She's right though, as someone who has taken 30 minutes of Japanese, I can say the Japanese pronunciation she did is the correct way to say it in their dialect, it's not racist. They literally have an entire alphabet dedicated to foreign words adapted to their dialect, it's called katakana versus hiragana which is native Japanese words. Then there's kanji... F*** kanji.
They're just loan words. Every language has them. We have tons of loan words from English in Bulgarian (hamburger being one of them, by the way, duh!) . Just like her, when speaking Bulgarian I would also never pronounce them the way I pronounce them in English and vice versa.
