When a character is known to speak in one dialect or accent, but under certain situations their accent slips. Occasionally this is used as a reason to explain an actor's poor ability at keeping an accent, however it's usually to indicate the person is either: Impersonating someone else. A speaker who speaks the "standard" accent of a language due to assimilation, but isn't actually how they speak natively. People who watch or listen to media featuring a lot of accents from places other than their native region can adopt the various accents and may switch them depending on their moods. This is different from Ooh, Me Accent's Slipping in that it's an in-universe trope. Instead of the voice actor or actor accidentally reverting accent due to being unable to hold their fake one, the character canonically slips their accent, and tends to have some narrative significance instead of being something that just happens. When a spy character who has been faking an accent permanently reverts to their real accent, that's an Accent Relapse. |

In the Like a Dragon series, Goro Majima normally speaks with a very exaggerated Kansai accent, which complements his bombastic and erratic personality. When he gets serious, however, his accent becomes much softer, and he even begins using words from Tokyo-ben instead of their common Kansai replacements. This is a big clue that Majima isn't actually from Osaka, and that his "Mad Dog" image is a façade. He gets called out on this during a flashback in Yakuza 4.note It's actually a bit of Serendipity Writes the Plot, as originally Majima's voice actor, Hidenari Ugaki, couldn't convincingly pull a Kansai accent, until the directors realized that Majima's character worked better because of it. | |

WandaVision: As the show is largely set inside a reality based on American sitcoms Wanda Maximoff watched as a child, she spends most of the series speaking with Elizabeth Olsen's normal accent, rather than the Sokovian accent she had in her first four movie appearances. That is, until episode 3, when she mentions her late brother Pietro to Monica Rambeau, at which point then the accent comes back. This becomes even more apparent when she temporarily reenters the real world to confront Tyler Hayward, and her Sokovian accent is on full display, and she flips straight back to her American accent upon returning to the Hex. | |

In the second episode of Threshold, the crew interrogates the pilot of a passenger jet that was flying close to the ship when the alien signal was broadcast. During the interrogation, the pilot pronounces a word one way before being asked a question on the incident and a different way after being asked the question. Away from the interrogation, Ramsey says that this is a likely indicator that the pilot is hiding something since people tend to slip back into their native accents when stressed. It turns out the pilot was flying drunk that night and wasn't affected by the alien signal. | |

During a chat with Mad Moxxi in Borderlands 2, she recounts her past history as a member of the Hodunk bandit clan. She gets so worked up, that she slips out of her seductress voice, and into the same thick, hillbilly accent the rest of the Hodunks speak in (including Scooter and Ellie, her children). She quickly catches herself, resumes her regular way of speaking, and asks you not to tell anyone. | |

Anna in Inventing Anna affects a ridiculous over the top "German" accent.note Her real accent, at least as of 2021, is much more subdued. One guy detects "a hint of Russkie" in it, which makes her boyfriend suspicious enough to secretly have her passport checked. | |

Reeve Tuesti of Final Fantasy VII usually speaks with a Kanto accent (in Japanese - it's the region Tokyo's in, so it's seen as a "neutral" accent) or a Standard American accent (in English). When piloting the robotic party member Cait Sith, he uses his native accent - Kansai in the Japanese version, Scottish in the English version. At one point, while dealing with an impending Earth-Shattering Kaboom, he mixes the two up. Cait Sith switches to the "standard" accent, while Reeve uses the Kansai/Scottish one. He's promptly identified as The Mole that Shinra's been having trouble with and arrested. | |

In The Order of the Stick a character is killed and resurrected as a vampire, and the vampire must adopt the victim's mannerisms in order to convince the victim's friends that it's still the same person. It struggles with the victim's accent (describing it as "ridiculous") and occasionally slips up while trying to mimic it, but no-one except Belkar suspect anything is amiss until the vampire reveals its true motives. | |

A non-regional accent version, but played very straight in Persona 4. Naoto Shirogane, the so-called 'Detective Prince', is a stoic teenage boy who is always serious, polite and correct. Starting from when 'he' meets his Shadow, Naoto's voice has a habit of sliding into its true tone - a softer female register - when angered, embarrassed or otherwise caught off-guard. This is in keeping with her maintaining a masculine façade that forms an integral part of her character - Naoto believes that the police service is a man's world where women don't belong. | |

Wax and Wayne: How Wayne spots the impostor in Shadows of Self. Wayne is a Master of Disguise with particular expertise in accents, and spends a lot of time in the company of immortal shapeshifting kandra MeLaan. The impostor, also a kandra, says her "a"s the same way as MeLaan. Wayne weaponizes it in The Bands of Mourning as part of a Kansas City Shuffle. He wants a ride to another part of the city, and disguises himself as a rich lord hailing a gondolier. By behaving suspiciously, and deliberately letting his accent slip from lordly to thuggish, the gondolier thinks it's a setup for a robbery. The gondolier makes an excuse and drops him off in the middle of the ride—exactly where Wayne wanted to go, and without paying. |

In The Punisher MAX arc "Kitchen Irish", the story revolves around a group of criminals who all have a connection to a recently deceased Irish Mob boss who has sent them each a piece of a map that will show where he hid the riches he amassed over his life. The associate of one of them, Michael Morrison, slips into his natural Irish accent when his boss Finn Cooley surprises him after having taped on his multilated face after losing a mask designed to keep it on. Michael asks if it'll slip, and Finn snarks "You mean like your accent?" Much later, after multiple clashes with each other and The Punisher, the criminals all gather in a bar to put together their pieces of the map. After they see where the treasure is, they all get ready to kill each other. Michael smashes his drink on the bar counter, and in a heavily accented speech tells them that they don't need to keep killing each other, and they don't need to bring the horror of The Troubles to the States. They all put their guns away. | |

Ain't No Grave: As a young man, Steve worked hard to get rid of his Brooklyn-Irish accent because he was tired of people making fun of him for it in art school. The USO gave him elocution lessons to get rid of it the rest of the way, and as a result, he can now sound like a forties radio announcer (likely with a Mid-Atlantic accent) at will. Whenever he talks about Bucky, he lapses into a distinctly vintage-sounding Brooklyn accent. It reminds Daredevil of his late father. | |

M*A*S*H, episode "Dear Comrade": Kwang, a spy for the Korean People's Army, masks his perfect fluency in English with broken Korean Engrish. Over the course of the episode, he becomes fond of a couple of the personnel on the base, and before going back to his division he decides to have a drink with them. Heavily inebriated, he declares that "When all is said and done, you're not such bad fellows!" and B. J. points out that the drunker Kwang gets, the better his English becomes. Kwang hesitates before replying that "it must be the whiskey", and pours himself another drink. | |

Danganronpa: In the Danganronpa: Trigger Happy Havoc English localization, Celestia has an affected French accent, which slips away when she's angry. Teruteru Hanamura from Danganronpa 2: Goodbye Despair slips into his natural accent (rural Japanese in the original, Cajun in the English version) when he's under extreme stress. It's so thick that Monomi has to act as his translator. |

The Wheel of Time: Ordeith (a.k.a. Padan Fain, a.k.a. Jeraal Mordeth) continually slips from one accent to another mid-sentence, which is noted by several people to whom he plays Treacherous Advisor. He gets it from being a Shadow-touched madman who's also possessed by an ancient ghost; the people who uncomfortably ignore how totally bonkers he is have no such excuse. Liandrin affects noble speech patterns and mannerisms out of envy but slips back to her native speech in stressful moments. |

That is, until she accidentally gets splashed with hot water and her voice suddenly sounds American. Sure enough, she's the inspector, faking an English accent to boot. | |

Wayne weaponizes it in The Bands of Mourning as part of a Kansas City Shuffle. He wants a ride to another part of the city, and disguises himself as a rich lord hailing a gondolier. By behaving suspiciously, and deliberately letting his accent slip from lordly to thuggish, the gondolier thinks it's a setup for a robbery. The gondolier makes an excuse and drops him off in the middle of the ride—exactly where Wayne wanted to go, and without paying. | |

In the Japanese version of The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time, the Zora, Kokiri, and Goron all have Verbal Tics. Zora end their sentences with "zora" while Goron end theirs with "goro". Kokiri have "jora" as their tic however they don't actually use it in-game. Pre-release screenshots show that they once used it constantly, however in the final product it's only referenced once. Saria gets excited when you show her the Keaton mask and accidentally slips into the Kokiri accent, causing her to become embarrassed. | |

Critical Role: The comically Texan Half-Orc Fjord speaks with a British accent while dreaming or in some moments after he wakes up. This is because Fjord's natural accent is British and he adopted the Southern accent of his mentor as a way to remember him after he was lost at sea. He later does a full Accent Relapse after he decides to come clean with the group, to the surprise of everyone but Jester, who knew him before he started using the accent, and Caduceus, who is too mellow to really care. | |

"Rossini" talks in Italian-esque accent, until the Master confronts him with the fact that his real name is Lew Russell. Caught by surprise by this, a panicking Russell spits out his next lines in what is obviously his natural London accent. In "Tooth and Claw", the Tenth Doctor puts on a Scottish accent while trying to pass as a native of the Scottish highlands. Later, whilst being chased by the monster of the episode, he forgets to keep using the accent and is caught by Queen Victoria. |

During the fight with Cortex (A heavily altered version of one of Jamie Madrox's dupes, whom she's already violently angry with) she gets so mad, she starts "getting her Irish up". Similarly, Rahne is said in the prequel series "Madrox" to only break out the Funetik Aksent when irritated or annoyed. The fact she's always speaking in it would suggest she's always annoyed, which (given the events that occur in X-Factor) wouldn't be too surprising. |

This is inverted in The Mote in God's Eye. One character (the Chief Engineer, no less) usually speaks with an exaggerated Scottish accent, and like all inhabitants of 'New Caledonia' places great emphasis on his proud Scottish heritage, despite this being the far future when there isn't much left of the old cultural distinctions. Another character remarks that he loses the accent when he gets excited, which he loudly declares a lie—without using the accent. | |

Buffy the Vampire Slayer: In "Band Candy" a spell reverts the adults of Sunnydale back to their teenage years. Giles, who usually speaks with a refined Received Pronunciation accent, lapses back to the lower-class accent of his deliquent youth. Later in the episode the spell begins to wear off and his accent shifts back to RP when he remembers a piece of exposition about the villain of the week. Spike slips a few times into his original Received Pronunciation accent, rather than the cockney one he affects after regaining his soul. |

Ace Attorney: In "Turnabout Bigtop" when you meet the defendant, a very flamboyant and vain circus performer named Maximillion Galactica, he doesn't really grasp that he's been arrested and is on trial for murder. Once you seriously spell it out for him, he begins frantically speaking in a country bumpkin accent, revealing himself to be a hillbilly whose actual name is Billy Bob Johns. After he calms down, he speaks normally again. The Great Ace Attorney Chronicles: As a Shakespearean actor, William Shamspeare constantly speaks this way, but he falters and speaks normally whenever he's startled or angered during his testimony; he eventually drops the act completely once he's revealed as Duncan Ross's killer. |

Robin from How I Met Your Mother acts "Super Canadian" when drunk, which includes slipping into a Canadian accent. | |

Breaking Bad: Most of the time, the Chilean Gustavo Fring speaks in an accented but very proper and precise manner. However, when he shows what's Beneath the Mask, his Chilean accent gets more pronounced and he drops in casual foreign slang. | |

Marika Tachibana from Nisekoi usually speaks very formally to come across as more refined, but she'll slip back into her native dialect (Tosa dialect in the manga, but Fukuoka dialect in the anime) whenever she gets flustered or angry. | |

Avenue 5: Captain Ryan Clarke has an authoritative American accent when on duty as a figurehead captain of a starship. When he slips up, or when he's off the clock, he speaks in a rather lower-class English accent with a noticeably more nasal voice. He occasionally gets in trouble when people notice that he's started speaking differently. | |

There's More Magic Out There: Juleka actually has the same pirate speech as her mother Anarka, though she covers it up out of embarrassment. She tends to slip into it when she's alone at home, which was how Sabrina found out. In chapter 53, she ends up eating overaged fae food, which made her act like she was on drugs and causes her to slip into her normal accent. | |

The Battle Chatelaine sisters from Pokémon X and Y (and later Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire) slip into the Hakata dialect when excited. The English-language version translated this by having them slip into thick Irish accents. | |

Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines: The nightclub owner Venus Dare usually speaks with a plummy English accent, but drops it briefly in a moment of Tranquil Fury. Tellingly, the Mafiya boss Boris refers to her as "the American bitch". | |
