Don't worry Yuta, the second cour is definitely better than the first one, many waifus rank will be rearranged just like Satella and Dona rank lmao, well more than that, it will be a masterpiece, just wait for January
this series is so interesting to me! you know, a good one to do might be Honda Tohru from Fruits Basket! I noticed that her polite Japanese seems a bit odd, I think because she's supposed to be mimicing her father's speech patterns? I would love to know the specifics of it, and I'm sure there are a lot of people who didn't even notice it! just a thought, keep up the great work! (◠‿・)-☆
This is interesting, I was starting to wonder if there are the male equivalent of female character using boku speech during the early minutes and you went with Kaworu that's basically straight answering the question lol. I never notice before because back then I watched Eva without understanding Japanese but now after watching it again Kaworu does uses many feminine word choices.
It's sad how all this non-verbal information about Equidna is lost to non japanese speakers while watching the anime. Being able to identify that something is wrong with her just by the way she talks is amazing for character building Thanks for sharing all this information! Love your channel
@@Archimedes.5000 This is why I'm so much more into anime than manga. The amount of talent and work the VAs contribute makes such a huge difference even if I'm not fluent in Japanese Like you can straight up hear echidna's confidence vanish in that one scene where subaru just up and leaves xD
@@Archimedes.5000 I agree, and if you watch videos like these and pay a bit of extra attention when watching, you can sometimes pick up on these things even without being anywhere near fluent in Japanese.
The reason why she switches the speaking patterns is because she wants to influence Subaru into giving her information. She does not understands emotion and human interaction, so the first times she meets him she tries different ways to talk with him so that she can conquer his trust, but ends up looking strange to Subaru himself.
Is that mentioned in the light novel? I would have assumed it was because she holds herself to a higher standard than regular humanity, hence why she hates the people that cast the witches aside. She sees humans as lower and lesser intelligent beings as she has so much knowledge (being the witch of greed) that she sees Subaru as less than her and as such she should talk down to him instead of feminine, and when he doesn’t recognise her power or the situation he is in she is so shocked she reverts back to her feminine self.
@@matthew2000slater more or less this. She tries to instill fear into him, but he already knows he cannot die, so he just rushes the discussion to help Emilia and Echidna understands that authority or power doesn't falther him, so she starts to play into a hopeless woman. She hasn't read his mind yet, but she heard of Emilia and she thinks that maybe a woman would be much more efficient in her pursue of knowledge than just being opressive. All she does in that scene is calculated, she hasn't slipped up once during it xD
About girls using Boku in anime: Usually, tomboys use it, it's even has it's own trope name called "Bokukko". Echidna is not a stereotypical "Bokukko" though, which makes her even more alien.
Really like the Re:Zero character vids. Awesome explanations of the translations and speech patterns. You've really helped me understand another aspect about Japanese language. 4:10 probably my favorite of the season. So cool you covered that one specifically :D
I think both Echidna and Kaoru were trying to project a more "intimate" relation to the people they were speaking to, as if they were "lovers" or something just as close. They wanted to get as close as possible MENTALY/EMOTIONALY to Subaru/Shinji.
@@bimomuzakki9379 Not all Japanese always watch anime. It's the same as calling every US citizen a furry because there's allot of furries in kids shows.
In the scene where subaru is breaking down in front of echidna being able to talk about return by death, echidna says something in the lines of "i want to know everything about you, because I'm echidna" and she uses the word 欲しい (want) there with a certain undertone, almost sexual you could say. I've heard the word 欲しい can indeed have a sexual undertone. So does she almost have a "sexual" desire for knowledge as the witch of greed?
@@ctrlzme.6448 I saw it many times on other profiles too,that picture is not the only one , there's also one with night time city on the river side and also a mountain with clods scenery. I am not talking about variations,all three pictures are the same 3 all the time
How have I never seen your channel before? I always knew that anime is a bad place to learn anime, but I've always wanted to learn it specifically to understand anime better. This is the exact kind of video I've been looking for to learn it. Not a lot of the dry text or grammar rules, but picking apart the things that really differentiate the anime characters and why. You've earned yourself a subscriber, thanks!
I’m sick and tired of reading these unoriginal and repetitive Jojo memes everywhere on the internet. Seriously any noobs out there, nothing makes you more of an obnoxious noob than making jojo references.
For some reason it seems to me that the "masculine" pattern of speech is used to ascertain dominance in some way and the "feminine" is more like to show submission or humility. So Echidna talks in a "masculine" pattern to show that she is in charge of the situation, but changes it to a more submissive tone when she wants something from Subaru or to make Subaru drop his guard since (spoiler alert) she is playing him... The same way, maybe, people use a more submissive pattern of speech when using Keigo to show humility.
While the difference in speech patterns to express emotional states may not translate in the subtitles to non-Japanese speakers, the tone of voice often does the same to express this. Not saying your point is invalid at all, as I love the idea of my Japanese comprehension getting to a level where I can easily pick up on this, which is one of the reasons I enjoy this series of videos so much. (: just pointing out the skill of the seiyuu can express the same thing the writers are trying to express with speech patterns in their tone of voice when they deliver the lines. But yeah love this series, and I always eagerly await new videos! 💙
It passed 5 min and I was wondering when you would include the advertisement for your classes. They came a little late this time hahahah. It was a really nice video, it gives her so much characterization.
I mean the whole point of the witches is that they are all driven by a single obsession to the point of lacking the multifaceted nature of humanity. If anything these are the least complex characters in the series and therein lies the horror in that simplicity. Since they can't be reasoned or dealt with in a way you would a normal pragmatic human being.
@@ceresbane although I agree with you, I would say there is maybe some mistake in the way he said it, Equidna is complex when it comes to her background, all the mistery behind her and her intentions, of course, her intention is just to know everything, but that is only the surface, from there it comes the questions, how will she do that? what will she do? So in that sense she is complex.
@@danielantony1882 that doesn't say anything. For example, let's consider a multiple option test by Equidna, do you think she is only interested in knowing what you will choose? She also has preferences and she will try to lead you so that you choose what she wants you to choose. To say Everything is just trying to minimize her, and doesn't really say anything, is an empty word, and more considered that it is even incorrect, she is not even interested in anything related with Satella.
Dude Subaru so needed someone to be able to talk about Return by Death with, she just ended up wanting to use him, that sucked so much, just makes me want to hate her
You said if a female celebrity uses “boku” they’re most likely playing a character. In this situation, echidna is playing a character more so an act to hide her true motives in the anime. I think that somehow connects 👀
@@hooman5501 I also remember when reading some chapter of Arc's 4 web novel, she also uses "Watashi" in speaking to Garfiel...when Garfiel did the trial. But when she speaks to the witches, Subaru and even Emiia, she then goes back in using "Buko" which I find it interesting....If I am correct, I had read this from a comment of someone who knows Japanese, according to that person, Buko was not just used by young men...it can be used as a sign of respect to someone...having to learned that, I had now understand why she uses Buko towards the witches since she shows respect to them as they are her kind of sisters. In Subaru...I also know why she did that because of the ulterior motive she has...which we've seen it s2 ep 12. But in Emilia's case...I just find it interesting that despite how she claims she had hated her...she still in somewhat shows a little bit respect for her...by using the term "Buko" For me it implies that there is really something deep going on between their connection. Sorry if it got long..hehehhe. Just by thinking of it...gives me a lot of excitement for what about to come.
Koaru seems to be everyone's favorite. Back when anime was expensive and on VHS I specifically bought only one Evangelion tape, the one with Koaru. I bought End of Evangelion twice, one a bootleg from eBay, just because I heard Koaru came back. Honestly, I think Koaru was good for Shinji. They could have had a good life together, perhaps.
Yes. I was quite amazed by how, you trace back to lines from evangelion.. .. ah. But you explained alr.. still it's quite amazing.. (Got to scan through the video/ anime etc )
In indonesia also has so many first person pronunciation such as "Saya and aku "or if you are going to Jakarta you can find some people use "Gue" as their first person pronoun well it's actually depending on which provice that you are going to . .
Well, that's easy to explain. It's because she is a bit tomboyish and rough herself. I mean just look how she interacts with other (refined) gods. I also think she uses it to break the pattern of normality. She doens't bend to other's rules, she just wants to live the way she wants. How did she start on earth? Poor, no members in her familia. These things may ultimately led to the usage of boku. Boku --> masculine --> Strength
@@tjossai9302 But appart from sentence-ending particles, is there much to say, kana kana? Also, 「なのです」 has been explained here if you're interested: ruclips.net/video/lYvIOi8Q3I8/видео.html
I love the witch of greed, the witch of sloth, the witch of wrath, the witch of lust and the witch of envy (the version of Satella in the dream world).
I'll never get tired of hearing about the nuance that's present in other languages. It makes me wonder what kind of stuff we have like that in english that I don't really think about.
After watching Violet Evergarden, I definitely would be interested in a video dissecting her speech. She seems to be talking very formally all the time.
mmm if I am not wrong, it is the most formal way to say it, and it could be used, for example, when the president is given a speech or if you are talking to him, or if you are in a meeting with the higher ups of a big company or similar things that require utmost formality. So, it is not like you feel superior or anything like that.
It's the most polite and humble form of I. However, there are still a few older women who use it on purpose in a certain way when no such politeness is required (like speaking to store cleark for example) to make look like she is of upper class (not self importance) but this won't work for a guy. I assume watakushi was relatively new term (maybe after meiji?) or maybe had been known only among the upper class people before, so the use of such word makes one look like he/she is from the upper class. I'm Japanese.
Every time i see your video from some cool anime speaking analysis im excited as i love learning about weird words and dialects to just find out its just for total beginner :( But.... if you look for next idea, i can see you are man of culture as well (and as im in the middle of 'trying' to read LN) you could do deeper analize of Shinobu from monogatari Also for sake of channel growth, kimetsu would be great as movie just exloded. Even our god Shinkaisan was talking about it... but to be honest i dont remember any specific pattern Still monogatari would ve great source for shinobu, oshino and pretty much every character with cool phrases like ii koto demo atta no kai or nandemo shiranai ha yo, shitteru koto dake etc Also i know dubs suck, but subs? How the heck you translated shiranai mono wa nai sa into Everybody knows your name? :v
Sakamoto is the jitsuryokuha-seiyuu that never shines on the stage but always makes every show she plays shine Besides Shinobu and Echidna were all played by Sakamoto
On the topic of when she kinda breaks her character i will argue the intonation of the voice conveys that she is like desperate and the subs kinda convey that too so i don't think the meaning is lost.
Can you make one video of these but related to DIO from JoJo. I got the impression that Koyasu speaks in a script that it might sound a bit more difficult than the other characters from the same series.

I actually noticed that her speech reminded me of Hestia (from DanMachi), who also uses boku and kai, have always wondered what was up with that
That's the first anime that made me question the usage of 'boku' tbh. But it sounds cute for hestia tho. XD

How did she start on earth? Poor, no members in her familia. These things may ultimately led to the usage of boku. Boku --> masculine --> Strength

I like the intro music, it feels like im a baby being put to sleep
Maaya Sakamoto is a legend
Ofc, she voiced the character in your pfp and Dona. And both of them are my best girl in their series, so yeah
What are you doing here,onee-chan?
@@Shinobunecromancer I get bored laying around in Master’s shadow all day
You know how to get them clicks
You get my respect
Yuta, What about "How Nyotengu Speaks"? She is from Dead or Alive videogame series
Every time i see your video from some cool anime speaking analysis im excited as i love learning about weird words and dialects to just find out its just for total beginner :(
But.... if you look for next idea, i can see you are man of culture as well (and as im in the middle of 'trying' to read LN) you could do deeper analize of Shinobu from monogatari
Also for sake of channel growth, kimetsu would be great as movie just exloded. Even our god Shinkaisan was talking about it... but to be honest i dont remember any specific pattern
Still monogatari would ve great source for shinobu, oshino and pretty much every character with cool phrases like ii koto demo atta no kai or nandemo shiranai ha yo, shitteru koto dake etc
Also i know dubs suck, but subs? How the heck you translated shiranai mono wa nai sa into Everybody knows your name? :v
Watashi Ains Ooal Gown. Call me Ains.
If you could teach me Osaka Kansai dialect I would definitely toon in often. They sounded coolest when I visited Japan.
It is a game now trying to guess when Yuta is about to segway into promoting his Japanese classes
9:11 I see, it's so popular back then, that is why the ending is filled with omedetou...rather than fanta orange
Sakamoto is the jitsuryokuha-seiyuu that never shines on the stage but always makes every show she plays shine
Besides Shinobu and Echidna were all played by Sakamoto
*Extraño tu canal en español*
On the topic of when she kinda breaks her character i will argue the intonation of the voice conveys that she is like desperate and the subs kinda convey that too so i don't think the meaning is lost.
Can you do Tsukasa from Tonikawa please? Allegedly she’s immortal
Can you make one video of these but related to DIO from JoJo. I got the impression that Koyasu speaks in a script that it might sound a bit more difficult than the other characters from the same series.
Please make a video on how Google translate speaks Japanese.
2:25 what anime?
I have recently noticed that apparently monogatari is a harem anime who knew
in my mind i conect the word "nee" to when a character wants to make a question to someone...
thanx for this vid.
2:42 Yeah, a harem where you will die within 2 seconds
9:36 I'd say Echidna knowing a lot of things is kinda the point of her character... She is the witch of greed, she is greedy for knowledge...
3:51 it sounds like "ga"
I can't still wrap my head around the "Oira" that Paimon from Genshin Impact uses
