English with a Japanese accent
A Japanese accent signals precision, craft and cutting-edge cool — ideal for tech, gaming, automotive and beauty.
English with a Japanese accent carries connotations of precision, craftsmanship and cutting-edge design, which technology, gaming, automotive and beauty brands use to signal quality and innovation in an English-language advert.
We cast native Japanese voice actors who perform in English with an authentic accent, directed from a crisp, minimal touch to a warmer, more characterful read. Recorded to broadcast quality and delivered fast.
When Japanese-accented English works best
A Japanese accent is at its best on tech, gaming, automotive and J-beauty brands trading on precision and cool — a gadget launch, a game trailer, a skincare line. For warm, chatty consumer content we'll suggest a different read, and for a Japanese-market campaign we'll cast a native Japanese voice over. We'll help you choose the right voice.
Before anything is booked, we will read the script for free and tell you where an English-fluent Japanese voice will need direction — brand names and loanwords, usually. Then we record a free casting on your own copy. The quote that follows is itemised, with nothing bundled.
