Karate Kid Is A Lot Different When Mr. Miyagi Speaks Fluent English

Did you know that Pat Morita, aka Mr. Miyagi in the Karate Kid series, spoke fluent English? Well, this video was made by an Asian guy who was sick of growing up and having to constantly hear "wax on, wax off" from his round-eye friends. So he decided to redub the movie to show you how different Mr. Miyagi’s mystical Eastern philosophies spoken in his mildly offensive faux accent would sound in his real voice. I like this version, way, way better.

I was hoping he’d give Cobra Kai thick accents, if only to hear “SREEP DA REG JONNY!!!”

Um, does the fact that the dubber can’t act AT ALL have any bearing on the lowered believability? This dork needs to get a job and stop trying to fake relevance.
