YMMV / BECK (1999)

Go To

  • Hollywood Pudgy: Koyuki, with no sense of sarcasm, chides Maho to not eat so much or she'll get fat. Unfortunately, that's Japan for ya.
  • Narm:
    • GET THE FUCK OUTTA HERE!!! (Ryusuke calling out on Koyuki, after the latter unintentionally breaks a guitar the former had given him in an early episode. Turns out that the guitar, which Ryusuke cherished for thinking it belonged to Eddie Lee, was a replica of Eddie's usual one, and all was good between them again.) It's only funny because of Ryusuke's accentized English.
    • Averted in the English dub, where Eric Vale's lack of an 'Engrish' accent helps the line's effectiveness.
  • Suspiciously Similar Song: The gentle guitar chords of "Moon On The Water" sound a lot like Ednaswap's Wacko Magneto version of "Torn".
  • They Changed It, Now It Sucks!: Many fans' reaction to Funimation's having to swap out The Beatles' "I've Got A Feeling" for an in-house Dying Breed song during the anime's climax in Episode 23.
