In anime and manga, there are various expressions called Yakuwari-go ( role language) .Yakuwari-go are expressions typically used by characters in anime and manga that are not used in the real world. There are many such characters in anime and manga. This paper focuses on expressions used by the character Hakase ("Old Scientist)".Kinsui (2003) examined ja (a part of the predicate) used by characters in popular books from the Edo period to the present and stated that the "role language" of "Hakase" resembles a sociolect used in the Edo period which, as a result, displays the characteristics of a western Japan dialect.This paper, which examines the usage of washi, a first-person pronoun in materials from the Edo period such as a dialect dictionary, texts on dialects, popular books and Japanese language textbooks, confirms that washi is characteristic of the "role language" of the character Hakase.
