    There’s definitely words only used by “tough guys” but I’ve never heard anyone call it a dialect. There are also words only used by anime characters. So if you learn Japanese through media, you’re probably going to be told “you sound like a tough guy/anime protagonist” eventually. However, most native Japanese speakers believe that their language is very complex and will forgive foreigners for misspeaking.
