I can't help but wonder if Karai grew up in Japan or the US. It would explain her lack of a Japanese accent for this version if it's the latter.

I was born in New York, but grew up in Virginia. My parents moved when I was still 2, going on 3. My folks said I had an accent but soon faded since I was in a different environment. Edit: Another example. I had a student here who's Korean. She (4th grade) and her sister (2nd). They'd been living in Korea but was on break from school and they had to attend some kind of school since in Japan with relatives. Both had grown up in the US (Hawaii and California) and because of their father's job, they were now residing in Korea, except for those months where they were in Japan. Both sounded like they were from the US, especially Californian. So yeah, people generally adapt the vernacular and pronunciation of what's around them, especially if young.
