Are you prepared for the next touriken awesomeness?
>>144210736
damn right
>>144210736
seems like our Protag shoufukan bumps into another eccentric
Any tips for learning Chinese?
>>144210736
How do the hands and fingers work? Do the puppeteers swap arms every time they need a new pose or are there joints and articulations?
>>144211216
You don't. It is even harder than japanese
>>144210736
Is this a first or has there been blonde Taiwanese puppets before?
>>144211216
just don't skip kanji on your jp learning you lazy gaijin
>>144211719
And then what? Learn the Mandarin pronunciation for the characters?
>>144211618
I'd say Japanese is harder. As long as you aren't tone deaf you can learn Chinese well.
Hey, someone last night was asking where to download the movie Legend of the Sacred Stone and I didn't get to answer before the thread was deleted. I'm on my phone right now, but I uploaded it to Mega and will share the link in the active thread when I get home in 6 hours or so.
It's a Pili puppet movie that's subbed in English, for those wondering how it's relevant.
>>144211837
knowing enough kanji is enough to live a fulfilling /a/utist life
bonus point, if you know more kanji/classical chinese than average nip, you'll get to better enjoy those meme writer who throw in alot chink terms.
also, to get over shitty jp -> inggrish translation corruption.
>>144212311
Is the movie good?
>>144211618
Is it still hard if you just want to learn to talk, not read?
>>144211216
Beijing (Mandarin) 4 tones, Hokien 7 tones, and Cantonese 9 tones.
All of them can be written in Chinese characters but mostly when people write, they use Mandarin.
Good luck.
>>144211667
No, Taiwanese hate blondies.
>>144210736
chink official subbed release coming soon in 10 minutes. I'm gonna ride the tide soon.
what time CR releases?
>>144212369
What makes a language hard to learn is how closely it resembles your first language (ie English).
For example Chinese has a lot of ssss sounds. I don't know how to describe it. Like saying "what is this?" = "zhe shi she me" (english phonetics would be more: "zuh sih suh muh") You got 3 in a row. It's like a tongue twister. The nice thing is everything is 1 syllable though.
Compared to Japanese it shares the SVO english has instead of the SOV backwards feeling.
>>144212369
How do you plan to do that? I reckon you'd need to actually have real people who could teach you and you could practice with everyday. But I doubt it could be much faster anyway, might as well learn to read and write too.
>>144212325
Knowing Kanji doesn't tell me what ?還不知地便足鋭眼穿楊狩雲? means. I can get the meaning of parts but as a whole it eludes me. I can't even see any basic structure.
>>144212741
Either that's a slang or you're trying too hard.
>>144212596
Phonetically speaking, I think Chinese is a much harder language to learn than Japanese for Westerners.
The sounds just don't come naturally.
A lot of people could pronounce Japanese words with an acceptable accent at the first attempt, whereas it's much harder to make yourself understood in Chinese if you aren't a native speaker.
>>144212741
Yeah, you're better off learning Chinese and then gleaming Japanese not the other way around.
>>144212842
I tried to read the subs in >>144210736.
>>144212848
Yep this is what I was trying to say. It's hard to say without sounding like my mouth is full of cotton sometimes.
>>144212880
Apparently it means "You don't even know that he is 銳眼穿楊(his title or something, describing a sharpshooter) 狩雲霄(his name)".
>>144212880
>I tried to read the subs in >>144210736 (OP).
You made multiple character errors, but I can't blame you. It is hard if you are not native.
>>144212953
Adding to the difficulty is also the fact that Chinese seems to have a lot of similar sounds, e.g. there's "qing"s, "ding"s, "jing"s and the like, with four different accents that could each mean multiple things.
I'm a chink that's grown up abroad and I often have trouble remembering Chinese names because they're often a mouthful.
>>144213296
Beats Japanese where things sound the name and mean different things.
Or are written the same but mean completely different meanings and readings.
>>144213296
I still think it's easier than Japanese. 1 script vs 3 and each kanji is 1 syllable unlike Japanese where it varies and may have multiple readings.
But I believe speaking Japanese, in the literal sense, is definitely easier once you get the hang of it plus there's incentive. With Japanese you do it for the anime, manga, and games.
Stop making chinese posts, this is a japanese show we're talking about
>>>/int/
>>144213378
IIRC that happens in Chinese too.
NOT ANIME FUCK OFF
The subs happen to be CHINK because at the time I post there's only chink subbed available.
now stop all the CHINESE SHITposting and get back to the show itself
>>144213508
>get back to the show
I'm an EOP and the subs aren't out yet. Can't speak about shit.
>>144213070
I tried to read it as Kanji to the best of my ability. I'm not familiar with characters like 銳 so I can only make guesses.
>>144213439
But it has a manga now
http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/news/2016-07-15/thunderbolt-fantasy-puppet-series-gets-manga-by-complex-age-yui-sakuma/.104308
When will the raw version be up?
>>144213877
I think he meant writing 地 instead of 他 and 足instead of 是
Like, actual character recognition errors. 是 doesn't appear in nip so it's understandable but I'm surprised about 他.
TLing fantasy names is a pain so don't bother.
>>144214028
Every shit has a manga. It's really not an argument for anything.
The chuuni poem of the week is here.
「雙目不能視物，隻眼能望千里。凝吾眸光成箭，奪人不避之命。」
JP Translation ：双眸をもって何も見えない者もいれば、隻眼にて千里を見通す者もいる。
私が目を凝らせばその視線は矢となり、逃げ切れぬ者の命を奪い取る。
Translate it for us, chinkbros.

I guess it wasn't the best of my ability after all or I should have proofread.
Maybe I anticipated some context such as an unknown land.
>>144214063

>>144214478
Unless you're going to post and discuss the manga it doesn't change anything.
It's not /a/ - anime & things that have a manga adaption.

Why are you so butthurt abou puppets?
Seriously, you are just prejudiced and nothing I say'll actually change your mind. If it wasn't allowed, mods would have done something about it by now. You aren't a mod, so you can fuck off with your "not anime" bullshit. You are in no position to decide what isn't allowed in /a/

unlike kor or viet or other gooks, you actually get to see the exact kanji-s in the sub, which is quite enough to hint on the orig words.

Does the redhead doll from previous thread have any lover?
>>144214921
>I was talking about argumentation.
heh. Actually, citing precendence is and can be a valid component of a reasonable argument.
I hope the jap name subs don't take too long.
>>144216281
The precedence would be "moot/hiroyuki said so before" not "the other guy got away with it".
>>144216043
Do you mean her ? Yes, she has a lover( the guy she's holding)

Everything looks so tragic.
Why don't Chinese have a simplified alphabet for foreign/simple words?
I love hotikeiki!
>>144216772
>Why don't Chinese have a simplified alphabet for foreign/simple words?
Because Chinese doesn't have ANY alphabet. You want alphabet, try Japanese.
to be continued
>>144216840
What? They do.
>>144217111
>What? They do.
Pin-Yin isn't an alphabet.
>>144217111
Isn't the chink simplified just the post-mao one?
>>144216840
>>144217111
>>144217522
>>144217527
Pinyin is just an intonation guide for Mandarin reading, it is not an alphabet.
Mao pushed out a simplified set of commonly used characters, which differs somewhat drastically to the form that's been in use for about 1800 years, around the time of Latin Dominate and nearing to the point of Three Kingdoms.
>>144217111
Pinyin isn't an alphabet. It's literally a crutch using English alphabets to help learners with Chinese pronunciation.
>>144218036
>>144217706
Chinese is really a written language. The spoken dialects are so different to each other than it's as unintelligible as say Spanish is to a Pole. Tibetan is the most different, being as different as Hungarian is to everyone else in Europe.
There's no easy way around it. You have to understand the language from the context of characters.
Foreign words and concepts are rendered either with approximation of characters based on sound (which means that the combination differs depending on the dialect) or by compounding characters base on meaning (which means that you differ in translation based on regime)
>>144215823
And here are some of the openings,kind
of like the opening of Thunderbol Fantasy, the openings are mostly about the main characters of that season.
What do you think ?

Subs when?
>>144218229
The second video has some really cool effects.
>>144216840
Both the Japanese and the Chinese use the Latin alphabet, like we do. It's just that the Japanese are a lot more used to.
>>144218743
No. Not like you do.
The Chinese pinyin has intonation marks which you don't have, and the Japanese doesn't have it either. Your languages aren't tonal languages for one.
Cantonese Pinyin is different from Mandarin Pinyin due to them having 7 tones while mandarin have 5.
Writing a line in pinyin is not worth shit to a chinese reader.

>>144211331
They have both joints and interchangable parts.
>>144219237
>>144218178
The whole language is context clues and memorization. Old Chinese promeme is grass mud horse, which is also go fuck your mom. Same tone, same syllables. The whole language is like this. No way to peice together a word either. Family is broken down into roof and pig
This is the pinnacle of being a hipster on /a/.
>>144212357
Yes
I love how this show has the most decent coherent discussion of all things right now. Like really low ratio of people just saying the stupidest shit imaginable
>>144219237
Yes, I understand what you say. I should have added that the Latin alphabet is used by them both (maybe as a complement?), but isn't enough as a medium to write in their languages.

The pacing in the show makes it seem like there is something beyond their conflict with Betsutengai.
Who is this NotOrochimaru?
Does the enemy even stand a chance? The henchmen are weak
>>144220763

Is Rinsetsuo human?

He's notViral.
>>144221548
And they're gaining 3 more allies, the third is an old guy who'll probably die in the same episode he's introduced but still, with this pacing, the show will end before episode 8.

Might as well learn Traditional Chinese from the Taiwanese.
>>144222450
What are the advantages of learning traditional or simplified first?
>>144222595
Kanji uses mostly Traditional Chinese(Japan have their own version of simplified Kanji). Two traditional might share same simplified. For example 乾妹妹(adopted sister?) and 幹妹妹(fuck sister) is 干妹妹 in simplified. It can get confusing for beginners.

Regardless it was an alphabet used in China. Pinyin is nice and I love it myself but it's not an alphabet. But to say they didn't have one is false.

But actually, I was wondering this myself the moment I noticed his wings in the 2D design. I wouldn't put it past the trickiest bastard in the show to be some heavenly figure that meddles only when it's amusing to him.

Not quite. The anime calls itself Legend when it's actually Return of the Condor Heroes, which is Part 2 of the Condor Heroes Trilogy.

Some anons on /m/ has also speculated that Exia is actually a reference to Yang Guo from Part 2.> Exia Repair is one-armed, like how YG loses an arm
>Repair just has one big sword while 00 has two smaller swords, like how YG's big ass sowrd was later remade into the two swords in Part 3.
Puppet comedy.

Guts from Berserk has even more similarities.

I can't really imagine Miura being into wuxia, though.

>In all fairness, the faggot established himself with the 東方不敗 name BEFORE he chopped of his balls to learn that retarded 葵花宝典 technique.
>Because the technique was invented by a eunuch FOR eunuchs. Other men weren't meant to learn it.
>The logic was that since women are predisposed to Yin and men to Yang, the creator saw a way to exploit the in between since he's neither Yin nor Yang. On account of the fact that he's already a eunuch serving in the court to begin with. Other pugilists didn't know about the context, just think OH SHIT, THERE'S A SUPER SECRET AND POWERFUL TECHNIQUE, BETTER GOT GET IT.
What the fuck. So this is wuxia huh?
I still can't stop thinking about this whenever I see these threads.
>>144234059
I think he might be some "I'm actually a god/herald of god/general über being", but idk how much chinks love this type of character.
>>144235984
Heh. Is that clamp in wonderland?
>>144236008
Well, wuxia definitely has its fair share of those type of characters.

wrong traditional art, bro
i started watching episode 1 ironically and i'm nervous because i think i might be about to start actually watching a taiwanese puppet show
>>144235794
who gives a fuck about japanese live action movies here?
>>144234619
Can't be because I want to as well
>>144236167
I juststream itto shitpost about it, but I actually liked it, downloading right now.
>>144235463
How did you find it without search?
>>144234619
As long as you don't tell the doll threads in /toy/ or stain her skin.
>>144236167
You're making me want to watch it now. Main sword dude looks pretty cool.
>>144237230
Through google instead of the archive's search.
>>144229571
Many of the 90s fantasy stories be it in video game rpg or novel, manga, anime form follow a similar storyline.
Competent warrior vagrant stumbles upon ojou-san, recruits other random warriors and noble allies to aid her quest.

Real people>dolls>3D models>2D.
Dolls have a better sense of physical presence than CG.
Well done.

>Mongolian throat singing
Huh, that's actually a thing.
>>144238641
/co/'s already leaking in with RWBY manga and more of /tv/'s leaking in with live action adaptations of anime. It's time we all float back into one, like the olden days.
>>144239817
How about no? How about we don't do that?
>>144239862
Is too late.

It's never too late to change for the better.

There's a maou, so there must be that one guy who fucks with maou and chuckles about it, safe in the knowledge he holds an opposing power. It's probably down to the hero to actually fight, but Clever Goose is a clear enabler.
>>144239804
Well you learn something new everyday.
>>144212391
You can be more wrong, there are lots of blond characters in Taiwan's puppet show abd people like them
>>144239817
>leaking in with live action adaptations of anime
That's always been allowed, it's even in the rules.
>>144239758
Did some say throat singing?

>>144221579
by pure chance, do these wuxia companies make replicas or "simple" consumer versions of the dolls for puppeteering in home?
cuz i certainly would buy one of those.

What gook threads get deleted all the time.
This chink thread has also been deleted multiple times already.
Only chinks are samefagging in this thread right now.
They keep spamming the same links they posted last time.
This time they used google translate though to hide their bad English.
>>144236167
>>144237111
Samefag. Your shitty English gives you away.
Nice try, shills.
>>144240229
Pili or 金光(another company with their own series) sell them. Each is more than 1000 USD. I've never bought one and I don't know if they ship across sea.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHblCyQaWG8
real incredible the effort put in those things.
also incredible, the fact that despite being translated, i still don't have idea of what the edgy dude was talking about.
>>144240603
1000 Dollarydoos? / 18000 pesos!?
i imagine are 100% original wooden replicas or the very exact dolls used in show for that price.
i was meaning if they sell lower quality ones for kids or something?
>>144240814
Even puppets aren't safe from this madness.
>>144240356
>all this denial
>>144240744
Non-official released puppets tend to be cheaper.
But they are still hand-crafted so either order from someone who is familiar with that craftsmanship or... I don't know.
>>144240901
DAMN!
taiwan puppets are really serious fuckin business...

I just realized this guy said "chance" in Engrish. Seems out of place in this setting, don't Japs have a word of their own for that?
>>144240896
Hasn't been 2 weeks and there is already porn of Tanhi.
>>144240957
Or traditional puppets, which price has more variation.
They look like the puppets in this video.>>144235244
A quick google and the cheapest is 10 USD not including shipping.

>I just realized this guy said "chance" in Engrish. Seems out of place in this setting, don't Japs have a word of their own for that?
It is likely they might have used that word to shorten the dialogue. It is noted that the Japanese script has trouble fitting the lines in before the scene changes.
(And of course, the original Japanese script had too much dialogue and the Butcher was told to cut it shorter. The dolls have limited facial expressions so long monologues look horrible on screen.)
It is also amusing that Butcher originally designed too many different unique areas, which was not a problem in anime because they are just background art. But in Puppetry it means physically building the film sets, and changes had to be made to get around that.
That sort of explains why the pipe guy was sitting under the same tree for the start and finish of the chapter. It allows them to not waste that set which would otherwise not get used again.
Just curious, do they ever make reproductions of these dolls as merchandise?
>>144240153
Ain't that nice.
>>144238641
As long we allow BnHA to have a general on /a/ we don't have the right to complain about the rest.
>>144241491
>Just curious, do they ever make reproductions of these dolls as merchandise?
I HAVE seen physical shops selling them. The ones with the classic TV series at least. However all the online stores haven't had any in stock for years. The Pili official site haven't had any for a while.
The real deal is so expensive that it is unlikely to be mass produced. The ones you get to buy are likely plastic instead of wood.
