"In essence you're supporting making fun of people's accents?"

I have absolutely no idea how you came up with that. Generally speaking, people from various countries and cultures pronounce things differently from other countries/cultures. This is an undeniable fact, and simply stating it does not at all suggest that I support making fun of this fact. This conclusion would only be natural to a certain type of immature mind.

Japanese in particular is a very different language from English, and they developed entirely independently of one another. Certain sounds and syllables exist in one that do not exist at all in the other.

What I wrote in the above example was meant for the first AWC, and you may be the same person, to understand why it is acceptable to pronounce the character of a fictional piece of Japanese work in a way that is different from what a typical English speaker would naturally think to pronounce it, i.e., to pronounce it in a way that the original target audience (Japanese) would pronounce it.
