just wen through 10 completely different uploads of the same scene, 9 from youtube and 1 from dailymotion
Without exception, only 2 were original encodes, or at least not blatant low bitrate recodes.
https://www.youtube.com/user/Dh4m13l/videos is the highest quality, but it's downright incomplete.
http://www.dailymotion.com/playlist/x1s0bw_Va-Pisoth_let-s-learn-japanese-vol-1/1#video=xm68p6 is where the remaining 8 uploads got their source material from. It's compressed differently than the above link, giving less blocking, but giving more ringing.

Is there a point in RTK if I'm not interested in production? Do I actually have to write shit on paper?
>>141423161
It's just a plain four-character compound - not streamlined enough to really imply a common occurrence. Now, if it were some compacted two-character compound with Chinese-style ordering, something like 衝車, that's the point where I'd think twice about setting foot in Japan. If it were a word made up of a single kokuji, I'd log into my investment account and make sure I'm not holding stock in any Japanese companies.

I'm not one of the ones who gave up on it. I feel like RTK actually benefited me, but people on DJT are so up their own ass about how RTK doesn't help them at all (when they're not posting about how 俺 and 日 are literally impossible to distinguish) that I try to be pragmatic about it. The reality is that most people who try RTK seem to hate it and give up to try other, more immediate methods.
RTK is shit. I cannot fathom why people still don't use the far superior KanjiDamage.

I did them all, it's strictly for basic Japanese. Covers maybe as much as Genki.
That said, it's pretty fun, gives you practice in everything and it's almost like having a proper teacher explaining things to you without having to go through the classroom cancer. The story itself is endearing.
I'd recommend the series for any beginner so they get a basic foundation in conjugations and grammar.

For newcomers, if in doubt, use the guide's advice as a fallback if you're genuinely not sure if it's "shitpost advice" or not.
For future reference (on how to tell if something is a shitpost):
>calls the community made guide/whatever method a piece of shit with no reasoning given why
>insults someone giving helpful advice with no reasoning given why
>attempts to create arguments over virtually nothing (eg opinions without facts -> x is better than y!!!)
>uses obtuse Japanese fragments interspersed with English to attempt bypass people trying to filter the shitposts
>any mention of anime being shit, or "real Japanese"
>spells it as romanji
It's pretty easy to tell at this point.

>>141424599
Piss deteriorates most bottles, plus they start to smell and discolor after a few fill cycle.

Drink them. They're good when fermented, and the bacteria that grows inside gives you valuable nutrients.
Why is it a bad idea to use romaji?
Do I really have to learn BOTH hiragana and katakana? I heard katakana wasn't used much.
For starters:
http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/grammar/writing
>there are multiple versions of systems trying to romanize Japanese, none are exactly the same
The word Rōmaji itself should be a big hint. That - above the o indicates a long vowel sound, but if you don't know the kana in words like that, it can be confusing how to ACTUALLY spell it. For words like 大きい - is it Oki? Ookii? Ôkî? Ōkī? Another problem with this ambiguity is that ji / di / chi / zu / dzu / du will confuse you, because they're not consistent at all. And yes, some words REQUIRE you to make the distinction.
Then we get into the homophones, without kanji you would have a hard time keeping all the kaerus apart. Hashi can be both bridge and chopsticks. Hell, even if you learned just the kana, reading kana alone is typically really difficult without kanji to help aid in context.
Authors will also change the "usual" way of writing something down at random - they use katakana on certain words for emphasis (similar to how English uses italics), or to help break up a long block of hiragana, making it easier to learn. What if an ESL told you they could only read lower case letters because they never bothered to learn the capitals? It doesn't make sense.
Don't use romaji as a crutch, it very well could create problems in the long run. There is a world of resources out there and you're limiting yourself from using some of the better ones if you don't learn to read properly in the first place; you're not -really- getting ahead like you think you are.
>>141424678
>I heard katakana wasn't used much.
It's not used much...relative to hiragana and kanji. It still shows up in nearly every sentence, retard.
>>141424617

Not everyone reads scifi and fantasy shit all the time, kiddo, that are full of basically English words in katakana.
In a real novel for adults, you can often go hundreds of pages before you see a foreign word written in kanas.
>>141424775
Read any news site, internet forum or basic conversational exchange between Japanese people and see how far you get without katakana.
>>141424775
Not learning 50 simple characters when you have to memorize 2000 kanji, often with different pronunciations, to reach a respectable level is retarded.

>Which order should I learn the Kanji in?
>I heard Japanese kids only do x amount per YEAR, so how can we learn so much all at once?
Japanese kids learn the 'most useful' kanji first, not the simplest one. For instance, compare these five kanji 叱 泊 雨 雲 曜. It seems rather obvious that the first two are simple. Indeed they don't have many strokes, and they're easy to remember. On the other hand, the last three, especially the third seems harder to remember and draw.
Now compare the approximate meaning of each : to scold, to stay overnight, rain, cloud, day of the week. While being easier to retain, the first two kanji relate to more complex ideas than the last three. Just look at the kanji for day of the week (○曜日), it really doesn't seem easy to write/remember. The complexity of a kanji doesn't necessarily relate to the idea behind it.
Yet, if you follow the way Japanese kids learn kanji, you'll learn 曜 way before 叱. But for kids, it's rather logical since they know what both words are, they only need kanji to write/read them. As an adult learning Japanese, you DON'T already know the words. However, being older, you posess abstract thinking abilities and therefore can use methods other than brute force repetition. This leads to far greater efficiency and far less frustration.
In conclusion, learning each kanji individually the way Japanese kids do it isn't a great idea overall. If you want to study kanji, either do it through Core / some form of vocabulary study, or go for a logical step progression method, like RTK, Kanji Damage or Kodansha's Learner Course.

Is Japan going downhill?
>Daily Japanese Thread DJT #1538
I'd like to remind everyone here on /a/ who hates generals that DJT's # is not inaccurate. DJT was literally one of the first generals to appear on /a/, even before generals were a thing. The desire to discuss a given subject over a long period of time in a central location -- this desire is what has made 4chan's love of generals today.
Is it good, or is it bad?
I'll let you be the judge of that.
And by the way, I was here on /a/ both before the DJTs started and during thread #1. Everyone hated the DJTs at first, and they were saged, spammed, reviled, and even moderated. Eventually, after an overwhelming consensus by a small few who would not stop posting it, everyone gave up.
And here we stand today, not only are the DJTs allowed, they are encouraged, and the exact opposite has come to fruition: Even though DJTs have nothing to do with /a/, you stand the risk of being banned if you stand out against them.

I'd consider them a problem if they were like other generals on /a/.
But outside of ironic "ankifu" posting, there's none of the waifu wars, autism, or fetishism that other generals experience as their fandoms begin to stagnate with ded series. There's still shitposting of course, but I don't think it's possible to escape from that no matter where you go on 4chan.
To be completely blunt, I honestly think that /djt/ covers one of the few subjects on this board that's relatively immune to that.

I was here shitposting the threads on day one, dude. The completely clueless idea of learning 5 kanji a day through RTK, it was laughable.
But after a few days I got bored, and then I came back a year or two later to find that the threads were no longer retarded crap parroted by people without a clue, but were reasonably competent and had the occasional bit of advice if you weren't posting like a complete retard.
But, like anything good, shitposters had to move in because I guess they get mad when anyone is actually trying to improve or a thread is relatively drama-free.

>The more accidents the more it gets reported the earlier it would be in core.
The occurrences of the word isn't indicative of the statistics of traffic accidents, you dumb fuck. A single article about a car crash can have dozens of usages of the word, even more if it is referencing another accident. You are fucking dumb, mate. When was the last time you read a newspaper? Things tend to get repeated, a lot.
Fuck off with your "muh autism" response. It has not become the stock "u 2" response by every braindead fucker who says something stupid and ends up being ridiculed for it.
>I'll give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you're not the same guy but just throwing in your opinion, which I suppose isn't wrong, just misplaced.
Yeah, this mindset is more systematic of Autism Spectrum disorder than most of the shit in this thread, you oblivious manchild.
>>141427932
I'm not him.
It's not common day to day vocab, but it is extremely common in newspapers anywhere in the world, hence it appears in core early (which is based on newspaper vocab). That doesn't mean accidents happen often. Japan is a pretty safe country.

>>141428253
>and then you realize it's just a patchwork of half-sentences thrown together

Would the word appear more or less often in core if it derived its words from a newspaper reporting an above average amount of accidents or reporting the regular amount of accidents?

>this desire is what has made 4chan's love of generals today.
There is a reason why prior to 2007 and the second eternal september, that shit like generals would not have come to light.
The reason why generals exist now is that during 2007 and 2008, 4chan was absolutely fucking devastated by the flood out normalfags who came in here like a zerg rush wanting to see the hip new "edgy" site that was all over the news.
>And here we stand today, not only are the DJTs allowed, they are encouraged
No. Mods gave up and the redditor continued to make the thread, then when he fucked of the autists who had made this place their home, were compelled to keep it going out of routine. The only reason why mods haven't removed generals is that they are too lazy to deal with the backlash that always happens every time they take against against the whim of the insufferable manchildren who have colonised this site. There are too many of them and too few mods to fight the tide.
>Even though DJTs have nothing to do with /a/, you stand the risk of being banned if you stand out against them.
Mods don't give a shit about this thread. You're sooner able to spam CP in here and get away with it than on the rest of /a/. Don't take lack of care as moral support. Mods don't want you here, neither does the rest of the site. The only people who want to defend generals are the cancerous spergs who have locked themselves away in them 24/7, keeping each thread alive as long as possible regardless of lack of discussion.
You're lucky Hiro cares more about getting data than what m00t cared about because while m00t was a lazy incompetent prick, Hiro knows how to run these sites and has had great financial success with them. If Hiro hated the concept of generals on 4chan as much as m00t did, these threads and every other general on /a/ would be gone, so consider yourself lucky for the moment that mods are too fucking lazy to act and that admin doesn't give a shit.
You are cancer.

The word is still in use, though not common. Comparing WWWJDIC frequency counts:
妻: 295k
奥さん: 132k
奥様/奥さま: 58k
家内: 27k
WWWJDIC doesn't even flag it as sensitive.
Either way, this word is worth including in a core list unless you you take your SJW'ing so seriously that that you'd intentionally leave it out in an attempt to "reform" the Japanese language by depriving gaijin students of the ability to understand words that you consider non-PC.
I am learning Japanese so I can read lots of visual novels and light novels in a few years. I love visual novels and light novels, as well as anime and manga. I hope I can become good at it so I can eventually read at a quick pace and without much trouble. Ganbare, me!

From the Anki startup guide:
>Some people like doing new cards separate from reviews since it makes both easier and lets you focus on them individually. If you want to do this, just set new cards per day to 0 before doing reviews, do your reviews, then set new cards to however many new cards you want to do that day.
This is bullshit. I started doing this a few days ago and my retention of new cards has dropped like a rock. Interspersing your new cards among your young and mature cards is much easier since you can tackle them one at a time that way instead of having to face a huge chunk of new words one after the other.
Do you guys do sentences in Anki too? So far I'm only doing vocab recognition in it, and was wondering if I should add sentences or just get my practice reading actual material.
>The character for stop is easiest to learn as a pictograph, though you have to take a moment to see it. Take it as a rather crude drawing of a footprint: the first 3 strokes represent the front of the foot and the last the heel.

I had the opposite experience. I would get a shitload of new cards up front that would drain all my mental energy and make me miss a lot of cards I shouldn't have. Spacing them out a little has helped a lot with my retention.
>>141431580
What worked for me was doing new cards first instead of last.
>>141431792
If you're going to do sentences at all, then you'd better do them in Anki. With apps that actually check your answers, your reps will turn into living hell as you acquire vocab and style.
That said, sentences are a problem because you end up basing your answers on stuff like the layout of the words on the card, thus acquiring and strengthening knowledge that's literally useless outside of Anki.
>>141433747
>If you're going to do sentences at all, then you'd better do them in Anki.
wrong, you use supermemo for sentences
>>141434207
This is the first time i've heard about supermemo. Can you explain why it's better than anki for sentences?
>>141434330
the tldr is that it was designed while being conscious of things that don't fall into the ideal "keyword, definition" flashcard format, including passages of text
anki is just a fixed up clone of a really old supermemo version, and it's great for things that are actually reasonable to memorize
>>141434410
Then wouldn't it suffer from the same problem as Anki?
At least for me, having a proper sentence as the question makes me memorize all the wrong things - nailing the answer based on the length, some words in the beginning and other irrelevant cues. Even if I make a conscious effort to read the text, it's already ogre by that time since I know the answer.
I don't see a way around this - even if you play around with the fonts, you can still nail the sentence after the first few words, like slapping a karuta card with only a few syllables having been uttered.
>>141434674
>Then wouldn't it suffer from the same problem as Anki?
it suffers from the same fundamental problems like you listed, but it's very different from anki at this point so it'll have fewer scheduling related problems
for example supermemo lets you soft-lapse cards instead of having to explicitly choose a single lapse interval modifier for your entire deck
Does the end of the phrase means that she woke up to not wake up ?
>>141435013
She wants to wake her up but she just can't get herself to do it.
That's why you buy Nike bedsheets.
>>141435234
Thank you
>Nike bedsheets
wut
>>141435013
it means shes struggling with life choices such as getting that moe bitch outta her bed because her 顔 is even more 幸せそう than さっき
are you sure you should even be reading such complex visual games? wouldnt you be better off starting with something easier like muramasa?
>>141434762
So it would be a better optimized way to waste one's time on memorizing the layouts of question cards.
It's like those shitty audio samples where you key know answer before the person starts talking because you recognize the buzzing or hissing in the background. You're not learning to answer the questions, you're learning to answer a particular presentation of the questions.

Is the Rikaisama audio clip for this fucked up for anyone else? When I play the audio, I get 「こう・おん」.
(if you don't know how to play audio with rikaisama, you just hover over a word and press "f")

Actually, now that I listen again, I guess it's more like 「こ・うん」.

What's the difference between 減らす and 減る btw?They have the exact same backside and are both just 'verbs' in anki
>>141436166
First is transitive, second is intransitive.
http://www.imabi.net/l50transitivity.htm
>>141436166
減らす is transitive
I decreased the amount of dicks in my mouth (you acted upon the object)
減る is intransitive
The amount of dicks in my mouth decreased (something happened to the object on it's own)
You can generally tell the difference between transitive / intransitive pairs because the transitive one usually ends with す (回る、回す etc)
Google it for more information, it took me a decade to understand transitivity shit even though it's piss easy
>>141436310
す-verbs are the most regular verbs in all of japanese
ichidan verbs have causative/passive ambiguity and all other godan verbs do weird shit in front of the past tense
す verbs are perfect. す verbs are standard.
死にます
死んだ
出します
出した
etc
>>141436296
>>141436310
I think your explanation made it click for me. Basically, the -su guys are used when it's someone doing something, and the other is used when it happens by itself.
>>141436310
>>141436412
As a quick follow up, in the intransitive one anki uses this example sentence:
次の駅で降ります。
But isn't this the transitive use of it? If not, why not?
>>141436412
Yes.
"someone opened the window" vs. "the window opened"
It can be kind of difficult to get used to since, as you can see from the above example, a lot of verbs (maybe all of them?) in English can be transitive AND intransitive depending on how you use them.
>>141436412
Yeah pretty much, but they don't always end with す that's just sort of a general rule, you can also tell which is which by whether が or を is used with it but that also depends on what kind of verb it is and shit
>>141436565
Nothing's being acted on, the train's just going to the next station on it's own, so it's intrans, if the focus was the train driver then you could have it transitive I guess
Idk I'm not like 100% sure about how it all works myself really
Are you sure it's not the nipple that stands out, anki?
>>141436863
I could think of something else that 出るs and feels a lot better
>>141436897
I'd rather it 入る personally
>>141436863
What's the point in using という here?
>>141437081
It's a sort of nominalizer, like の or こと, but generally used for more abstract shit like thoughts or opinions
>>141437081
you know "that" from "he said that he'd give me candy"

anyone whos seen a real boob in their life wouldnt be fooled
I did it, I finally did it. 6000 word core deck with kana keys, it took me 15 months to flip through every card. I still have a few leeches, and some cards were stupid, so I skipped them. Also I have another deck, which is even bigger. I expect to finish that one in another 2 years or so.
>>141437411
That's precisely because of my neighbor that I was fooled
>>141437411
どこにいるってを思う、お前?
>>141437438
So you didn't even manage 15 words a day?
>>141437438
Wish my correct percentages looked like that, guess core words are easier to remember though
>>141437496
Yes, I was doing 12 words per day for the last few months to keep the number of repeats approximately constant. Keep in mind that I was studying with kana keys which makes it much harder to remember which word it is. For example there were 3 words for こうてい and I had to recall all of them.
Also I have another deck for kanji-reading which is another 15 words per day (but with kanji it's a lot easier).

>>141437631
>kana keys
why
>>141438207
Make a bunch of your own sentences using those grammar constructions if they're giving you that much hassle
>>141438207
just skip it and dont worry about it you have fat vocab decks to get through
>>141437438
Nice job anon.
>>141438543
That's terrible advice, vocabulary is useless if you don't even have a grasp of the most basic grammar
Although it's true that he shouldn't really have been stuck on that for 2 months
>>141438207
It's literally four vocab words
けど = but
から = from
のに = even
なの =, I tell ya what.
おはようおにいちゃん
あおいそらだよ

>>141438407
Because when you're watching Mongolian moving pictures, they don't show you which kanji the characters say. If you can't recall a word from kana only, there's no hope for you to recognize it when it's spoken.
>mfw i didn't know you were supposed to do vocab decks AFTER finishing tae kim, not before
fuck. but hey now i can finally read along with the speakers
>>141438805
Are you retarded? You aren't supposed to do anything like that. You start vocab and grammar at the same time.
>>141438805
I've just been making flash cards for all the new vocab in each section, am I doing it wrong?
>>141438841
really? i was doing that the whole time but i assumed you were supposed to do it all after because i couldn't understand what was going on in the example sentences. alright then cool

Does anybody recommend studying Jap for college.
Been unemployed for a year now since graduating with a shit degree. I'm seriously considering Jap if the social welfare in my country can cover everything including accomadation. It's a 4yr course and I'm seriously thinking about it.
Can someone tell me if it's worth putting 4yrs of my life in college again.
Why aren't there Daily Russian/French/Germany thread on /a/?

>>141440593

>>141440586
No, not even slightly. I can't think of any countries that will pay for you to go to school for an extra 8 fucking years, you get one free lunch.
In 4 years, a course will get you to the same level that even mild self-study will achieve in 2. Step it up to moderate and you can get there in 1.

Well not really a meme from my point of view because I know someone from personal experience.
I joined in Jap class a year late when I was in secondary school and one of the lad that did it went on to choose to do a 4yr Bachelor in Jap in DCU (Dublin college in Ireland) with an erasmus to Japanland in the 3rd year. Even has a Nip gf now from looking at his fb and I bet he's completely fluent in it by now, living the dream in Japan and everything.
It's even worse for me doing a degree because I'm a poorfag and decided to cheap out by staying in my hometown doing a useless shitty degree.
I guess you're all right though, NEET's like ourselves won't last through 4yrs of hell again before commiting seppuku.

I know what という does, but the の nominaliser is used after it here, which I would've thought rendered one or the other redundant.

I'm pretty sure nearly every beginner did this at first before it was stated explicitly in the guide. がんばって!
And if you can't manage the backlog all at once, just set the review limit back down to something manageable that will let you work it down over a few days. Then set it back up to 9999.
>>141441904
It is redundant, but it's not incorrect. It's basically a longer form of the の nominalizer.

I started over 3 years ago and now I'm able to read VNs pretty well without a text hooker and listen to Drama CDs without any translations and still know what's going on. Honestly the biggest thing is to study and use the language every day without stopping.
Can someone explain what Kanji is?
I'm going through the anki deck and getting confused.
I keep seeing all these hiragana and katakana at the top. I don't really need to remember all that do I?
>>141441967
>korean rapping in japanese fluently
何
>>141442773
The katakana is it's on-yomi or chinese readings, for use in words like 明朗, which are usually nouns and are made up of multiple kanji
The hiragana is it's kun-yomi, japanese readings, for words like 明るい、明ける etc
You don't need to remember them in a kanji only deck, that's what vocabulary is for, kanji study is specifically so you can remember what the kanji generally means, in the case of 明 that would be something like "bright", indicating the vocab that kanji is used in are generally going to represent shit to do with being bright, but it doesn't go into the specifics of any of the actual vocabulary
>>141442773
why learning kanji by themselves is shit, exhibit A (assuming this isn't bait, that is)
I guess you may not have realized this, but even words written in kanji have to have sounds (or nobody would be able to communicate except through writing). Most kanji have multiple sounds, or possible "readings". That card lists first the 音読み(reading approximated from Chinese at the time it was introduced, usually used in kanji compounds) in katakana, and 訓読み(reading of the native Japanese word(s) assigned to that kanji) in hiragana - the "." denoting where the 送り仮名 starts.
For example, 明 is prononced メイ in 説明, and 明るい is pronounced あかるい
Now go read the guide, download a vocab deck, and stop making yourself look like a retard.
>>141442773
Kanji is the most difficult system in the world, with one pictogram for every concept ever conceived by man, plus half that many redundancies. You need to have a professorate-level education in Japanese to even understand the radicals and advanced meanings; native jap speakers can get by with rote repetitions thanks to their brains which have been folded over a thousand times. Most linguists in other parts of the world consider it impossible for non-Asians to learn Japanese, this has been confirmed in numerous studies, it is a widely held and regarded opinion even among the general populous. It takes 30 years for most people to even memorize the hiriganas and katakanas; the building blocks that kanjis are made from.
>>141442773
There are more readings for a single japanese kanji than there are nucleic acids in human DNA
>>141442773
>I don't really need to remember all that do I?
No, you don't, which is why doing kanji decks is pantsu on head retarded.
You will learn the readings when you learn words which use the characters. Trying to drill every possible reading into your head using a deck like the one you are is not only extremely inefficient, but also practically useless since you can't even know which reading a word takes without looking it up anyway.

Except those words don't mean "at least" exactly like in English, you will never learn the full nuance of any word just by doing anki. Anki is a good method to speed up reading, but nothing more.
Yeah pictures are a very good way to learn you should add them to your production deck. Very good methods should be used together.
I don't even do anki anymore so I don't think you can talk about placebo here, boy. Anki is placebo mode by definition, it doesn't get better if you make it harder by doing production.

You only need to remember 2 readings: "mei" for Onyomi and "a" for Kunyomi. There are exceptions but they are similar to these two and better remembered individually. Your deck sucks because it doesn't filter out readings that never even occur in normal text.

how to stop thinking of english meanings of words when learning jap ones?
Does watching Japanese anime to learn Japanese actually work? How about video games? I know like 20 kanji
I'm constantly scared that I don't know even the most basic Japanese and have deluded myself into thinking I know what anything means. Almost as if I am inventing a new language. Anybody else think this?
>>141456651
kinda yeah

>>141457493
Im trying to get more into writing, and I do a bunch of doodles of anime girls at school. But outside of that realm, Im a /sci/ guy. Dont even like science fiction, just like reading straight up science; how things work. Planning on becoming an engineer. Ive seen around 100 anime though.
>>141457503
At first, I thought I got to get rid of my restrictions, and be with the first girl I like. And I did end up with some girls, and we ended up liking each other, but then some time passes, and I realize, this isn't who I want to be with. And Ive already been with two science girls.
Actually, Ive tried to interact with multiple art girls, and, Im really bad at it. they were not interested in me at all.
Lots of people say you got to go with the flow. That is not me, I know what I want, and I will take it. I just got to go around a japanese college, or the streets, and search for some japanese girl drawing in a sketchpad, and when I do find one, I make my move! Never give up.
>>141457738
>just like reading straight up science; how things work
That's stupid.
>>141457738
honestly the idea of finding 1 partner is completely foolish you should just stick your dick in as much shit as possible and hang out with people while its still fun and interesting and as soon as that changes immediately move on

>>141457823
>christfags enjoying fiction
The entire point of being a christfag is that they don't think it's fiction and take it life or death seriously. They don't enjoy it, that's why the term is "god fearing", not "god enjoying".

>>141457945
Yeah, no they don't anon. Things you enjoy aren't done out of fear and compulsion. Drunks often rationalise their drinking in the same way, stating it is "enjoyable".
You reckon they'd pray and partake in ritualistic meetings and fallow certain arbitrary religious guidelines if "hell" didn't exist? Christianity, well, all three of those middle eastern tribal cults, are born out of fear and control. People don't "become" a part of said religion unless they buy into the fear of eternal punishment. Abrahamic religious types in the west are just a hell of a lot less dishonest about their existential cognitive dissonance than those in more sand nigger or SEA monkey located regions. Americans worship their religion in the same way they worship their politics: fear of the other.
>>141458046
That's about right and even if you have the ability you need to activate if first by watching a lot of animations

Did anyone else become more of an asshole as you got better at Japanese? I think it gave me a superiority complex, or maybe I had one all along and it made it worse, and now I can't help but consider people who don't know any Japanese as some kind of inferior lifeform even though I don't want to.
