Phrases you get sick of hearing.

BakaCrisis · (#1 (**permalink**))

I thought this might be an interesting thread to make. What are some phrases that you hear in anime that just get used over and over again so much that you're sick of hearing it, whether it be just something one character uses a lot or something that just gets used over and over again in a particular genre? For me it would have to be everytime I hear Natsumi from Keroro Gunso say Bokae Kaeru to Keroro, or Stupid Frog if you want an English translation. Do I really need to hear that every single episode? Ok... Keroro can do some stupid stuff and we already know you think he's stupid. We get the idea. If I somehow actually counted from episode 1 to the current fansubbed episode how many times I've heard that, I bet it would be near the triple digits.

ALSO!

This can get on my nerves, it happens in a lot of anime but I get sick of it, lovers repeating each others names:

Scenes like:
"...Tamahome"

- Miaka
"...Miaka"

- Tamahome
"Tamahome"

- Miaka
"Miaka"

- Tamahome
"Tamahome!!"

- Miaka
"Miaka!!!"

- Tamahome

Stop it!!!!

a-haha a-haha a-hahaha (pause)
a-haha a-haha a-hahaha (pause)

which continues on for the whole scene.

When I say I don't want kids, people always look at me in that 'awwwww' way and say, 'You'll change your mind when your older.'

It's not in anime, but hey, it's a phrase!

Ones I don't like in anime though, is when they constantly repeat KAWAIIIIIIII too much, much like the OMFGZ IM AZN people at my school.

the one that really annoyed me was the one in rosario + vampire where for like five minutes the main characters were like repeating their names over and over again at each other....

Well it is a very common Japanese phrase. Everyday as I get ready to leave for work my fiance says "oshigoto ganbatte" which roughly translates to "at work do your best". "Ganbatte" can be translated at "don't give up" as well; it is a versatile word that doesn't really have an English equivalent.
