It's pretty good too, nice little dictionary for stuff and the dialogue covers topics not common in most SOL games so its good practice in addition to being interesting. I'm glad someone posted about it all that time ago, woulda overlooked it. If only Last Cavalier wasn't so immensely difficult.

It seems like an alright resource from what little I've read of it, but the romaji is a real turn off.

What's it like difficulty-wise?
>>139341320
Not easy; consistently long sentence length, wide range of subject matter and thus high vocabulary level, author likes to use kanji for words like 総て, etc. Not something someone who knows Japanese will struggle with though if that makes sense.
>>139341313
You having seen a kanji has no relevance to its rarity.

I've been studying Japanese for a year and a half and I don't even know most hiragana characters. I've tried pretty much every free resource and I haven't made any progress and I don't have the money to attend classes/get a tutor. I honestly don't know what I should do and I feel like giving up.

To be fair, I learned a second language, electrical engineering, programming, and tons of other shit from the internet.
Don't trust everything you read on the internet, but if you're not fucking retarded, you can learn whatever the fuck you want.
It's not like books are necessarily more reliable. Remember, they were written by people too. People write about shit that's not correct. Take the entire Genki textbook series for example.

>i don't know how to study
dude you're done
give up
>>139346468
Don't take KanjiDamage's word as law, that's a given for any learning source. It gives good exposure, and mnemonics, even if they are cringy and not 100% correct all of the time.
Having a basic understanding in layman's terms is better than having no understanding at all. When I was a child, I didn't know what masturbation was, so I asked my friend, who told me that it was using your hand to practice for sex. Obviously that's not a 100% accurate meaning of the word, but you get the idea. This is what I thought it was for years. Now I'm almost 20 and am a fucking pro.
Dismissing something for inaccuracies is what separates the できるs from the できないs. Read everything and gain exposure. Decide for yourself what a words means.

I've decided that 僕 exclusively means コキュ from this point.

Alright DJT, you lot are probably the best people to ask this about.
My cousin has said they want to study Japanese at university, I'm suspecting it's due to them getting into anime. Is this going to fuck up their career prospects? Does going to university for a language suitably teach you it? Are they better off just learning it on their own?
My impression of these threads was that you are all selfteaching, but is university that bad idea and should I tell them to study something proper?

>>139347050
ive arrived at an answer
honestly you should go to school for whatever actually drives you. i dont want to assume things but a lot of people are half hearted about stuff and dont finish what they start so it could be a bad idea but who knows
college is about who you meet and opportunities you find not the classes you take
at least it should be if you want to get anywhere after graduating
>>139347151
then it depends where you live
>>139347050
They should double major. Learning japanese on its own is useless

Is he going to take a course on the side on major in the language? Majoring in Japanese can fuck him up real good so he better have some extra money for a second degree once he's done with that. Taking Jap on the side isn't that bad but he most likely won't learn shit.
>>139347448
thx bro that 来 fucked me up
>>139347517
>Is he going to take a course on the side on major in the language?
I have no idea, all I heard on the family grapevine was that they were studying languages at uni and their choice was Japanese. I'll suggest they do a split course or some shit, they can work that out themselves.
>>139347296
in the UK uni language studies are not necessarily a dead end and can lead into linguistics, but somehow I doubt someone who's planning to study japanese itself at uni would be into that

>>139348030
I think it must be a thing for Countries that are small islands Britain and Ireland have regional dialects where people have difficulty understanding accents of people who live less than a hundred miles away from them

So, while I am reviewing RtK, should I try to remember every story I thought of, or if I remember the kanji instantly by just the keyword I should just flip it to verify?
I am at the first 50 right now, but the keyword instantly triggers the form of the kanji for me.
>>139349206
I just typed as per my own regional dialect led me to. Though "Masta" was more of a media thing.
>>139349305
I'm mostly pointing out that most of the oddity when you write with accent pronunciation is because of orthography instead of big variations.
>>139349298
The first 50 are really simple ones, but it's still a good idea to get into the habit of remembering the story, for when you get into the complex ones.

Have you taken a university Japanese course? I've learned the basics of grammar and I know a few hundred kanji by now. I'm not going to major in it, but I do want to learn. How helpful are those classes? I'm sure I could test out of the first class, but I'm really taking it so I can practice with the qt professor.
>>139353027
A few hundred kanji is not much.
>>139353067
I know. It's an introductory Japanese course. That's a few hundred more than I'm expected to know. What I want to know is how helpful university Japanese courses are in general. Obviously you won't reach fluency with those courses alone. I'm asking those who have taken classes what they think of said classes.

Most likely. I assume the only other people taking the class are anime faggots that only want to learn so they can watch shitty battle harems. I'm definitely not one of them. I've already read most of the textbook so it should be a free class. In any case, I'll just use the office hours to chat with sensei.

好きな and 好きの are not interchangeable.
好きな is a na-adjective while 好き in the latter is a noun + the particle の.

This is grammatically incorrect and doesn't make sense.
Alright, I'm going to start some kind of new challenge for myself in order to get better at Japanese.
I'm going to (re)watch all the Pokémon episodes in order from the very beginning in Japanese with Japanese subtitles. Not sure if I'll be able to find them all but at the very least if I can get all the raws it'd be pretty neat. If subs aren't available then I won't be using any as even English subs would I think hurt my experiment and break the immersion I'm aiming for (I'm already watching anime with English subs every day anyway).
Anyone wanna join me? I'm low intermediate by the way.

>>139354900
No I meant exactly what I said. I thought he mistook Y好きのX for Yが好きのX.
犬好きの人 for example means a person who loves dogs.
>>139355600
Knowing what it means is important. Memorizing readings is a little autistic, but you definitely need to be able to read them in context.
>>139355714
i should know how to say things though. i just dont get why it doesnt click
i see the kanji for moon, i know its moon but can i remember tsuki? no way in hell
i think im retarded
>>139355835
I think you're retarded too. If you're that slow, maybe try mnemonics somehow? Any time I see a kanji I know, I repeat the readings to myself. It sounds dumb, but it seems to be solidifying japanese words into my vocabulary well.
>>139354800
just do one a day if you want anyone to join you become a meme man
>>139355835
It's okay, I had similar problems. I'm addressing it by making a duplicate of the deck I'm using and starting from the beginning testing just the pronunciations. It helps a lot, especially since the Core deck builds on itself so it gets easier as you go.
>>139355835
try swapping the position of the English definition and the readings it might help to see tsuki first then moon under it

>>139355835
maybe write some vocab out in hiragana with the kanji while you study them or something
they like to overwhelm you with quantity telling you to learn a billion words but its cool if you just take it mypace and really learn the words youre studying and move on
今日の日本語の口頭試問は難しかった (>.<) 大変だ

Ideally he'd stop reading it as moon entirely, and just think 'tsuki' when he sees it. It takes a while for that to happen, though.
>>139354207
Sounds like a nukige title.
>>139355710
I see, 好き(ずき) as a suffix
The only time I can think of 好き directly taking の is something like 好きの気持ち where の basically acts as という
>>139355835
>i see the kanji for moon, i know its moon but can i remember tsuki? no way in hell
You have to build up methods to remember. I live in Japan, so I can hear the things I study in day to day life, and it clicks better. If you're in another country though, you have to immerse yourself in entertainment or it's just an uphill battle.
Tsuki is easy; Tsukino Usagi was Sailor Moon's full name (月野うさぎ）so a pun was that she was literally the moon's rabbit.
tsuki will be easier to remember once you learn it in other words, like 半月 (half a month), while using the same reading.

are you saying i should go full weeb and watch anime undubbed all day?
i think i could. what should i watch though?
>>139356826
You should at the very least be really actually listening to the dialogue, even if you're watching subbed. You'll pick up on more than you think.

No, I personally think anime is shit. I'm an outlier in these threads and hate how exaggerated the voices are, and think people who speak like anime characters in real life are painfully obvious (and oblivious). DJT disagrees, but it's good listening practice regardless. I much prefer live action dramas and tokusatsu, if only for the practicality of adding actual body language. Either way, it just depends on what you'd enjoy most.
But you should do a little of anything and everything. Try reading a few pages of raw manga, see if you recognize anything. Watch a minute of raw anime with japanese subs and see what you recognize. Listen to karaoke on youtube and try to keep up with the furigana readings. Check out NHK news, or talk to a penpal. Study textbooks on top of Anki. There are a dozen ways, it's up to you.
>>139357019
>I much prefer live action dramas
Shiiiiiiiit taaaaaasteeee, m8.
>>139357019
Dorama acting is less natural than anime acting most of the time.
>>139357019
since the other guy didnt rag on you for tokusatsu i will
youre a disgusting man child
also yeah anime people irl are the worst but its cool to do it online and itt
>>139357206
youre less natural than anime
>>139357236
I mean, the /a/ in Japan I meet are obsessed with Love Live and 2hu. I might watch shows meant for babies, but at least it doesn't leave others thinking I'm a sexual degenerate.
>>139357206
Really depends on what you watch. The source material is typically manga for both drama and anime, so eh. Don't discredit the importance of body language in language though - talking on the phone is nearly impossible for me, but I can manage my way through any conversation for day to day life without a hint of anxiety.
>>139343182
Stop trying to force this shitty meme you fucking jew.
I don't get the 2nd sentence. Is he saying the restaurant he's at is feels like he's in Japan?
The 3rd sentence is even less comprehensible to me. "Is this Japanese style? It tastes like something a Japanese might have made but, its not to die for"
アメリカにある日本レストランは中国や韓国人が経営している日本風レストランが多いです。
本当の日本レストランは数少ないですが、全く雰囲気が違い、日本にいるようです。
ここは日本風なのかな？もし、日本人が作っていたらうどんの味が あーーにはならないはず。

The only definitions that you have to care about are definitions for actual words, so don't stress. They are used in Kanji Damage more to help you remember the kanji than anything else.
Obviously double check any of the 熟語 listed at times, but you should get into the habit of cross referencing those sorts of things anyway.
>>139357520
どんなところ？
>>139357469
i mean that stuff is specifically made for pathetic adults who are adults in name only
tokusatsu though is actually for children. you might not actually be a total creep but some of those tokusatsu boys put the 2d boys to shame
>>139357471
personally i think it woulda been better as a gif and if the laser was actualy burning a hole in the cant do girls head

I'm definitely not the only one doing it and I think it's funny and rightful revenge for that guy being such an autist over it.
>>139357748
Eh, modern tokusatsu is for children and housewives - that's why pretty boys are groomed as upcoming idols for mature dramas after. You'll often hear those same actors as VA's or see them on variety shows.
The fact that they're legacy characters (or rather, franchises) means a lot to Japan, where you're as likely to see an airing of a 40 year old anime as you are anything modern on television. Plus shows like Rider and Ultraman used to be prime nighttime family entertainment for many in their late 20s/early 30s. I think you're overestimating how much it's scorned. Watching anime past junior high school is much more derided (though the Western internet idea of otaku derision is way over exaggerated).
>>139357471
I was terrible at remembering kanji until I bought a bitlaser. Now the threat of the laser burning my eyes to a crisp keeps me working as hard as I can :^)
>>139357944
i mean im no expert so im not able to talk in depth but i was just thinking of some of the ones i remember like magiranger and dekaranger
i mean i know we live in a era now where it seems like nobody is growing up because franchises are lasting forever and growing up (arguably) with the audience still

> and think people who speak like anime characters in real life are painfully obvious (and oblivious)
I don't think DJT disagrees that many of those people exist. It just isn't something permanent, and it's not like you're gonna be stuck talking like an anime character even when you're N1 level. Who gives a shit if you embarrass yourself a couple times if you end up learning Japanese faster in the long run because of massive input.
Is there any online shop that let's your read shitty LNs on your PC with a dictionary?
I lost my way in internet and finally i found this thread, from japan
>>139358268
massive input if youre lucky and have good friends

It doesn't take luck to read a bunch of VNs and watch a bunch of anime
What method do you use to look up kanji when reading a physical book? I remember some guy shilling an app a while ago, that seems convenient.
>>139359468
Midori app works preatty well on ios.
>>139359053
Can you mail me an onahole in discrete packaging?
I found this app which seems decent, although it is surprising how many people complain about the stroke order. Do people not learn stroke order?

>shitting up a thread because free advertising is now gone
>>139360306
Did you know you can use bitcoins to buy your bitlasers? It's easier than ever to get your hands on their burning hot, blindness-inducing study aides.
>>139360306
More like that guy was getting annoyed over absolutely nothing out of random after half a year because he was looking for something else to whine about, so instead of getting what he wants, jokingly shilling the lasers becomes a meme ala scratching the doorknob.
You're barely shining the bitlaser here anon. Maybe if you tried one out, you'd see that it's an invaluable study tool part of any serious learners toolkit.
