I wouldn’t be surprised if lots of Japanese people will be watching this anime to learn English alongside Renji.

The language barrier between Renji and Lily will undoubtedly lead to more misunderstandings, but it’s a fun dynamic!

You know that Lily is from a proper British family, given that mom asked her daughter to join her for a cup of tea.

Despite being an American, Sally Amaki (Lily’s VA) has pulled off a British accent relatively well. A part of me did wish that Lily had been given a thick dialect from Northern England instead of a posh one.

I fully expected it to be the usual Japanese person speaking English, always trying their best but still it's always so botched.. Unexpected surprise to hear proper English, and with a British accent no less.

I fully thought it WAS a Japanese person, etc. The accent is awful. You're not British, are you?

Well, it very obviously is meant to be a British accent, everyone can hear it's meant to be a British accent.. therefor, they are infact doing a great job.

Give it a couple more episodes; she has barely spoken yet.

I thought she was supposed to be American until they said she was from England :P
