alright its smiling friends japanese dub guy here to YAP!!!!

personally i think with pim being australian while charlie is american allan seems like an immigrant to america but clearly trying to emulate the accent and glep being god knows what. i think itd be funny if pim spoke in kansai dialect. im literally doing this just because hes australian and i think its the funniest shit ever. also i think he would use 僕 and probably あなた for others to be polite.. also i think he would be very excited all the time with the emphasis sentence end particles everywhere
charlie i think just kinda talks like a japanese guy trying to sound cool so obv hes got the オレ out, prob calls ppl おまえ, i think hed have the ぞ at the end and turn ない into ねぇ n shit...

i think allan would be kind of like a non native japanese speaker? obviously knows the language but the sentence structure may be slightly unnatural and i think hed use 私(わたくし) and prob call ppl あなた. also i think hed use ます for literally everything bc to me it gives him that deadpan vibe he has in the show

i have no idea about glep bc he speaks gibberish in the show and im not sure if in a japanese dub he would keep doing that or theyd just get him to do a different language?? i thought itd be funny if he spoke korean but again i dont want it to imply that like korean is gibberish so yea. im not really sure about that one

also heres some dialogue i translated because i was bored on a 3 hour car ride. im not Too familiar with kansai dialect rules and i did have to consult with resources on it just so it wouldnt sound stupid but it probably does sound stupid. um i did mostly try to have the original meaning instead of localizing but someone could prob do better than me. anyway heres the i love kids dialogue the twig song and the i believe in destiny line tled by yours truly
ピム:「子供大好きわ、チャーリー! 子供大ー好きわぁぁ!」
チャーリー:「ピム、えーと、オレならそいつ肺の上部で叫んだりはしねぇぞ...」
枝好き、枝好き、僕は枝拾う好き
一本枝 二本枝 三本枝 四本
枝好きもっと頂戴いい
それが僕とあなたの違いだっせ、チャーリー!僕は運命を信じとうわ!

This is truly so interesting and insightful I’m adding this to my smiling friends brain atlus. I’m obsessed with kansai dialect Pim, it would sound SOOOO CUTE on him😭😭😭😭
