Nope, a couple of years should have you reading shit just fine with a dictionary. A couple more should have you being able to read and listen to pretty much anything you want mostly unassisted. Source, somebody who's actually been doing anki at a very leisurely pace (20 new cards a day is my limit, 0 new cards is a common occurrence) for 3 years and can read/listen to most things just fine, relying less and less on the dictionary each day.
>>
>>136339579
>How important is being able to write Japanese in person?
Depends. Do you plan on working/living in Japan? Then it's probably going to be a pretty useful, if not essential skill. Do you plan only on using the language to understand Japanese media and occasionally type shit? Then it's slightly beneficial at best, but mostly useless.

>Do you have to spend extra time working at it?
Yes. A little bit of time if you want to be able to write the strokes in the correct order, and a lot time if you want to be able to write characters that don't look like shit.

Did you learn the stroke order while learning new vocab/kanji, or is it better to go back and do it later?

It's been taking me hours just to memorize how to write 25 cards a day, even if I get their meaning and pronunciation within minutes.
>>
>>136340196
stroke order is useless
>>
>>136340227
Is writing entirely useless as well?
>>
>>136340031
Short answer, I estimate it was a little bit over 1k, maybe as much as 1.5k

Long answer, I had my own deck where cards would have a kanji in the front while the back would have its meaning (which I'd try to write as succinctly as possible based on different sources and looking at several words which contained said kanji). I'd also put in the back a handful of example words, though I'd only really remember one or two of them in practice, three at most. I had gone through about something around 600 kanji when I started reading, so that amounts to something between 600 and 1800 words.

>>136340196
>Did you learn the stroke order while learning new vocab/kanji
I did, though most people don't apparently. Personally, I just wanted to learn the whole thing right, and I enjoyed it, but I can't really argue against the people who say you don't need to know how to write in order to read. The best I can say is that knowing how to write will help you a lot when trying to understand handwritten kanji, and it helps remembering the kanji too. At least it did for me. If I didn't learn to write them it would probably take me much longer to figure out how to look at a kanji properly.

>It's been taking me hours just to memorize how to write 25 cards a day, even if I get their meaning and pronunciation within minutes.
Don't learn kanji pronunciations individually if that's what you're doing. That's retarded levels of inefficiency. Learn their pronunciation only as you learn words which contain them.

And finally, if you're going to practice writing then learning stroke order is a must. There's no point in learning do to something wrong only to correct it later.

Like I said, learning the stroke order is not really that time consuming or difficult. Having good handwriting is what's hard.

Hey guys, I've been following the Japanese Learner Anki Package's instructions for a couple weeks now, and am just finishing up with Japanese the Manga Way.pdf. I've been reading and taking notes, about 4 chapters per day, but haven't been reviewing old chapters daily. Should I be doing that, or is it okay to just let the grammar/verb forms sink in gradually? It looks like there are 3-4 more grammar sets, do they re-teach all the JTMW stuff, or do I need to know JTMW forwards and backwards before moving on?

Think of it from a normies perspective and it makes sense. Heck, it makes sense to me. Approach it from two different angles.
Motivation - why learn Japanese? For you, VNs, anime, manga, maybe 2ch and lns, in short a FUCK TON of great Japanese media. For normies? They don't know about ANY of that, except maybe anime to some degree, and anime is not worth learning a language for for many. A normies motivation is always shallow and thin, I've seen it over and over on language learning websites. They want to learn it because their family has a history with it. They want to learn it because they're interested in visiting one day. And so on and so on. Japanese is way too hard for such a flimsy motivation to survive.
Usefulness - where to use Japanese? Like last time, you can use Japanese for VNs, anime, manga, etc etc. It's probably already a big part of your life so it's useful to learn it. Where would a normie use it? The only answer is in Japanese itself, talking to natives. Last poster said Japanese not being useful is a meme, but for normies I think it's just plain true. Think of it this way - assume you knew Chinese or German or Korean. How useful would it be? What would you use it for? Honestly, probably nothing. Likewise, a normie would do nothing with Japanese, and therefore the huge time investment isn't worth it.

Don't read latter-era Agatha Christie, she got Alzheimers and her writing suffered a lot from that. Mystery books are actually the normie garbage of the literary world, so you've got bad luck having it as your favourite. Fantasy would doubtlessly improve your English more than anything else, that's where all the purple prose is - Book of the New Sun, Mazalan Book of the Fallan, stuff like that. Of course, besides Fantasy and Mystery in the first place, you'd benefit a lot from reading just plain essays.Stuff like:

You need to be in Japanese Locale
>>
>>136344269
So much for using VNs, I guess. But thanks for the explanation. I'll stick to other reading resources.
>>
>>136344330
Switching to Japanese locale takes less than a minute, the fuck is wrong with you.
>>
>>136344330
Japanese locale has 0 impact on any program, it just enables windows to use SHIFT-JIS on non-Unicode programs like Japanese ones. At worse \ will be replaced with yen symbols in CMD.
>>
>>136344434
I'm computer illiterate.
I thought I read somewhere that it messes with other things, but if it is such a quick process then I guess it doesn't matter to switch back and forth, even if it does.
>>
>>136344483
>switch back and forth

Literally why. But whatever you're comfortable in anon.
>>
>>136344483
There are exceedingly rare occasions where it will mess with things.
1 - The installer for certain programs may be in Japanese
2 - The language for certain programs may become Japanese
However both of those are very unlikely and have never happened to me in 4 years of Japanese locale. And even if they did you could quickly switch back.
>>
>>136344483
It requires a reboot so switching back and forth is not really viable, better switch and stay on it, it doesn't fuck up anything unless you need to use programs in some other bullshit language.
>>
>>136344434
It also fucks up stuff like diacritics.

It's really not that weird, the only JRPG I've ever played was hyperdimensional neptunia a couple months back and I didn't play it much

Not counting shit like pokemon since those aren't really JRPGs

Pokemon is a JRPG
>>
>>136344897
we all agree pokemon is gay shit, but it's still an jrgp
>>
>>136344929
I'd say it's more like an RPG that's made in Japan, when I think of JRPG are characterised by the whole running dungeons grinding for gear kinda system

Where do I look for good JRPGs? I haven't really played any either aside from Dark Cloud (one of my favorite games as a kid) and I guess Final Fantasy. Preferably something with cute anime girls because I'm shallow and want something cute to look at along with good gameplay/story.

Djt, I got a question.

I'm done with Hiragana, almost done with katakana. Want to start on Kanji soon since schools starting back up.

What's the recommended daily card limit you all would suggest?

Also, any other books I should read besides Genki? Any recommended material/tools?

You should do no more than 10 cards a day, otherwise you will burn out. I'd personally recommend doing 5. There's no rush.

Depends. If the stem is also a noun then it could be. It's also possible that what you're seeing is verb stem + 出し, which is the stem of verb stem + だす.

>>136341416
It's not at all beneficial to be compulsively anal about perfecting textbook grammar lessons because the patterns aren't just something you can consciously remember and apply. Even the more important stuff is more complicated than you think it is and will take time and genuinely experiencing the language to actually understand the way the language works. This isn't a bad thing, though. It actually means that taking the dry, textbook approach isn't what's going to help you the most. It means that what helps you the most is the actually enjoyable experience of interacting with native content that you find interesting.

Does anyone know how to fix this?

Chiitrans displays the text normally, but it's displayed as these weird characters inside of the VN. My system locale is set to Japanese, so I'm not sure what's causing it.

Is it because I'm on windows 10? I heard that some VNs have issues with windows 10 but this is the first time that I'm encountering any problems.

This chiitrans lite program is pretty good. I used to use ITH but it doesn't work with windows 10. I tried out visual novel reader but it was complete shit UI and buggy as fuck. Chiitrans lite is simple and actually allows you to copy & paste text as well.
