Why learn so many kanji when not even Japanese know that much anyway? Learning the very basics is more than enough (1k - 2k). Who the hell even remembers over 40k kanji

So I used to hook VNs with TransAggregator and ITH but I recently made a fresh install of Windows 7 and I want to transition to chiitrans. Thing is, I can't dl Atlas anymore on the fujitsu site. If I download chiitrans, will it be included in the download? If not, is there a torrent or a mega link where I can download atlas?
What are some good relatively easy light novels that I could read on my phone without a text hooker? No philosophical stuff like 俺のラブコメヒロインはパンツがはけない please.
>>141720561
It's hard to give recommendations when we don't know what your level is. What LNs did you already read?
>>141720528
>atlas
The sooner you stop machine translating, the faster you will actually start learning the language.
>>141720561
Oreimo ;)
>>141720747
I just thought it was required for chiitrans to work. It's not like I'm gonna translate full sentences anyway, I just need the hooker to work as a dictionary.
>>141720848
chiitrans lite has built in dictionary and parsing, you only need atlas if you want to machine translate to english
>>141720934
Oh, fine then, thank you anon.
study hard today
The only thing you can do to fight laziness is form habits and just make the rational decision to do the goddamn work! Worst case scenario, you barely do any new anki cards and have to wait years before you're good. If you learn 5 kanji-vocabulary a day, you'll know 3,000 kanji in less than 2 years, and would have barely spent time studying. Obviously this is suboptimal but you can be a lazy shit and still do it.
Another thing would be to force yourself to read manga in Japanese. That's what I'm trying to do and it's ridiculously helpful. Reading practice is the most important thing to do while learning Japanese. If you do nothing but anki for 100 years you will never learn Japanese. Try reading a single chapter or something a day and build up as time goes on.
Do *not* rely on motivation. Just make a schedule and stick with it. If you can't do that, sorry, but you really can't learn Japanese.

pretty much. I've quit 3 or 4 times already.
Learning Japanese feels good. It makes me feel like I'm accomplishing something every day. Before I was goal- and dreamless, and was basically just consuming media every day for escapism, but now I have a purpose.
My dream is to become an eroge translator in the future.
>>141724147
That's what motivates me to keep going too, feels great having a goal, and feeling like you have a way to spend your time productively
I'm dabbling in doujinshi translating at the moment, feels good giving back to the community
How long has it been since you guys starting learning Japanese?
How proficient are you so far? What are some milestones that you've hit?
>>141720007
me too
>>141724302
Long enough ago that I should already know enough to do what I wanted to do with it when I set out but I've failed. On the positive side I've started up again and I'm having an easier time understanding the stuff I'm reading than In the past. So while it's still hard it's not as hard as it was. I can still learn it but is depressing thinking about all my previous failures.
>>141724302
291 days. Finished RTK1, Core6K, Yotsuba, can read (most of) Flyable Heart easily.
>>141724565
>RTK cucks biggest achievement is Flyable Heart
lol
>>141724302
Started mid-April last year. I can read a lot of Tweets, nhk easy news articles, things like Yotsuba, and I can carry on a conversation well enough. My listening is shit though. I'm not a neet unfortunately so I don't always have as much time as I want to study
I started learning Japanese because I wanted to read read untranslated doujins and watch unsubbed anime, but I don't even watch anime anymore. I just like the language. Reading and doing anki a little every day, even when I feel too tired or busy, has gotten me into good habits that go beyond studying Japanese.

What's the difference between 帰り and 帰る ?
You can't use 帰り alone in a sentence ?
Like 帰る means going home and you don't specify anything ( where/when ), meanwhile with 帰り you have to specify where/when ( after school, at 6 pm ).
More generally, how does a verbal noun work ?
>>141724302
Like 4 years probably, although my level of seriousness fluctuated a lot early on
Idk about milestones, everything's so slow that I never really realise when I improve in any significant way, I guess I can read pretty much any SoL with very little difficulty, just having to look up a word or two every now and then, I can watch SoL with japanese subtitles fine but without subtitles I miss some of the faster spoken shit, my listening comprehension is miles behind my reading
>>141724935
It works by READING MORE
>>141724935
The masu stem of a verb just turns that verb into a noun meaning the same shit, so you can use it as you would any noun
So you can use 帰り to talk about the act of returning for example, instead of talking about actually DOING the act
>>141724935
One is a verb, the other is a noun.
>>141725130
Thanks

Speaking of which, what is everyone working on reading currently?
Are you enjoying it? Learning a lot? Would you recommend it, and if so, to what skill level?
I'm aware we have a list for this, but active discussion isn't a bad thing, either.

The more you learn japanese the less you will want to do this shit, except if you crave for the attention.
>>141724302
Started in 2011, passed N2 in 2014, failed N1 in 2015 by 10 points.
Since I finished post-grad and started working I do not have time to study properly so my overall proficiency is not increasing much, apart from my reading speed.
>>141725832
I'm the first guy and I wasn't talking for free. As in, professional translator. Though I could see myself doing a fantl of something 2 hours long or so if it was something I wanted people to experience.
>>141725730
>I'm aware we have a list for this, but active discussion isn't a bad thing, either.
The reading list never gets any contributions anyway.
>>141725832
>The more you learn japanese the less you will want to do this shit
Why do you think that?
>>141725877
>professional eroge translator
There's no such thing, m8. The only company I'm aware of that ever dabbled in eroge translations dropped out of the "business" in 2008 (probably because it was unprofitable as fuck).

>The more you learn japanese the less you will want to do this shit, except if you crave for the attention.
Sounds more like you're just an arsehole and are projecting this trait onto others. Some people get a kick out of doing things others appreciate.
>>141725730
Reading 学戦都市アスタリスク vol 5. and playing Chaos;Head on the Vita (finished Steins;Gate 0 last December so I went and bought that)
Asterisk is easy for a light novel, so if you like the anime I recommend it.
>>141725877
Alright, the translation business does not seem to pay well so I wish you good luck.
>>141725945
Just my opinion but when you can actually enjoy things in Japanese it feels like a better use of time to continue doing that instead of translating stuff for a not so good community
>>141725730
Started kyonyuu fantasy after the discussion in /jp/
It's not boring me but the sex scene density is a bit too high. I'll probably just read the first one and then go back to focusing on anime. I downloaded the second lupin series to watch through (in addition of course to following ~5 shows this season)
>>141725993
MG, JAST. Though I'm guessing 5~ years down the line there will be more companies / the Japanese trying to localize stuff themselves without a 3rd party.
>>141725730
Reading Tonakoi. I'm not far enough in to recommend it, but it feels harder than Satsukoi. I've been on the same scene for 3 days. I recently doubled my daily Anki time and it is really burning me out. I need to cut back again.
>>141726388
More like in 5 years Japan will have cleansed itself of anime for the tokyo olympics
>>141724302
Started April 2012,
Passed N2 December 2014
Passed N1 December 2015
Reading VNs and LNs, playing japanese video games, no plans about going to japan, or actually interacting with japanese people.
>>141726388
MG doesn't even show up on VNDB, and JAST have hardly released anything in English. I know that the Steins;Gate translation that is attributed to them was actually a fan translation that JAST bought when it was very near completion.
It's pretty stupid to bet on getting a job in such a tiny industry, especially when you have no formal qualifications related to that field and no translating experience.
>>141726615
I'm not sure where you're getting 'betting' from, I just said it's a dream...
And you don't know what the future brings. I'm fairly optimistic, especially with Frontwing now setting a precedent.
>>141726274
>Just my opinion but when you can actually enjoy things in Japanese it feels like a better use of time to continue doing that instead of translating stuff for a not so good community
I've been enjoying things in Japanese for a long time and continue to do so all the time, I also enjoy providing fap material for other people to enjoy and seeing their happy comments of gratitude, if I spent years learning a skill why would I not want to use it for the good of a community that I feel close to and want to give back to

>>141725730
Reading baldr sky dive. It's awesome, I'm a sucker for those consciousness/AI/VR themes, and the minigames are also addicting.
Why has this dickhead stopped giving me stories? Don't tell me he only made 500 of them and decided to skip the rest and sell it as a book anyway.
>>141727461
You've been doing RTK without the pdf at the very least? You not only chose a terrible method, you also wasted your time welp.
>>141727408
That game is such a masterwork. All the routes are designed to tie together so perfectly that multiple brick shitting is guaranteed in the last route.
>>141727499
What pdf?
>>141727461
>>141727635
Did you even read the guide before you started doing this?
>>141727700
No, guides are for fags and losers.
>>141727726
This is incredibly low quality shitposting, but I'm going to respond here for other learner's reference anyways:
>>141727635
The PDF of the actual book. Reading the introduction, which explains how the method works, how the book is laid out and how to use it, is incredibly important.
It lays the out the foundation for learning using the RTK method, not just the 2000 something kanji found within RTK1, but also how to learn the 1000+ it is lacking when you encounter them "in the wild".
If you are planning on using RTK to learn, you'll need not only the anki deck but also the book (it introduces the radicals & the intro) and if you want, kanji.koohii community stories.
>>141727461
You should have used a deck like https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2077872612 that has the top 2 community stories from Kanji Koohii.
>>141727499
While I always recommend using the PDF along with the deck, it wouldn't solve this problem because he does stop having stories around 500.
>>141727140
>(I know, I know)
the fuck do you mean by that
The only people who care about JLPT are those who want jobs in japan and redditors
What's the general verdict on RTK 2?
>>141727950
Why's it lacking a 1000+ kanji?
>>141727976
When there are no better ways to objectively measure your Japanese skills it becomes the best way
>>141728131
You'll have to ask that one guy from yesterday because he's the only person who's ever used it.
>>141728180
Please go back to r.eddit.
>>141728160
It covers the jouyou kanji, but it is likely that you'll learn ~1000 more depending on what you read.
See >>141719199 it explains it in greater detail.
>>141728160
because >>141719199
>>141727976
>JLTP doesn't mean anything
I'm not sure if I like this this meme yet, could you post it again?
>>141728180
There are plenty of ways to objectively measure your Japanese skills. Are you able to watch anime raw? How many word lookups do you need to read an average NHK news article? Jcat?
JLPTs are not bad. It seems some people here have knee-jerk reactions to simply hearing that word, not sure why
>>141728330
Just because the first 2 or 3 are pointless
>>141728268
But that isn't what I said.
>>141728330
Obsessing over tests is bad, especially when they cost a decent chunk of money, give you no real benefit, and don't even test the most important parts of japanese ability for actual communication.
>>141728352
Well pointless for presenting as credentials maybe, but not for judging progress I think. If you happen to live close to a test site and want to take the N5 or N4 even just to confirm the level you you already know you are, I say go for it. It's a great confidence and motivation boost.
>>141728330
because they can't pirate it
>>141728461
If you need to take a test for """motivation,""" you probably aren't going to make it far in Japanese.
>>141728429
I don't think anyone is obsessing over it though
>>141727976
Even if you are not applying to jobs in Japan, it is often seen as a good sign by companies.
Non-NEETs should take the JLPT N2/N1 if they can, it should improve (even marginally) their attractivity in the global job market
>>141727976
The department gave me the impression that everyone cares about the JLPT
>>141728261
>>141728264
I don't get it. Why doesn't he just cover them anyway instead of being a lazy bum?
>>141728491
Where did I say I need to take a test for motivation?
>>141728501
The dude implied that it was a big deal that he hadn't taken the JLPT or something, and also that it's like the only way to know your level as if just engaging with japanese isn't enough to make it clear what your level is

Although to add onto that, the main criticism I have heard from my instructors is that it doesn't really see if understand Japanese, just if you "know" it, I.e. regurgitate the information with little context

Fair enough, again my main criticism was his assumption that we would give a shit that he hadn't taken the JLPT. I'll probably even take the N1 before I actually apply to jobs.
Back to >>141727140, tryng to apply JLPT levels to native material truly is reddit shit. Native material is by definition written for natives. The vast majority of it is going to contain some amount of N1 grammar and vocab, and a lot of slang that isn't covered in any N level.

The point was how fucking redundant a large portion of the core decks are and how much better your time would be spent if certain cards were removed or replaced.
No, I don't need to know learn what ハンバーガー or ヘビーメタル or any other loanword identical to its English counterpart, I could probably figure that out once I come across it.
No, you don't need 7 cards to tell me that slapping 真っ in front of a color means "pure"+color.
No, you don't need to waste a whole 'nother card on showing me the exact same word as the card before it, just with a に particle tacked on.
>>141729078
suspend the card and move on? It's exactly one keypress
>>141729078
>No, you don't need 7 cards to tell me that slapping 真っ in front of a color means "pure"+color.
真っ青（まっさお）
真っ赤（まっか）
真っ白（まっしろ）
2 out of 3 have irregular readings.
>>141729078
While it's true it's easy to figure out English loanwords, producing them would be another story. Not everyone here wants to speak / type in Japanese of course, but for those who do, it's useful.
It can help to think of them as not being English words at all, since some of them do end up kind of mangled anyways.
>>141728803
Is 人類は衰退しました good? I've been looking for more LNs to read other than キノの旅
>>141729124
wow back the fuck up, a simple and easy solution? those ain't accepted here
>>141729253
Basically loanwords are only worthwhile as production cards.
Of course wasei-eigo and ones that don't resemble english like アルバイト are fine as recognition
Any of you guys got any ideas for these kanji? I can't find them in a radical search on jisho so it makes me think they're chinese or something
>>141729289
How can you be aware of the existence of LNs and not know if that's good or who the author is? Of course, though if you aren't very good at Japanese don't bother, it'll go over your head.
>>141729407
I'd like to think I'm pretty good at this point, guess I'll test my abilities with it
>>141729395
Chinese simplified that is, they're all "chinese"
>>141728751
Fair enough, I personally don't have any desire to take the JLPT anytime soon, I just parroted what was told to me by instructors which, in retrospect, is a terrible idea
>>141729289
It's supposed to be quite good.
>>141729407
First time I've seen someone talk about HHD like some sort of flagship for LNs, is it that popular? I only ever see the anime mentioned on /a/
>>141729395
>>141729489
For future reference, you can use the word "hanzi" (literally: Han characters) to distinguish the Chinese writing system from kanji.
>>141729143
This is why I still use core at all
>>141729693
It's the first LN people mention as an example of one with literary merit and witty writing, rather than the heaps of generic and bland shovelware that plague the medium. It's not "popular" in the same sense that Utena isn't popular with the average shounen anime watcher.
>I only ever see the anime mentioned on /a/
It's untranslated.
>>141719199
>It's said that the average native adult know something in the range of 3000 to 4000 kanji
only 4000? really?
if so, that makes reaching something like 30k vocab sound significantly easier

Hanahira has no sexual content, whereas the Hanabira games do. So basically Hanahira is just a tame yuri SoL story whereas the Hanabira games are actual yuri eroge.

Why does typing こう and pressing space not give you any of the kanji that have こう as an onyomi
Fucking Microsoft
>>141733935
But why is Hanahira more popular? I find Hanabira has way better art.
>>141734050
Because it is the easiest VN to read and it is short.
>>141734050
It's not. Compare the number of votes:
https://vndb.org/v917
https://vndb.org/v5244
Hanahira is more popular HERE because it is really easy to read due to being a very simple SoL story.
>>141734120
>>141734132
But that brings me back to my original question; do they really differ in difficulty? Because it doesn't seem like it. Might as well rec the better game, no?
>>141734172
I guess the characters in Hanabira are more mature in personality and speak with more mature language. Or not, who knows. The reading list is neglected as fuck when it comes to easy VNs. Actually, it's neglected as fuck in general.
Would Nekopara be a good starting point for reading?
>>141734377
No.
>>141734172
>do they really differ in difficulty? Because it doesn't seem like it
What exactly are you basing this on? Have you read either one?
The Hanabira game that you linked takes a Japanese person about 15 hours to read. Hanahira takes 2 hours. Hanahira is 99% voiced with about 1 line of narration in the entire game. Hanabira looks like a normal VN so it probably has tons of narration, which is harder to read most of the time, and isn't voiced. And I would bet money that at least one character in Hanabira talks like an ojousama while the characters in Hanahira talk like children.

Wouldn't want it to be regular though

The "DJT" text should be bigger, to be honest.

Why is that J so long? Looks dumber

For some reason all the nice fonts have really long J's. I tried Noto Sans first and that was even longer which is why I didn't use it.

Holy crap, just stop. Why are you making such a big deal out of it?
DJT isn't a committee on forming OP images, although you wouldn't know it sometimes from looking.
I've been really proud of DJT lately for not getting pissy about people using different images, but what you're doing now is still just as bad.
Just stop putting so much importance on it. You're like those people that take a shitty "MS Paint meme" and turn it into some ebin vector art image that you can blow up to 5000x5000 to make it seem important.
>>141736903
なるほど！
>>141737199
Now that we're not constrained to a single OP image, there's a temptation to get carried away in wanting to come up with alternatives.
ごめん

These scenes were great, along with the chromosome study scene and the prisoner's dilemma. All science should be taught by cute vn girls.

Hack writers think talking about physics makes their stories DEEP.
>>141737387
You say that now until it gets out of hand and then we're back to where we were a month ago with everyone arguing over the image
Nip that shit in the bud now.
They're the ones who need to calm their boners down for OP images. Just make sure everyone stops treating it like something super important (like in this case, making small corrections to font and trivial shit like that)
and we won't have any problems.
>>141737519
I mean the only reason those arguments happened was because of you know who so it's hard to tell whether it would happen again if we kept fucking around with it

Lurk more, newfag. It's widely agreed to be one of the greatest vns ever written, a masterpiece that epitomises the beauty of the medium. Every true eroge fan should know it.
I guess this would be a good time to evacuate before spoilers.
>>141737815
Well whatever, I won't say anything then.
But I'm still betting it's best to just keep it low key.
I mean, at least if they were talking about adding additional information or changing something more meaningful.
But look at all 7 of the variations that have been posted. There's no significant change at all. Going on like that is just going to make the OP image come across to new users as some holy thing that needs intense amounts of deliberation and must have the perfect font, and even one that was intended as a joke (like in this case) has to be perfectly meticulously scrutinized, and shit like that.
But I'll just throw that out there and not say anything else about it.
>>141738307
Yup, run, no-one even bothers to use spoiler tags correctly anymore. I personally don't care since I think VNs are garbage for mentally stunted manchildren and don't read them, but I understand your feelings.

You might be onto something. Maybe it'd be for the best if the OP image were just something totally random that was up to the whims of whoever made the new thread, kind of like the Japanese threads on /int/. I mean, there's really no need for them to have any text at all since the OP pasta already says "Read the guide before asking questions".

>>141724302
A year ago, according to anki.
I'd say I'm intermediate, read a bunch of VNs and LNs and a fuck ton oflewdmanga.
The biggest milestone so far is finishing Bakemonogatari, I guess.
>>141739146
That's pretty impressive for a year in. Did you do vocab only study or kanji as well?

I like how non-LN books in Japan have anime covers.
I wish Western books had anime covers.
>>141739207
Oh, I mean the first 2 volumes titled "Bakemonogatari", not finishing the whole monagatari series, that would be crazy.
Only vocab, 6k and a mined deck.
>>141739642
I didn't mean Bake specifically, more the "bunch of VNs and LNs". A lot of people go through their first year and at most finish one or two things which are usually Flyable Heart and Yotsubato. So, props to you.
And cool about the vocab thing.
>>141724302
Inspired by this image, I started in 2012. I've given up many times since then for various reasons. The early attempts failed because I really had no idea what I was doing or what I was even supposed to be doing, while the more recent attempts failed because I tried to rush through everything and ended up overwhelmed.
I know kana, some common kanji, basic grammar and a thousand or so words, but that's as far as I've gotten because of my ignorance and/or stupidity.
I have nothing but 4 years of failure under my belt so far, but I really want to learn this language so I keep coming back to it. This time I'm trying to learn from my mistakes and takes things more slowly. Also, for the sake of variety, I'm trying new methods - instead of Tae Kim and vocab only, I'm reading Imabi and doing RTK.
