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.

Sally Amaki

By any chance, was English her second language? There was just a way that she spoke that seemed a little stilted, similar to Vegeta’s VA doing Hattori Heiji’s English dialogue in Detective Conan. Just the way she delivered certain lines felt distracting to the ear, but that might be because she’s also trying to imitate a UK accent on top of it?

Born and grew up in america. She wanted to be a VA, so she goes back to Japan to practice her Japanese there.
