Alright, let's try.
(1/2) 昨夜、意識を取り戻しても足下が覚束なかった白粉[おしろい]を女子寮に送っていった後、アブラ神からいただいたソイジョイを食べようとしたのだ。だが、心身ともに疲弊しきっていた僕は何を思ったのかもらったそれをパックに入ったまま寮の電子レンジに投入、全力で『あたため』を開始してしまった。
たぶん、温かい夕食が食べたかったのだ。ただそれだけである。なんと切ない話か。感動レベルとしてはトランペットに憧れてショウウィンドウにへばりつく少年の話と＝で結ばれる。
しかし僕の前に現れたのは見知らぬ子供にトランペットを買い与えてくれる懐の豊かな紳士ではなく、マイクロウェーブの洗礼であった。レンジ内が明るく光ったかと思ったら、ボッフゥンという冗談みたいな音とともにパックが火花とともに破裂し、寮のブレイカーが飛んだ。
――で、罰として朝食がもらえなかったのだ。

(2/2) 温めるというのなら最低限あの袋を剥いてから、電子レンジに入れるべきだったのだ。……いや、それ以前に『あの時の僕＝トランペットに憧れてショウウィンドウにへばりつく少年』の等式が認められるのならば、あの時ブレイカーが飛ばず、温かな夕食としてソイジョイを食べることもできたと仮定すれば、将来僕は一流のジャズマンとして世界を賑わすことが可能だったのではないだろうか。
最低な所からスタートを切った僕のジャズ人生は浮き沈みのあるものであったが、最終的に七人の子供と三〇人の孫たちに見守られながら最後の時を迎える。
「素晴らしき人生だった。時に過ちもあったが、それをも乗り越えこの幸せに辿り着くことができた。私は感謝する。神に、そして全ての原点たる電子レンジで温めたソイジョイに……」
あれほど巧みにトランペットを操っていた僕の手はもう動かない。しかし妻や息子たちにしっかりと握られたは手は暖かいまま。それを感じながら僕は静かにこの世を去るのだ――

Is Japanese the most JUST language in existence? It's terribly inefficient, vague and retarded. They spend so much time coming up with letters that they forget to express something meaningful with them, and when they try to do, they trip over their retarded grammar.

How do you read 下 in 下を向いて?
>>144298984
the same way
should I just read raw manga with furigana? I really can't stand doing anki.
>>144299009
But したをむいて sounds awkward
>>144299049
You should do your fucking reps AND read raw manga.
>>144299049
Anki isn't supposed to be the focus of your studies, reading and listening should always come first when you're able to do so
You don't learn anything from doing anki, it just reminds you of shit, vocab and whatever else doesn't solidify inside your memory until you encounter them enough times in native material

>You don't learn anything from doing anki, it just reminds you of shit
You make it sound like anki is useless when most vocab can be studied just fine through anki alone. There isn't some switch in your brain for each word that only gets flipped once you remember it on your own outside of anki.
Of course you can't learn a language just through grinding vocab, but trying to gain vocab without dedicating half an hour a day or so to anki is an absolute waste of time. Why do people promoting reading always have to do so while acting like anki is poison?
>>144297278
When I regained my senses my feet were already faltering after sending the powder to the women's dormitory, I ate the Soijoi I received from the god Abura. However, my mind and body, comanded by the exhaustion, made me think in throwing the pack as it was in the dormitory's electric stove, and with it's full force it started to warm me.
But I probably ate something warm for dinner. That's what it really was. I was deeply moved though, like a boy who clings to the show window yearning for a trumpet - that's how close it was.
But what was happening in front of me wasn't a gentleman who buys and gifts a trumpet to a strange kid, it was a microwave baptism. When I thought the meat in the stove was shining brighter, there was an explosion like the sound of a buffon's joke along with the sparks from the bag in the fire, and the breaker of the dormitory went flying.
- So, as divine punishment, I won't be getting any breakfast.

>>144298881
Thanks bro but what about the first game?
>>144299510
I know that anki is a really useful tool obviously, I wasn't trying to make it sound like it's pointless, I just hate it when everyone acts like anki is the cornerstone of language learning, it shouldn't be treated like the primary activity you should be doing, it should be treated as a supplement to reading just to remind you of vocabulary that you're not encountering in native material

>>144297306
If we're talking about warming up, that bag I ripped to the best I could should've gone to the electric stove.
...No, even before, when I was a kid yearning for a trumpet clinging in the show window, if there's something as a law of equality, that breaker wouldn't have flown, and assuming I could eat a Soijoi as a warm dinner, wouldn't there be the possibility of me being a first grade Jazzman who'd enliven the entire world in the future?
Starting from the lowest place possible, my jazz life was waved up and down but, ultimately I'd welcome my final moments while watching over my seven children and thirty grandchildren.
"It was a wonderful life. There were times of mistakes but, after overcoming them I was able to arrive to this happiness. I am grateful. To god, and to the origin of everything, the warm Soijoi in the electric stove..."
My hand, who could handled the trumpet that much skillfully, couldn't move anymore. However it was just as warm from my wife and children strongly holding my hands. And while feeling that, I quietly departed this world.
Done.
Sooo long, and long sentences are kinda hard because I think it's easy to mix one with another and get something weird in there.

M-m-master, when I was on the Quasar I had a paracoita, a doll, you see, a genicon, so beautiful with her great pupils as dark as wells, her i-irises purple like asters or pansies blooming in summer, Master, whole beds of them, I thought, had b-been gathered to make those eyes, that flesh that always felt sun-warmed. Wh-wh-where is she now, my own scopolagna, my poppet? Let h-h-hooks be buried in the hands that took her! Crush them, Master, beneath stones. Where has she gone from the lemon-wood box I made for her, where she never slept at all, for she lay with me all night, not in the box, the lemon-wood box where she waited all day, watch-and-watch, Master, smiling when I laid her in so she might smile when I drew her out. How soft her hands were, her little hands. Like d-d-doves. She might have flown with them about the cabin had she not chosen instead to lie with me. W-w-wind their guts about your w-windlass, stuff their eyes into their mouths. Unman them, shave them clean below so their doxies may not know them, their lemans may rebuke them, leave them to the brazen laughter of the brazen mouths of st-st-strumpets. Work your will upon those guilty. Where was their mercy on the innocent? When did they tremble, when weep? What kind of men could do as they have done—thieves, false friends, betrayers, bad shipmates, no shipmates, murderers and kidnappers. W-without you, where are their nightmares, where are their restitutions, so long promised? Where are their chains, fetters, manacles, and cangues? Where are their abacinations, that shall leave them blind? Where are the defenestrations that shall break their bones, where is the estrapade that shall grind their joints? Where is she, the beloved whom I lost?

> も足下が覚束なかった白粉[おしろい]を女子寮に送っていった後、
it was after sending the powder to the women's dormitory (足下が覚束なかった = could this be as in regretting one's actions?)

Mind and body along with exhaustion

Formula? Expression? Style? Command? Direction?

What I got (or was allowed to?) to think was

Also, where is this from?
>>144300798
Yeah, I don't have as much time to play VNs on PC anymore. Which is one of the reasons why I'm thinking of getting a vita.

Don't get Taiko for jap practice though, that's ridiculous. There's like no text and the story is shit. I would only get a vita for jp practice if you're past the point where you need texthookers, otherwise stick to PC

What was I thinking in? I threw it in the microwave still in the package

and put it on full strength
It being もらったそれ instead of just それ kind of gives me the impression that the commentary could be in regards to もらった instead though

But its more about the Kanji. I mean do you REALLY need that many complex characters to form simple words?
>>144312129
You get used to it
They have their advantages, although kanji is responsible for like 70% of the time spent learning the language
>>144312129
When you get to the point where you can figure a words' meaning by their kanji you start thinking they're worth it.
Also, for reading I think they're a must, different from speech where you can assume you'll know the context, when reading you don't have such assumptions.
>>144312129
Kanji is largely to thank for Japanese students showing a higher grade of retention than other cultures and languages, likely because kanji makes them read in terms of concepts and not literal words.

Anyone know if Planetarian is a relatively easy read?
>>144316800
No dude it's harder than Muramasa.
>>144316800
Yeah man it's around the same level as Hanahira
>>144316800
Easier than Muramasa, but harder than Hanahira.
>>144316800
Can you ask the question again?
What are some easy to read LN? I kept trying to get into Kino no Tabi but I found it a bit boring

Bakemonogatari

Zaregoto.

I've been reading オレのラブコメヒロイン recently and it seems relatively easy, but I'm not really sure if that might just be because I've improved a lot or whatever, definitely harder than Kino at least
Also your taste is shit Kino is great

LN aren't in general that easy. Consider sticking with manga instead if you don't want to push yourself hard

I've been ramping up my kanji studies, up to 1800 now. It feels like I'm going to make it but I know dekinai-chan is lurking around every corner. Only 400-ish more to go though...Yes I know there are lots of 表外 kanji but after I finish 常用 I'll shift my focus elsewhere.
>>144317740
Not intentional
>>144317821
Hope you're not just doing kanji study and nothing else

Nah it's I'm studying kanji by vocab, but my grammar and especially writing is falling behind because lately I've been too lazy to do much studying outside of anki. So I'm looking to change that once I "finish up" my chinese characters.

I tried it once and it was really hard, but that was before I actually read anything and I didn't have a texthooker. It is probably easy to average difficulty and it pretty short. I think you should give it a try.
>>144315406
That program feels so fucking fake. Pretty sure they are "translating" what they say to whatever they want
how important is reading ? is listening just as good ?
I know this is a long shot but does anyone know if Ika Musume volume 22 is online anywhere? Can't seem to find a download for it
>>144319341
They're both just as important as each other
where do you guys get your academic material pdfs?
>>144319341
Reading practice is important if you want to learn to read.
>>144319581
but for absorbing grammar can listening be enough?
>>144319643
Yes but you should do both

No, literature has heavier grammar than conversations, so you'll be really behind if you limit yourself to listening.
Besides, you don't just absorb grammar in isolation. You learn it along with all other aspects of Japanese in whatever medium you choose to engage in.

After reading for a year and then going back to Yotsubato, I can safely say that Yotsuba speaking in kana is the hardest thing to understand in the whole language

>>144320297
Not true. You can learn the grammar just fine watching anime

>>144320749
Sure, if you want to learn enough grammar to watch anime. But if you try to pick up a book or VN, you'll suddenly be lost.

Which guide is better for learning Japanese?
The one here or that one on the /int/ Japanese thread?
>>144320912
I've read three VNs without any grammar study. All I had to look up was kanji and some words
>>144320912
Depends what anime you watch, there's plenty of anime series with the same level of grammar that you'd find in VNs and such
>>144321055
>>144321017
Also depends on the VN, since some don't have much narration at all. Just in general, you don't get anywhere near the density of ideas expressed in narration-heavy writing as you get in conversations, and that density requires more advanced grammar.

After reading through Yotsuba seven times I can safely say I understand the whole language.
Thank you for everything DJT. See you later, space cowboys.
>>144321004
>that one on the /int/ Japanese thread
didn't they just take the old guide from here
>>144321914
So I've just started reading and am having trouble with knowing the different pronunciations and when to use them of kanji. I assume I'm fucking it up even more since there isn't always furigana. Is there anyway to go about knowing when to use the different pronunciations or will I just pick it up eventually?
>>144322058

Dont learn single kanji pronaunciations, learn whole words.
>>144322176
Try studying Japanese instead of Chinese
>>144321914
>>144322398
Helpful, do they not change at all when grouped as they are?
>>144322805
That is what I'm doing by trying to read the sentences.
