Think about it, every time there is an l in japanese, its changed to an r. So every time there is an r in japanese words that MUST mean it is supposed to be an L.

Doesn't matter how you pronounce it, naruto is all kinds of awesome!!!
Nalkuto. Sakula. What about Rock Lee? Lock Ree.. OMFG, haha, oh wow. Oh, man..
I have heard them call him "Rii" though.
Shikamalu. Iluka. Kulenai. Kankulo. Temali. Jilaiya. Oh, that's fucking awesome.
Although, really, it's just fucking hard to tell.
Some Japanese people swap R's and L's around, other use all R's, some can use L's in the correct places in English words.
Like, how, for instance, I once heard Goku call Bulma "Buruma", whereas Gohan just called her "Bulma". Though it was a little more like "Bul-uh-ma", but not much emphasis on the "uh" bit, since they still struggle with not having vowels in between everything.
Seriously though, oh man, that's fucking awesome.
In the Japanese language that sound is in the middle of a r and a l.
It's not that hard to make, just go to your bookstore and get a book on jap.

Is it true that Narutards in the US call anime Annie-May?
I heard it once and thought of all those weapons of mass destruction they harbour. They should just blow themselves the fuck up those worthless heaps of shit.

Well, I can't speak for them because I can't stand that show and I don't really watch anime at all.
But yeah, anime is (Ahh-nee-may)

actually its the opposite
a chinese "r" is even more distinct than an english "r"
it's the same reason why chinese english speakers naturalize quicker whereas few japanese english speakers sound fluent
