** The name of the author of ''Literature/LogHorizon'' and ''Literature/{{Maoyu}}'' light novels, ''Mamare Touno'', in Spanish sounds like ''Mamaré Todo'', as in ''(I will) suck everything''.
** In a related note with the above, Japanese voice actor Creator/MamoruMiyano is a pretty notorious example, as his name, pronounced in either Asian or Western order and pronounced in quickly fashion, sounds like as the Spanish for "suck/kiss my anus" (Western) or "my anus will be sucked/kissed'' (Asian).
** The nickname of Creator/GoichiSuda, aka "[=Suda51=]", just like with the case of Music/AKB48, also sounds funny for Spanish ears, as it sounds as "Suda(me) 51", in the context of "Sudame a 51 (personas)", which, depending of the context and dialect, would sound as either "Put 51 people to work really hard" or "Go had sex with 51 people".
** A few female Japanese names has also this effect, like ''Rie'' (to laugh), ''Risa'' (laugh), ''Maya'' (as the Mayans, the ancient Mesoamerican tribe. It's also a proper name in some Western countries as well), ''Nako'' (Mexican slang for a ''male'' hillbilly), any name ending or beginning with either ''Kago'' or ''Kaga'' (I shit and (s)he shits, respectively), etc.

* "nya" in Japanese is the sound that cats make. "-nya" in Korean is a suffix used when the speaker is rudely asking a question to someone their own age or younger. This means that a Korean speaker could be trying to be rude, but to their Japanese listeners it sounds like they randomly started meowing or trying to be cute, as preschoolers in Japan are known to suffix phrases with “-nya” when they’re talking to someone they’re close with.

** On the topic of “Buta”, the word means “Blind” in Malay but “Pig” in Japanese. This can quickly escalate as an angry Malay speaker may sarcastically ask you if you’re blind (“Anda buta ke?”) when accidentally bumped into, and to a Japanese who barely speaks the language, it sounds like they’re being called a pig.
