I will new be referring to Demon Slayer as _KILL ZOMBIS_
Why am I still here just to suffer. :(

kill Zombi 😂 for demon slayer.
Imo you should do this again with multiple choice to see what options sounds most natural to her as a Japanese person with English as a second language. It’ll show how language syntax and interpretation of structure is different.
It's pretty much impossible to get an exact title right so yeah it'd be a bit more fair.
Getting an english title and having to figure out which anime it is would also be good
Or at least seeing the english title and figuring out which anime it is
Very good idea.
@@BigDBrian Well, someone else already did the whole "having Japanese people guess the anime by it's English title" idea. I think his channel is called "The Japanese Man Yuta".
Yeah, this sounds so much more fun to me!
It's nice to hear Joey speaking Japanese once in a while - and funny how he just has nearly no Japanese accent when he switches back to English! xD
That's bilingual for ya
That's crazy bro. I wonder how long since he lived in Japan
@@NukeRadius 5-7 years but he has been speaking japanese his whole life
@@fanyamvs9601 yep. And also for any other bilingual people whats the question uve personally found the weirdest? Cus some people do ask weird questions
@@pgmr6304 huh... I'm 16, never went to any other country before and I mean, being bilingual isn't that special, here in Malaysia
Supposedly, with Malay as the official language, and English being implemented greatly in the education system, most should know Malay and English in varying degrees of fluency, and Chinese and Indian have another one in their hands, being their native language...
And due to religion, some Malay people further studying about the Arabic language
But yeah, some people consider English as hard but it's quite easy for me, there's definitely a pattern of people who live in urban are being more fluent in English than those who lives in rural and one of the reasons being media consumption
Now, to answer your question, there actually isn't any lol...
Most of the questions would be: How is your vocabulary is so good and I'll usually just answer that I watch English movies, read book in English, basically media consumption
I think that this might be relatable for non-English speaking country lol
Do share your own experience on that matter tho
"You watch anime? which ones have you watched?"
"Oh, just "KILL ZOMBIS"" and "Wars for people"
'Wars for people' fit the theme a little too well😂
Wars for People is legit banger
I feel so accomplished being able to know which those 2 ment
delicious game
@free sexy albums in my channel bro what💀
"Wars for the people" ironically sounds more fitting than "Attack ON Titan" especially after what happened during the 4th season.
Dude get a life, touch some grass!
IT'S YOU AGAIN lol
U aren't wrong
Yes and idk why people hate you
@@miljan1399 because he's everywhere
6:56 Fun fact! "Silent Voice" in Russia was localized as "Форма Голоса" which translates into *drumroll* "Shape of Voice" :D

He eigo jouzu-ed her LOL
@@1337hacks That's an exception in the whole video 😂
I hope Joey sees this comment 🤣🤣
"The Town Where Only I Am Missing" is a much cooler title then Erased.
Isn't it also called "a town without me"
It's a mouth full and hard to be called/remembered. So yeah. No way that's gonna happen.
@@lytuy7952 Not necessarily unless we consider 5 words to be the limit. The English title for Kimi no Iru Machi was the literal translation of ‘A Town Where You Live’ and that has been a more successful franchise than Boku Dake ga Inai Machi even if the anime adaptation was a pile of garbage.
There’re also exceptions where Hataruku Maou-sama!! which is catchy on its own, turned into the wordy “The Devil is a part timer”.
They almost directly translated it to that for the German manga. I mean Erased kind of makes sense too but only if you know the story.
I'm gonna disagree
To be fair to Kyasumin, I didn't even remember Detective Conan wasn't actually called Detective Conan so as a consumer of anime with English language localization, I would have got it wrong too. That one really was a trick question. She should get points just for being on the same silly wave lengths as whoever thought "Case Closed" was a good alternative.
I watched it as a kid and I even forgot that it wasn't Detective Conan, lol
@@yu_nuen9 I knew case closed as detective conan, samurai x as rurouni kenshin, I have heard Boku no Hero Academia more often than MY hero, I recognize Kimi no Na Wa more... A LOT of these are more recognizable in the japanese name than english, even in america. And yes, Attack on Titan never made much sense given the story line...
The "Conan" part conflicts with Conan the Barbarian. I suppose we could've used "Detective Kudo" instead.
@@Vertraic I'd completely forgotten about Samurai X and was thinking of the later localized title "Rurouni Kenshin: Wandering Samurai".
@@CarbonRollerCaco Thanks for reminding me of that, I was thinking of Arthur Conan Doyle and his trigger-happy estate (which is the reason the "Sherlock Holmes" in the Daigyakuten Saiban games became Herlock Sholmes, which is the name of the pastiched Holmes by Maurice Leblanc).
She‘s absolutely adorable. This was so nice to watch. Her answers made me smile :)

Kyasumin is a great guest! Her voice is so pretty, and her manners are adorable. She has such a pleasant smile, I can't but smile back.
Oh shit. I still remember Joey talking about how he wanted to visit his japanese cousin who lives very close to him and who he hasn't seen for over a year on Trash Taste. The Trash Taste lore continues to expand
This means that the anime man channel's lore is canon
@@filippo_mosti5424 Always has been.
And what he need to do is bring her to the trash taste
I think there is no actual "lore" for the trash taste podcast. We outsiders and strangers are just learning about the lives of 3 funny men who live in Japan.
@@nathanielshawtheoverclocke7045 still awesome
Joey’s cousin is way better at translating things than whoever translated arcade games
What is a chin moustache and are you an alt account of, “just some guy without a moustache”?
@@otenny7345 I want to know too!!
@@otenny7345 If you look at the pfp, you will see what a chin mustache is.

@@OmniscientWarrior oh wow. I never knew a man could grow a chin moustache and this man must know the shadow clone jutsu if there are more than just 2 them
Lame!! You are trying to copy the other guys hard work. You are 🗑
3:57 The french title of るろうに剣心 is "Kenshin le vagabond" which translates to "Kenshin the wanderer".
I think it's quite close from the original meaning
Thats so much better condidering Kenshin technically isnt a samurai
"vagabundo" means lazy person who never does anything in portuguese.
@@guscfer157 Oh, really? That's very interesting... It does not carry the same meaning in french. I wonder how we got two different meanings from the same latin word 'vagabundus'...
@@loryon In italian "vagabondo" means: homeless, wanderer but also lazy person (but this one only in dialects)
In the U.S, Samurai X is the title of the movies, while Rurouni Kenshin was the anime show that takes place after the movies.
Wanna see Joey’s grandma. Ask her what she thinks of her comedian grandchild
Yeah that'd be great to unveil the curtains.
I think he already did a video with her, it's really really old though
@@somethingsomethingsomeones661 I think that was with his mom. She wore a mask I think?
@@somethingsomethingsomeones661 yes there is a video featuring his grandma. I just forgot what the topic was
Let's not forget music star with the hit iTunes song "Too Much Volcano."
Who else didn’t know Samurai X was another name for Rouroni Kenshin? wow it’s interesting how differently things get translated.
this one I actually didnt know. Even the localized volumes at my library were just called, "Rurouni Kenshin"
same its i've always just heard or used a shortened "Kenshin"
Luckily rouroni kenshin is called Samurai X here so i know instantly, and instead, i can't figure or remember ghost in the shell title until he said shell and seeing the kanji title again
Yeah samurai x is weird. I've heard it before online but it's never really advertised as that. It's always rurouni kenshin
I usually have absolutely no clue about the English titles. I usually translate the titles in my head and just go on my merry way, then my world view is shattered once I see the actual titles.
Case Closed is actually called Detective Conan here in Germany so imagine how confusing it was to try to find that anime online and first having to figure out that it was Case Closed in English for some reason.
It seems like it was actually literally translated for most languages. If I had to make a guess as to why English in particular didn't get a direct translation, it's probably because of Conan being a direct reference to Conan Doyle. The only other reason I can think of was that they wanted a more catchy title because the dub was originally going to be for kids, which was seemingly changed late enough that the DVD publisher and VIZ Media both used censored names for Gin and Vodka, being referred to as Kaspar and Melkior instead.
@@PercyPanleo I’d say it’s both a mix of copyright issues with the estate of Ser Arthur Conan Doyle, as well as a copyright issue with the show Conan featuring it’s talk show host, Conan O’Brian. Ultimately if they went with the title in the US, there would have effectively been a potential small multitude of litigation risk factors if either of those caught wind of it and felt it encroached upon their shtick.
They changed the name because there was a popular film called Conan the Barbarian in the 80’s. It had a theme song and I think a few sequels. It would often play on reruns on tv and even though most ppl haven’t seen it, we’ve all heard of it and it is the first thing most Americans think of when we hear the name Conan.
Sadly, most Americans wouldn’t know who Conan Doyle was, and a few know Conan O Brian.
The official translation sucks that's why i read the unofficial instead of official because the one who translated the unofficial know japanese more than the official
In New Zealand it’s officially called “detective Conan” in English. That’s what it says as the title on Netflix.
Alternate title: Joey mentally tortures his cousin for 20 minutes
The best part is when Joey is like “yea that’s really clever and a good name but YOURE WRONG ❌”
So 90 percent of the video?
Sore wa chigau yo!
He enjoyed trolling his cousin lol 😆😈

“Eigo jouzu.”
YES!!! THAT’S HOW IT FEEEELLSSS!!!
relatable 🤣
I mean I do feel looked down upon by a nihongo jozu but they still have all the right for nihongo jozu because ego jozu and its equivalent for any other language... it's kind of a norm that everyone tries at English to where sucky English is completely understood as it it was normal English
Says a lot about our modern English lol
loki moment
He just had to do it to her
Yes! this is so refreshing
I could listen to our boy speak Japanese all day!!
my favorite is how his English slowly turns into Engirish over time, the more he speacks Japanese
Fun fact: official Russian translation of Koe No Koaachi(Форма голоса) can be translated as Shape of voice in English.
Similar in Polish, except the title ('Kształt twojego głosu') translates to 'the shape of your voice,' which I think sounds a lot nicer than the literal translation ngl.
it's kinda interesting how russian goes with the direct translations quite often. like, Kiki's delivery service is Ведьмина служба доставки, which is indeed Witch's delivery service! Even Erased has a direct literal translation!
Same thing in Italian, in fact the title is "la forma della voce", that's a direct translation of "the shape of voice"
@@remramen Even if it sounds a little scuffed but if you do it that way in English you get messes like "the testiment of sister new devil" which makes no sense
@@jacobstall1588 That was the first one I thought of when I saw this video. I prefer to translate it as "The Testament of My New Devil Sister" because the official English title is so bad, though a less direct translation might be even better.
“Who is your favorite”
“Shinobu”
“Oh, same as dad”
Kyasumin’s dad’s a man of culture.
lmao
Fax
Absolutely. Shes my fav too
We need a part 2 of this.
Agreed.
Fun fact: the movie "A Silent Voice" begins with the title THE SHAPE OF VOICE
The problem with Shape of Voice is that it doesn’t really make sense in English despite being more literally translated.
I honestly like 'The Shape of Voice' more. Sounds more heartily poetic to me than A Silent Voice, though that title's good as well
Polish translation is "Kształt twojego głosu" and that translated into english is "The shape of your voice"
@@robertstankowski8897 polish >>> english then idc if its complicated
@@andrewli6606 wdym
"Shape of A Voice" that's all you need to add to make it common grammar
A Voice's Shape
Either way you dont need a new meaning in a localized title
If anything a direct translation that makes no sense would be better if not no translation
Because bruh
It's from a diff country in the first place
When English movies get localized in hindi everyone still the english name because like even if the translation is good what's the point a title is a title it's like how you dont translate peoples names when they move abroad they literally are called a certain sound.
"Soma's War" would make it sound like a historical drama.
It's actually Food Wars of Soma if you directly translate it, but Food Wars is also an acceptable English title lol
Now with realist hero being an anime that does actually happen.
Your cousins reaction to the English names was so adorably priceless! Kill Zombi is the new title of Demon Slayer!
Aki - Joey! Have you seen my yes/no prop?
Joey - X (nahhhh)
lmfaooooo😭😭😭💀
Why Japan?!
"when it speaks" is a nice horror title, someone should write a story about that.
I feel like there has to be like an 80s horror film with that name
I like to assume Higurashi's english title is "When Cicadas Cry" instead of "When They Cry". Gives it a more horror/mystery vibes.
She’s extremely pretty, looks like a great person, and your relationship is awesome, love the content you guys!
🤓🤓
get in line brother
man, Kill Zombis was such a banger series, especially with the recent movie "Kill Zombis on a never ending subway". I can't wait for the season 2 adaptation of the Kill Zombis franchise!!!
(author's note: I don't mean any disrespect to Joey's awesome cousin, she was very entertaining and I loved the answers she gave. this video made me giggle, so thank you to Joey & Kyasumin for making my day better.)
"never ending subway" dude this one gave me asthma from laughter
Kill Zombis: Ecstatic Province arc
I- uh- Train to Busan? Kill Zombis on a never ending subway is pretty close right?
You know, now that I think about it, "Kill Zombis" (yes, with that exact spelling...mostly for the lulz) could be an interesting idea for a spiritual successor to Demon Slayer.
Basically Demon Slayer...except in the modern age...and it's zombies they're killing/slaying instead of demons.
LMAO 🤣

I LOVE the way Joey says いいえ throughout this video. He’s so proud to say no.
In germany, the official localizated name for "Case Closed" is actually "Detektiv Conan".
Case closed translated would mean "Fall abgeschlossen" which makes absolutely no sense for a title of a TV show so we got the better end of the stick here.
On the other side though, the anime was badly butchered by excessive censorship.
The arab version sadly was heavily censored too, to the point that some episodes stopped making sense
I just call it Detective Conan, have since i first watched in the early 2000s. I don't think I learned it was called Case Closed in English till I was 18 or somewhere around there. My first reaction was 'why?' I only call it Case Closed when other people get confused and that's rare.
Wait what was censored and why?
@@NA-yq4pe an example would be instead of guns they were just pointing fingers

@@richyket661 Dominic torreto
Why??
What's pretty interesting is the fact that while in Germany we are using a lot of the English titles, too, some of the german translation are actually closer to the original than in English. Meitantei Conan ist just 'Detektiv Conan' (Detective Conan), Erased is 'Die Stadt, in der es mich nicht gibt" (The town/city I don't exist in), Rurouni Kenshin is Rurouni Kenshin and so on.
"shokugeki no Soma, Soma being the name of the protagonist"
"So Soma is in the title?"
"No"
had me dying
...
Are you alive then ?
I didn't actually know the Japanese title for Erased but when she wrote 'alone' I immediately knew which anime you guys were talking about so I'm glad you gave her that half point!! XD
came here to comment this lol
Your cousin is so cute! I loved her answers, especially Kill Zombis!
When discussing Conan, at least online, I'll always put in both titles (cause I'm actually used to both) and when put together, 'Case Closed' sounds like a pretty cool Subtitle. Just say it out loud; Detective Conan: Case Closed.
It actually sounds cool
In Germany they just used Detective Conan i believe. In Netherlands they just didn't air anime besides Pokémon and Yu-Gi-Oh so i watched a lot of German dub. One Piece is amazingly well done
Is the copyright issue just in the US? Because it's localised and just called Detective Conan in the Philippines
@@rapthor666yes in Germany its called Detektiv Conan
With all the "trick questions" Joey was throwing at Kyasumin, I kinda expected him to throw her a curveball of 鋼の錬金術師 (JP: _Hagane no Renkinjutsushi_ EN: Fullmetal Alchemist) only to follow it up with 鋼の錬金術師: FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST (JP: _Hagane no Renkinjutsushi: FULLMETAL ALCHEMIST_ EN: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood) for even more confusion.
I... Iron magic person!
You can see her soul being sucked out of her with every answer she gets wrong. More so when something is just a literal copy and paste like Yowamushi Pedal. That being said, I love watching you and her interact with each other. Definitely a fun family vibe.
Eren pre-timeskip: delicious game!!
Eren post-timeskip: FOOD WARS
I laughed very humanly and am not a robot. very funny comment slothboo
I definitely would like too see Joey show more with his Japanese relatives, more precisely seeing them react too something that’s English. Heck I would like them too try and guess which English words or items that only get commonly said/found in either Australia, America, the UK & Canada so we can see how of a good grasp of English they do have
Well, 98% of Japanese people don't know English so... tough luck.
How about Joey getting his Aussie relatives react to anime especially the ones who don't care about anime.
I pretty cuss words will be thrown everywhere
Sad New Zealand noises
That would be a pretty good idea.
@@Snzn_7 They could learn a thing or two. LOL

I really loved the movie for Kill Zombis! it was breathtaking even for just a movie!
Fun fact...
Here in Brazil we generally had the names of anime translated from English or Spanish, that way we had the translation of Saint Seiya as "Cavaleiros do zoadiaco" (Knights of the Zodiac).
But when they decided bring Hagane no Renkenjutsushi they decided to translate direct from the original name, in other words: "O alquimista de aço" (The stell alchemist) and a lot of people panned the translation saying it was the wrong translation because they thought Fullmetal Alchemist was the original name.
WTF, I'm brazilian and I didn't even know that. And I thought the name was Fullmetal Alchemist in japanese too, for some reason. Well, I'm no anime specialist, so maybe I'm just dumb...
Weirdly enough, the manga (plublished by JBC here) is also called "Fullmetal Alchemist" from what I know. Did they actually use the portuguese title somewhere? Or they ended up changing it?
@@Daniel_Rodrigues_89 I think they used just in one translation . In japanese is Hagane no Renkenjutshi that's literally Stell Alchemist. It's not a well know info.
Demon Slayer's Japanese title means something closer to "The Blade That Destroys Demons/Demon Destroying Blade" if translated literally word for word, so it really is a strong localization. "Demon Slayer" just sounds way better and a lot more appealing. Though I haven't seen or read it at all so idk which title actually works best.
Edit: I have watched the first few episodes and the name seems even more clever now, because the show is about "Demon Hunters" yet due to the title they're able to translate "Oni Gari" as "Demon Slayer" which again just sounds cooler.
That "ki" in kimetsu is oni, which is closer to ogre. Not demon, though.
@@plokijum No lol. 鬼 is also a demon/ogre.
@@ralphcarino5672
I thought they were closer to specifically Japanese ogre. Not like the demons or 悪魔with is western culture.
@@plokijum yes but 鬼 is also a type of demon ^^
"Demon Slaying Blade" can work, but I personally am not mad at all for "Demon Slayer", it's a fine localization, unlike Erased.

Your cousin is awesome! More videos with her. You two have great chemistry, obviously family will do that. Very fun to see how silly some of the English titles get, even though that's how many of us (in the comment section) know them.

I felt so proud of myself when I understood the context of "eigo jouzu" because of Joey's frequent "nihongo jouzu" jokes in Trash Taste lol
I used to be super into anime and manga and have fallen out of it over the years. I've wanted to get back into watching it and this has given me some great ones to start with!
It’s so interesting to see how different the translations make the titles come out. You’re cousin was getting a kick out it. She is so cute and seems like she has a great personality
@@PandaBear-qy8oq sounds like you’re sus then. What the tf wrong with saying someone has a good personality
Videos like this are great tools for those of us trying to learn Japanese. Please keep it up they are very entertaining aswell.
How far have you gotten on your Japanese learning journey?
Your cousin is so funny, and she has such a melodic voice. I'm such a fan!
Joey speaking japanese is so good to hear, I can't really explain why but I love it. And Kyasumin is also so good to hear (I think I've heard some Kansai-ben in this video 👀) Love from Brazil 🇧🇷❤️
Whenever I talk about Higurashi I always refer to it as “when the cicadas cry” because that just sounds cooler
If you think about it though, it makes sense. The episodes take place in summer which is when the cicadas "cry". Of course, that title would work for lots of other animes!
As soon as I see higurashi I can hear the cicadas so win win
As someone who studies Japanese I really enjoyed guessing which Anime you were talking about as well! (for the ones that I didn’t already know the Japanese name of)
This is probably my favourite video of yours for this year so far.
Super entertaining, great reactions, great chemistry, great timing and editing. It's always nice to hear your Japanese and see your kanji skills and the backdrop in this video was very nice! Please film more in that location!
wait this is actually great for learning Japanese seeing the interactions and absorbing everything, we need more chill in Japanese videos
You might enjoy onomappu's channel. He speaks in very comprehensible japanese, with simultaneous Japanese-English subtitles
“Good Luck Girl” gives the impression of “Good luck, girl…” in a sarcastic tone, (as in, “good luck, you’re gonna need it”) but would perhaps be improved by the addition of a comma or something, though that doesn’t read very smooth in a short title logo so IDK
Oh she's so adorable!! Yes please bring her back with another anime quiz so she can have a redemption arc. 😍🤗❤️ 9:23 Also why is it so f*ckin' cute the way Joey says "My Little Monster" with a Japanese accent. 😊
I never knew that Rurouni Kenshin had an english title!
It's interesting to me cuz growing up, during the early years of Toonami, it was called "Samurai X" but then later on after the toonami block ended, I assume a new distributor got the rights and they they just referred to it by the japanese title. (I clearly remember them pronouncing Sanosuke as "San-o-su-key" in the Samurai X dub)
It also once had another unofficial English title in common use because a lot of people thought _Samurai X_ was a kinda dumb title when it was the only official title: _Kenshin the Wanderer_
@@aghadlarhen9397 yeah kids in the 90s or early 2000s will know it as samurai X because back then there were no subbed versions on the internet so we'd had to make do with the dubbed versions on tv..these days most people just watch the subbed versions of the anime online so they'd wouldn't know it's english name.
Damn, this was hilarious!
Also, bro, your cousin is like, the cutest ever 0_0
"Case Closed" is actually the iconic saxaphone OST of Detective Conan if I remember correctly, but still
It’s funny, I grew up in Puerto Rico and the Spanish dub was called Samurai X. I never even knew about the title “Rurouni Kenshin” until it debuted on Toonami years later, when I was in High school.
Hello :) I just made a comment value that. Que tiempos 😂. I honestly preferred the Spanish dub for the longest time.
This was great, and your cousin is way easier to understand than a voice actress. Not that I understood everything, only been working on Japanese for about 1 1/2 years. I can't believe i missed this video for a few months as I have the bell clicked also. I like these, you should do more.
His vibe changes when he talks from English to Japanese as if it’s a prebuilt thing
Tbh, that's most if not everyone that speaks more than one language.
He actually has a video about that
mhm there are studies about that subject
-=.=😰😰The worst feeling as a small TH-camr is waking up in the morning to see nothing has changed on your channel. It gets tough staying motivated seeing bad numbers like that .......

@@XscarredAnime uhmm...
To make this more interesting, I would have given her incentive to, if she couldn't work out or didn't know the English title, that she would get a point if the one she made was a better title and more accurate translation.
Joey の丁寧な日本語にも感動したけど、いとこと話す友達感覚の会話も出きるの凄い☺️
途中までしか読んでない漫画が沢山あるのを思い出しました。
英語タイトル…難しかった～😱
10:18 kill zombis my favourite anime
We want more videos with your cousin! It was really fun to hear her speaking japanese and working hard to guess the titles
The cutest thing, Joey's cousin saying "ja ne"
I think the "Good Luck Girl" refers to Sakura, the protagonist, since the whole plot is about how she's way too lucky and that's fucking the balance of the world and stuff
I agree that if you think of it that way, the title makes sense. But really it should be more like "Too Lucky Girl".
Honestly never thought of that before 🤯
@@Rognik in this case I think the "good luck" works as an adjective. in other words, she's a girl with good luck, so I think the title works fine. "Lucky Girl" would make sense too but maybe it's a bit generic? I honestly have no idea what's the thought process behind it.
Don't know if they meant it this way, but it's possible it's meant to be taken as a lucky girl but more so "Good Luck, Girl". So as to say she isn't going to be lucky.
@@Kenny.S Where's the comma then?
