Reverse Translation Game

Okay, now for a little game. I will write out the reverse translations (i.e. what was actually said in Japanese) for the scenes below. See if you can figure out what English translation they match with (bonus points if you can name the show the clip came from as well.especially B. if you get B i am going to be freaked out).

1.あそこ みてください。
2....くらのなかに...
3.にぎやかですね。
4.それわそれ、これわこれ
5.りっぱなたてものだな。
6.そです、せんこうは 「生物学」せいぶつがく です。
7.あれは こわい ですね。
8.ざんねん ですね。

  1. Okay, that was pretty neat. I was able to figure them all out! (Though I don't know what any of the shows are, I'm pretty ignorant of あにめ D: )

  2. Well done!

    Yeah, and some of the screenshots would be hard to pick out even if you knew the shows. There are 5 different shows represented.
