to take up half the fucking movie.
>>134898020
The Japanese VAs can't voice act in English either anyway so it doesn't matter.

Why does that voice actor seem convinced "what" is pronounced "hwaet"? That was only it's historical pronunciation.

Eh I only remember HanaKana saying it. That's the only bit of the movie I remember. Fact, that's the only remotely enjoyable part of it.
That and seeing the first nigger in anime since the 90's
They could get Hawaiian guys if they really cared, like TK on Angel Beats

The only people in Japan with good English are either foreigners or people who studied at international academies, and neither of those are likely to work as VAs.
I know there are few VAs who do speak English fluently - mainly because they're mixed and lived in some English speaking country for a while - but they are never used to speak English.
I also assume there's a chance the directors think that since the source material used katakana, then that should be kept.
Asians don't seem to care much about realism and accuracy when it comes down to entertainment, unlike Westerners who will bitch at anything that deviates, even slightly, from whatever they deem as correct, accurate and realistic.
>>134899894
The one that comes to my head most, and he's not a VA but an actor, is the guy who played Kabuto in Kamen Rider Kabuto. When he speaks English, it's like he's a completely different person. No accent or anything.
All of them.
Japanese can't into english.
>>134886745
Sometimes they pull foreigners off the street to do stuff like this: https://youtu.be/8-vfZFD_TXY?t=14m27s
>THE PLACE IS A LOFTY LORD CAN'T MEET NOBODY PUT ON
>>134900158
Those performances always did strike me as "they went to a mall and grabbed the first white person they saw".
I liked when they found some white people to do a couple voices in Yama no Susume and they kept making the characters pop up repeatedly over multiple episodes.
Nanoha made it sound good.
>>134896407
Hers is cute compared to a lot of others I think.
>>134900680
That's because they chose someone who already did things like PA announcements on the shinkansen.
>>134900014
Which weird given how much they use it.
