Gratuitous Japanese	comment	Koko de yokeina nihongo o setsumei shite kudasai.ã�“ã�“ã�§ã€Œä½™è¨ˆã�ªæ—¥æœ¬èªžã€�ã‚’èª¬æ˜Žã�—ã�¦ã��ã� ã�•ã�„ ...Nani? As the Anime community is full of foreign fans, translations abound in manga, anime, Fansubs and Scanlations, online slang, and Fanfic for the medium. But that doesn't mean everything gets translated. Sometimes, the terms are hard to translate and are likely familiar to an audience of even casual anime viewers anyway, such as Honorifics, Japanese Sibling Terminology, various pleasantries and exclamations. Sometimes an English dub will leave Japanese in because the mouth flaps won't fit any reasonable English translation. Words like "baka" and using "Kami" as synonymous with "God," leading to "Oh, thank Kami(-sama)!" start feeling perhaps a bit shoe-horned in for flavor. And then there are authors who dump entire sentences (or more) in Japanese into their text in...well, a language that isn't Japanese. While some may provide footnotes or glossaries for the convenience, the sudden transition to a block of Japanese is still jarring for many readers. Fansubs also have a bad habit of adding gratuitous Japanese, along with a footnote with a translation. It's pervasive enough that it led to the meme "Just according to keikaku (Translator's note: keikaku means plan)" from a parody of a Death Note fansub. This, however, has led to hypercorrection, leading fansubbers to use inaccurate translations of hard-to-translate terms like "tsundere" that even This Very Wiki will leave untranslated as distinct concepts. Translation is hard. Whether to include honorifics, localize idioms, translate certain special terms, or use translator notes at the top of the screen is a massive debate. Most people tend to be united in their dislike for finding walls of Japanese text in the middle of a translation, but smaller "flavor bits" are usually better received. It becomes really noticeable when it finds its way into fandoms and Fan Fic for media like Harry Potter, which isn't Japanese and has no Japanese characters (usually). TV Tropes itself has had a bit of problem with this trope in the past, leading to rules against naming new tropes after Japanese phrases that aren't necessarily clear to people who speak primarily English (and this is an English site, after all). Gratuitous English is the anime version of this: just like Gratuitous Japanese is Japanese for the sake of it, Gratuitous English is English dropped into the dialog for the sake of it, even if it's horribly mangled. This is a subtrope of Gratuitous Foreign Language and really should be used with extreme care. Often occurs with an Untranslated Title.

The reason for this was because all the animation was done by a Japanese company, but in game it's explained that Max had a Japanese nanny when she was growing up and thus is both bilingual and prone to reverting to Japanese when she's stressed. After the cutscene, both her name and dialog are written in kanji for a couple of lines until she snaps out of it.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_19f510d4	comment	A horrific example of this very nearly destroyed the Improfanfic series Final Fantasy Legacy, and was the very first instance of an Impro part actually being pulled (entirely removed from the series and disregarded by all future authors) to save the story. The original author for the sixth chapter (of what would go on to be a 60+ chapter story) committed multiple sins, including killing off half the characters, throwing a brand-new story into ending mode, and spewing rivers of gratuitous Japanese into a story which, at that point, had used absolutely no Japanese whatsoever. Some of the worst examples:

Gratuitous Japanese / int_29d0306c	comment	In Danganronpa Abridged Thing, this is Sayaka Maizono's stock in trade, and is Played for Laughs. She frequently inserts Japanese words and phrases into her dialogue, often refers to herself as "Maizono-hime". Naegi ends up falling into this when trying to think like she does, and her killer tries to argue that if she was really the one who wrote his name down, she'd have written "-kun" after it. Alter Ego speaks in this manner as well, causing Naegi to complain that "the language is set to 'Maizono'". Kirigiri once asks it to "cut that weeb shit out, please", but it turns out that Fujisaki apparently hard-coded that style of speaking into it. Role reversal in "Rail Whores", an abridged one-shot of Rail Wars!. Takayama, played by Faulerro, the voice actor for Naegi (and countless others) is the one who employs the trope to Sydsnap (Maizono's voice actor)'s character, Sakurai.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_30a5ebfd	comment	The English dub of Naruto never bothers translating the word "jutsu", even though it could easily be rendered as "technique" or something similar. This may be due to "jutsu" sounding ninja-like. (The Viz manga translates it as "art" - for example, "Kage Bunshin no Jutsu" is "Art of the Shadow DoppelgÃ¤nger" in the manga and "Shadow Clone Jutsu" in the anime.) They also refer to their teachers as "sensei", which in real life is used for those in respectable occupations, not just teachers but also doctors and writers (the manga translates this as "master," an example being "Master Kakashi"). If one were to listen, however, using "sensei" gratuitously in an English dub is actually more common than one might think.

The actual dialogue, however, is completely in english except when it's played for laughs. Some examples didn't do the research, like is "Kalasu Angel", a name the creator (initially) thought meant "Angel of Death" but actually meant "Angel of the Crow".

Sometimes it made sense, because a lot of characters were of Japanese descent, but it also manifested when the writer was trying to come up with cool-sounding "alien" names (e.g. kagami/mirror = Kagamirron, the name of a mirror universe). Also, why in the crossover with Choujin Sentai Jetman did the characters keep slipping into Japanese...after an alien used her powers so there was no such thing as a language barrier when the story seems to assume the reader's native langue is English?

Gratuitous Japanese / int_37b7264c	comment	Due to the popularity of Initial D the Toyota Sprinter Trueno is also known as "Hachi-Roku" (eight-six). This is due to the fact that the car's chassis number is (AE86), and it's usually left untranslated by fans. Due to Toyota's way of numbering, this means that the engine bay will fit an A-series engine. Fans of the series will note that the engine used in Takumi's 86 is a 4A-GE (both versions) which means that it is an A-series engine.

However, clearly, the one in the actual game is a moray. Which is not classified as freshwater at all. In fact, the Japanese name is "Utsubo". Which means Moray, meaning that the player guide swapped out a Japanese word for another word that ironically ends up being an incorrect classification.

He's so stereotypical, in fact, that he exclusively speaks fluent Japanese. While the viewers get to see subtitles whenever he speaks (and his dialogue is often quite humorous), it's evident that Steve and his other friends have no clue what he's saying. At one point, Toshi goes into a lengthy monologue in objection to something Steve had asked him (if he owned a camcorder), and Steve responds along the lines of "Wow, that's a lot of words for 'yes'." This is made even stranger by the fact that Toshi's mom and sister both speak fluent, unaccented English and translate for Toshi when they're around. In one episode, Toshi's mom lampshades this by asking her son, "Why do you only speak in Japanese? I can't even understand you. I don't even speak Japanese!" One episode had a scene where Steve is talking to Toshi on the phone. After a few seconds, confused Steve admits that he doesn't understand what he's saying. The show finally addresses the situation when the four boys get into an argument and Snot screams "LEARN ENGLISH!", causing Toshi to retort with his only English line: "EAT. MY. BOWLS!"

Gratuitous Japanese / int_727bb60d	comment	Sakura, the Cat Girl student in The Official Fanfiction University of Redwall, is a stereotypical Japanophile. She intersperses her speech with Japanese words, and has also dropped into Japanese Ranguage on at least one occasion. Not always the right word; she once referred to Nagru's ermine Dirgecallers as "neko-chan". It's not clear whether she just didn't know the word for ermine or if she actually thought they were kittens - she's not particularly bright, so it could be either. She later runs into Agent Drake, who is from a Japanese-speaking continuum and represents an author that has done her research. Eventually this results in her offering to sell internal organs.

According to his creator, Drift is supposed to be a tribute to the land that birthed Transformers...which is an even bigger backfire because while the toy molds were indeed Japanese, the brand and the characters were of American origin. Drift's toy makes it all the funnier, though, thanks to the addition of gratuitous Japanese on his totally badass plus one sword. This sword is an ancient Cybertronian weapon passed down through the mysterious third faction of Knights Of Cybertron, and the implication is that Drift basically defiled it with the kanji for "peerless" to be more gratuitously Japanese.

The Draconis Combine's ruling house traces their lineage back to Japan back on Earth, explicitly stylizes itself after medieval feudal Japan, with Japanese used as the official court language. Despite years of attempting to impose Japanese on their subjects, the majority of the Combine's population speaks Arabic, English and (for much of its history) Swedish as native languages, thus making some of the compound titles partially justified.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_931b22ff	comment	An RPG Maker game entitled Romancing Walker featured a female ninja named Hayami who used not only Japanese honorifics but Japanese pronouns in an otherwise English-speaking game. Apparently the game was originally Japanese; presumably the honorifics and pronouns left in (all very humble and outdated) were to show her personality or status. For example, Hayami and other ninjas from her clan referred to themselves as "Sessha" instead of "I" or "me", which was common of ninja in feudal Japan and certain media. Hayami also referred to the hero as "Ryle-dono" (the game footnoted "dono" as "sir", which is technically incorrect). Also, several of Hayami's weapons retained their Japanese names, such as the stone-cleaving katana "Iwa Kiri Maru", which translates to something like "rock drill sword". Another more blatant case of this is in the "class" of Hayami, which reads "Kuno Ichi".

Gratuitous Japanese / int_93ef7a8c	comment	In Super Smash Bros. Melee, Marth and Roy speak Japanese in all versions of the game. This may be because Nintendo intended dummy them out for the American release, but the localization team liked them enough to keep them in the game. Most of the characters in Melee actually still had Japanese voice actors - with many of them using English catch phrases ("Mission Comprete!"). Strangely, everyone who actually spoke got an English voice actor in Brawl (including fellow Fire Emblem character Ike, since he had an English voice actor in his own game)... except Marth. Given that he still speaks Japanese in the fourth game, despite Fire Emblem: Shadow Dragon getting an English release in between it and Brawl, it's likely that this has become something of a tradition at this point. However, in Ultimate, Marth and Roy are finally voiced in English outside Japan. All of this only serves to perplex those who consider the in-game inversion; Lucas from Mother 3 has always had English dialogue in Brawl (even in the original Japanese), despite the fact that he's from a game that Western gamers have been fruitlessly clamouring for for years.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_95b62321	comment	Kamen Rider Dragon Knight, a remake of Kamen Rider Ryuki intended for an American audience, kept the "Kamen" untranslated despite the fact that the English name "Masked Rider" is also used in Japan. Producer Steve Wang stated in an interview that he prefers the actual Japanese moniker over the translated form, but admittedly he also wanted to distance Dragon Knight from Saban's early adaptation of Kamen Rider BLACK RX, simply titled Masked Rider. Like "anime" and "manga" mentioned above, Tokusatsu is an example of this. The term means "special effects"note It's a Portmanteau of tokubetsu satsuhin, which literally translates as "special photography", and in Japan it's used to refer to any live-action work that uses SFX extensively, including Star Trek, Doctor Who, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, etc. Western fans typically use the term exclusively in reference to Japanese Henshin Hero shows like Super Sentai, Kamen Rider, the Ultra Series and the like (although some will to stretch the term to include kaiju movies like Godzilla and Gamera).

This actually makes the Gratuitous Japanese more plausible; writing the cats' dialogue in English is just a Translation Convention, so it doesn't matter what language is used.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_9e2f90f4	comment	Virtually all non-official translations of One Piece have left "Nakama" (similar to True Companions) in place of all possible translations. Many, many translations mix-and-match attack names, such as Luffy's "Gomu-Gomu no" almost always being left untranslated but the attack itself ("Fusen" vs. "Balloon") is often either translated or not. "Shichibukai" is kept as a title (ex: Gecko Moria will be called the "Shichibukai Moria". "Shichibukai"'s literal translation is "Seven Military Seas". Official translations use the serviceable term "Seven Warlords of the Sea". "Tenryuubito", or the "Celestial Dragons", constantly remain untranslated. Though not something you'll find in most subs, certain fans of the series refer to the crew of the main characters (The Straw Hats) as the original term "Mugiwara". The characters "Whitebeard" and "Blackbeard" are also sometimes referred to as "Shirohige" and "Kurohige" for some unfathomable reason. Also the three admirals. Aokiji, Kizaru and Akainu are their titles, not their real names. Usually it would be more fitting to translate their titles to "Blue Pheasant, Yellow Monkey and Red Dog" and keep their names Kuzan, Borsalino and Sakazuki as the original. However, no translations (including the official ones) apparently bother to do that. Because One Piece makes so much use of Red Baron nicknames, some people refuse to translate them as if they were actual names. Hancock's royal title of "Hebihime" (snake princess) is also left untranslated so many times. Shanks, too, had his title of "Akagami" (red hair) kept untouched (unless if it's in official works, where he's normally referred to as "Red-haired Shanks").

Gratuitous Japanese / int_a17cdf73	comment	In the Onechanbara games, Kagura is fond of spouting one-liners in Gratuitous English. As a nod to this, the English dub of Onechanbara Z2 Chaos has her do the same thing but in Japanese. Zig-zagged in the game's theme song, "Ichiban Wa Me". The song is almost completely in English, save for the title and another lyric late in the song that goes "Ichiban wa boku-tachi", and since it's a Japanese game, it's technically the English that should be gratuitous and not the other way around... except that the singer and writer are both native English speakers. And then there's the title itself. It's kind of a Mind Screw.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_a7c9f8e9	comment	The first edition of Legend of the Five Rings uses some really gratuitous Japanese in skill names. Examples: "Kagaku" instead of "Alchemy" or all weapon skill names in Way of the Lion, even if Western names were given in the rulebook earlier. Hilariously, the game also includes a few sample Japanese phrases to use to sound badass in combat including, "I'll tear you in half!" The catch? That phrase is lifted directly from the subversive, parody travel guide Wicked Japanese in its section of things for women to say to rebuff unwanted advances, and is feminine in tone thanks to the "wa" at the end. One of the most infamous mistakes among the fandom is that many early cards misued the particle no by not realising Japanese sentences often seem reversed if they're translated into English word-for-word. So while no is akin to 's it acts more like of, resulting in, say, the ancestral spirit (Shiryo) of a character named Bayushi being rendered as "Shiryo no Bayushi." Somebody eventually got around to learning Japanese grammar, and later releases corrected these errors, releasing cards such as "Ichido no Shiryo." Same thing happened with onis, who in this universe are created when someone sacrifices their name to an evil spirit of Jigoku (Hell). Early editions had "Oni no [character]," later sets, "[character] no Oni."

This was most likely because the translated names would have overlapped with the names of Tidus's swords, with the bonus of fitting with his "samurai" theme. The attacks of Monster Arena boss Ironclad are untranslated romaji in the English version: "Reppageki" (Buster Attack), "Bushinzan" (Martial God Slash) and "Shinryuudan" (Divine Dragon Slice). In Final Fantasy X-2 International + Last Mission, which uses the American voice-actors, occasionally Yuna will use badly-pronounced Japanese words during combat. In Final Fantasy XIV, the Samurai's abilities all have Japanese names. This may be because the Japanese version itself is an example of this trope, with all the Samurai abilities written entirely in Kanji.

The characters constantly use random Japanese and very incorrectly, which causes Fridge Logic because they're supposedly Japanese in the first place. We get memetic lines such as "I'm very arigatoful". Luckily as the series went on it became more obvious that it's a Stealth Parody so it seems the makers are making fun of people who pepper their language with random Japanese.

"Suburashi chin chin mono! Kintama no kame aru!" "Taisetsu na mono protect my balls!" Another example is the Okama game platform. A bit of a hidden joke, as not many viewers would know okama means something like "homo" or "tranny". And in the episode "Over Logging", in which we find out that Stan's dad has a fetish for Japanese girls puking in each other's mouths (among other perversions), said porn features "dialogue" along the lines of "kawaii deshou" and "watashi wa * barf* daisuki..." During the Black Friday arc, anything involving Sony is filled with this, including an Anime Theme Song for Princess Kenny.note In real life, however, Sony's president, Kaz Hirai, is fluent in English and speaks it with an American accent. You might know him as the guy who started a meme in 2006 by saying, "599 US dollars." And from the episode "Mecha Streisand", we have: "Babura Babura Ichiban Kiraina Hito! Babura Babura Hana ga Okii!" Also Chinpokomon, as chinpoko is a Japanese word for penis.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_f31d7d98	comment	Similar to Toshi, Lin-Lin in Drawn Together, a Captain Ersatz of Pikachu he speaks only in (fake) Japanese with subtitles. The reason of this is explain in one episode though. Curiously everyone seems to understand him.

Gratuitous Japanese / int_f367511c	comment	In Yu-Gi-Oh!, all of the Raigeki cards (Raigeki, Raigeki Break, Crystal Raigeki and others) are called Raigeki in every language... except in Japanese, where it's called ã‚µãƒ³ãƒ€ãƒ¼ (Thunder, written in katakana), making it a rare case of both Gratuitous Japanese AND Gratuitous English. This was because in the early days of the card game, the TCG would use a Japanese name if the Japanese used an English name, so you also had Hinotama (Fireball) or, infamously, Fushioh Richie (Nosferatu Lich).

Gratuitous Japanese / int_f39855e3	comment	PokÃ©mon Trading Card Game: Every single Mega Evolution card does this. One example: Mega Tyranitar's card has gratuitous katakana in the artwork. You might think it's a remnant from the Japanese version of the card, except that the original Japanese art had the same word in English. Really bizarre that they would redraw it to use katakana for the English version, considering that there's nothing particularly "Japanese" about Tyranitar, and the original English text wasn't even Engrish...

Gratuitous Japanese / int_f67a0d24	comment	In season 2, episode 10 of Genshiken, when Kousaka introduces himself (in Japanese) to the American Angela, who had been speaking English up to that point, she responds in kind and introduces herself to him back in Japanese (or attempts to, at least). In the dub of the episode, this is retained, despite the fact that Kousaka is now speaking English. This is especially jarring, as the dub had been doing everything in its power to write around the absence of a language barrier that was present in the sub (and will continue to do so all the way through the next episode).

Gratuitous Japanese / int_faf84cd	comment	Yukie in Vampire: The Masquerade - Bloodlines randomly inserts Japanese words into her dialogue, such as "Arigatou godaimasu" ("Thank you very much"). She also pronounces Los Angeles as "Rosu Angeresu", despite not having any trouble differentiating between L and R at any other point. Her pronunciation of "Los Angeles" is also completely different from how Japanese normally pronounce it (Rosanzerusu).

These lines are meant to be stock lines that would be said if the characters were implemented in the game. This includes introduction, fatigue recovery, internal affairs or critical hit lines and sometimes even library descriptions and kiwame letters.
