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, moved to Japan in her teens. I think she was struggling more with the accent than the language, yeah.

Watching her youtube videos were funny because the Japanese subtitles underneath mosstly glossed over what she's actually saying in English

I'm late to this show (and it's frigging adorable), but I wanted to shout out Sally's podcast: Anime English Club with Sally Amaki. It's been very fun to listen to!

Anime English Club is a podcast, where we use anime as a bridge to help connect our listeners to the English world.

Each episode we explore a different line or scene from an anime and discuss how you would say it in English.

This show is hosted by Sally Amaki, a voice actor and idol born in the U.S. and lives in Japan. Hope it can also be a tool for everyone to learn and enjoy English!

So far, she's focused on Haikyuu!!, Ouran High School Club, Oshi No Ko, and now Tokyo Revengers.
