Did she ever really practice her accent or what?

[edit]
And man... watching a few video's makes me really wonder about her mental health...

I was so disappointed when I found out Ken was a fake. I watched the video that Kyle is talking about, the one where he meets his brother. And saw that not old was Ken Tanaka not really Japanese raised, but he is also a unskilled video editor.

I'm still a subscriber of both, Ken and Emily.
All their videos are interesting. Love them both.

But I looked up David Ury on the inter webz, and realized he actually did study in Japan, at Tokyo University, and speaks fluent Japanese. But... he just wasn't raised in Japan like he says.

He's an amazing actor.

Agreed. She's the essence of "camerawhore."

That's the whole point of her video style sir. To come off as a cocky as possible.

I find it hilarious.

I try not to judge people's accent that much because mine is not perfect either. However, she flaunts her accent as if it's a gift from God, and that bothers me a bit. Still, I like to think I'm above "ZOMG HER ACCENT IS NOT PERFECT."

She does have good chops for someone who (I think) had never been to Japan before she went over there to become a softcore porn actress or whatever you call what she's doing (AV actress, bikini model, what?). I haven't really looked into what she does because I don't care that much. It's just that on certain websites I frequent, people talk about her.

Nathan As I said, to each his own. But I definltely don't enjoy watching people act cocky on camera. I'm cocky enough as it is (reference my AMAZING POSTING here), and I don't need to see more of it from others—I'll look in a mirror and make muscle Ahnold poses for that. :)

The first video was funny. Fua-kin, LOL. Kin is gold in Japanese but fua-kin just sounds amusing. Mods, is there a lower age limit on JF? I was surprised to see my Japanese slang removed. I just meant to raise awareness.

I don't think there's a strict "no profanity" rule on JF. On the relationship board or English board, the few times I've visited I've seen a ton of F-bombs.

I just choose not to use them here, because it doesn't add much to the discussion like it would in discussions about escort services and people that make us angry.

I mean, it seems silly to cuss out how hard kanji are.
