Well,I checked out Ms. Hanazawa,and she doesn't speak English herself. It's interesting that they'd use her in a game that helps people speak English. I don't understand Japanese myself. I wonder how they managed to get someone who doesn't know English in a game where you learn English.
I'm also amazed that they use a game to teach English to people. Well,whatever the technique. We have educational games here. So,why not there? Also,in that ad I saw,just about the only things I understood were the phrases they were using to teach people English.

@snomaster1

you must have missunderstood the article, Hanakana isn't there to teach people english ("Hanazawa does not voice the English-speaking portions of the exercises") just to cheer people on.

And that's a good thing considering how she speaks english

I heard.. "May I touch your dicks".. Not sure if I've misheard -.-

This is why perverts in Japan have better mastery in English than the normal average one lol

After hearing how Ms. Hanazawa's handling of English from totoum,it sounds like she needs to play this game or at the very least,find a way to learn English better. I agree with Cryssoberyl. Her English needs a lot of work.
