As someone who speaks Japanese, of course it does grate a little when people mispronounce words. But I've gotten over being defensive about it - to be honest, most hardcore anime nerds who attack others for wrong pronunciation also, ironically, can't pronounce them right worth shit.

Additionally, you'll notice that Japanese voice actors, etc., don't even TRY to pronounce English correctly. For every English actor that says Toe-Ki-Yo, all Japanese actors will say Nyuu-Yoruku-Shiti.

Now I think, as someone said above, if the pronunciation has been adapted in a way that sounds right for the language you're speaking, fly with it. Whatever.

To be fair, that's a difference in the flexibility of the languages: Japanese is syllabic and has fewer consonants (and WAY fewer vowels) than English, and loan words often have to be changed in order to be transcribed in any Japanese alphabet. English has enough sounds that speakers should be able to at least say "manga" without screwing it up too much.

This has been my experience as well.
