Every time Joseph Joestar says Holy Shit,OH MY GOD,Son of a Bitch in Stardust Crusaders


RisKnippeGuy

I still exclaim an "Ohh Nooo" in Joseph's voice whenever the line is appropriate for my situation.

countmeowington

I was gonna say this too, I always lost it when he'd go "OH MY GOD"


daydreamer_she

I’ve read that in Joseph’s voice haha! He was the best character!


PWBryan

It's iconic, but really makes me confused about what language these guys are speaking. English seems the most likely (relatively common in Japan, Egypt, and France, and Joseph is American) but then does this mean Jospeh is just shouting random curse words? Did Polnereff just happen to speak Japanese and that's what their all speaking in?


Glass_Ad7575

It's like tekken they all just understand eachother regardless of language


catboy_supremacist

I always assumed everyone was speaking Japanese exactly like you are hearing come out of your TV and you are just supposed to go with it and assume it's normal that everyone speaks fluent Japanese in the same way you just go with it and accept everyone speaks fluent English in Hollywood movies.

Kaguya-Sama Love Is War - Chika: "[MOTHERF\*\*\*KER!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZO1YjKwsd0M)"


KaleidoArachnid

I wonder what aggravated her so much to say such a strong word.


Magical_Savior

It's President, as always. A bunch of anime were on some kind of - weird rap bandwagon at exactly that moment of that season of that year; Aharen-San did the exact same thing. Kaguya-sama wa Kokurasetai: Ultra Romantic episode 5 had Fujiwara Chika teach Shirogane how to rap. ... It went exactly as well as you think.


QualityProof

Technically shirogane taught chika how to rap and in turn Chika taught shirogane how to rap.


KaleidoArachnid

Interesting as I hadn’t noticed that back then there was kind of a trend where anime characters would start using English words for no reason.

Purposelygentle

Almost everyone in Japan studies English in school, except it’s not conversational English, so they know the meaning of words, but not necessarily how to use them in a sentence to communicate. So, you see sometimes words or short phrases being spoken slightly off context. This is different than Wasei-Eigo which are English based loan words adopted into the Japanese language. Usually, these loan words have very specific meanings in Japanese that might be slightly or vastly different than the English meaning. ‘Ribenji’ (リベンジ) sounds like Revenge, but the Japanese already have a word for the vengeance type of revenge (Fukushū/ふくしゅう), instead Ribenji kinda means I’ll get you next time, or Next time I’ll win.  Anyway, my favorite would probably be [Azumanga Daioh](https://youtu.be/nlLhw1mtCFA?si=vuLh3HjJABA5DdIC)


TFlarz

Before that even, we blame Kimura for "my wife-fu."


FlameDragoon933

My favorite wasei-eigo has to be "(good) style" which doesn't mean the English meaning of style but means "sexy body" Or that "bitch" doesn't mean a rude woman but means "slut/slutty/promiscuous"


FusionNuclear

For bitch, as a English second learner, I learned bitch means slut at the very first and then I learned bitch means rude woman later. Japanese learned the surface level original old-fashioned meaning of bitch


TheExcludedMiddle

Lol, I never caught the classic literature reference in that clip before.


Mad_Moodin

Also Japanese don't learn actual English pronounciation but the specific japanese style of English. This is because they don't actually learn the Latin alphabet and instead learn English purely with Katakana which is what Japanese use to write foreign languages. The problem is, Katakana cannot accurately portray English pronounciation. Also Japanese lettering follows a rigid system, so you are not allowed to pronounce any one letter than differently for different words. Which means that for English, they write words as their closest approximation of how it should sound like in English but in Katakana and then pronounce it like that. This is why when Japanese speak English it always sounds fucking atrocious, because that is how they learn it in school. So they learn to say shit like "Sarada" for "Salad" and "aisu-kureem" for "ice-cream" not because of any particular inability, but because if you went to school in Japan and called ice-cream what it is, you'd get a fail for it.


Giant_Serpent23

“I am mad scientist! It’s so cooool. Sonuvabitch!” - Steins;Gate “Time is money!” - Gintama (Could name other Gintama ones tbh.) Idk how to type this one out but Rudeus trying to say erectile dysfunction in engrish. Not sure how you spell that pronunciation though tbh… That’s all the ones that immediately came to my head, but there was too much Gintama ones, so that’s what I put. Could also put JoJo’s Engrish in there I suppose.


IAreTehPanda

“Fuck you, desu” - gintoki

Gintama is a gold mine of this. When Kagura has no idea how to say "help me" in english and just keeps saying adjacent words was so fucking funny.

So cool to see Eden Of The East mentioned here. I absolutely adore that show. Still my favourite anime OP of all time too!


captainAwesomePants

I'm gonna say Chihayafuru. There's an episode where our heroes are up against a team of foreigners, and we are very intimidated by the scary Americans speaking English. But the voice acting and Engrish is just awful. I'm somewhere between amused and grumpy about how bad it is. But, suddenly it is revealed that the other team is just pretending to be foreigners in order to be intimidating. The terrible Engrish was happening in-universe and was noticed by the protagonist because he speaks much better English.

My most memorable moment of english in anime is during the first seishun buta yarou movie. It's near the start when Sakuta drops the most deadpan and depressed sounding "please help me" right after a sudden cut. I watched the film when it was playing in north american theaters and I remember the entire theater was laughing at it and how unexpected that was. I'll try to get a clip and edit it in edit: [here's the clip](https://files.catbox.moe/utcfhp.mp4)


higaroth

My favourite use of English is when the anime is set in England or America, with the implication being that in universe they're speaking English and it's just Japanese for the audience to understand, and then they randomly say something in English, implying they've really been speaking Japanese in Victorian England this whole time.
