Reminds me of the ridiculous English accent the sword/shield female player character had in the anime, only for a bunch of Americans online to go OH MY GOD THEY MADE HER SCOTTISH.

It wasn't even CLOSE to Scottish.

It was nothing to do with the cartoon itself. It was the people on twitter who can't tell two completely different accents apart. It'd be like hearing a New Yoik accent and thinking it sounds Southern.

I laugh every time I hear someone praise members of the cast of The Walking Dead or are surprised that so many of them are not American. Their accents are horrid. It took me a very long time not to "hear through" their acting and I still sometimes hear it during an episode and have suspension of disbelief killed. Another show I recently watched was way worse with it though. Trying to remember what it was.
