Every day I wake up and thank the universe for this.
You're over at your senpai's house, helping her with her homework, when she sighs, stretches and drains the last drops from her fourth beer of the evening.
>it's just...sometimes I feel very lonely, anon. Do you ever get lonely?
What do you do?
>>58770765
nah
>>58770814

Why do you help her homework when she is senior than you?
Asking again: I'm about halfway through pic related, it's such a beautiful novel. Are there similar books someone can recommend me?
Something similar to 雪国 is also nice. Thank you.

it's really creepy and pathetic to post pictures of a girl you don't even know personally
>>58770892
Well, she might be dumb anyway

>>58770912

俺の日本語を読むスピードを上げたいけどどうやってやれる?最近エロゲを読んでいるけどすぐに疲れてオナニする
I have a question to native English speakers
How are Japanese flags on /int/ good at speaking English compared with the other non-native English speakers?
Tell me the objective English level of Japanese on /int/

i agree. posting personal photos of some random girl constantly is very creepy.
>>58771056
many japanese people i know from int write well too, but they are not always posting in the thread. i know some who proxy post as other flags too. it is difficult to answer your question.
>>58771136
You say that Japanese English is not bat, don't you?
>>58771170
why is that cat dressed as a woman?
>>58770925
dumb girls are cute.
Want to have a sex with these dumb girls, but don't want to marry with them, because if I married, I would be annoyed by her dumbness.
>>58771221
there can be some good ones, sometimes
>>58771056
It's pretty bad, anon. I think we're subject to a bit of confirmation bias on this one though, since whenever Japs talk in terrible English, we take it as proof that they're can't speak English for shit, but whenever one talks in in fluent English, people tend to assume it's just an English teacher.
>>58771221
>bat
at least you are not someone who speaks English well
>>58771288
there was a super fluent japanese poster over the weekend, they confirmed for not being an english teacher iirc.
>>58771288
blame their terrible english education system
they really need to reform that

It's just a typo. You can't judge his English skill just by seeing typos.
>>58771288
>in in
but you don't speak English fluently either
>>58771170
What a fucking idiot, I hope basketball Americans gang rape her.
>>58771245
Depends on the level of dumbness, I think.
There's dumb and then there's retarded. And retarded girls simply kill my boner desu

nothing against posting public photos of people you don't know, but there's some level of creepiness to repeatedly post personal pictures of some random person.

Maybe there is a god after all.
>>58771470
That's literally what happened after that.
>>58771603
No, you're most definitely not the only one. She comes across as a complete fucktard to me.
I'd kick the shit out of her, then connect a car battery to her tits with nipple clamps.
>>58771603
I am the same. I don't think she is cute, because she has too big tits.
>>58771603
Are you a girl? That might explain it.

oh, that's very modest.
anything above a b cup doesn't fit into japanese clothes as easily, so i think that is the common size.
>>58772086
>>58771986
western vanity sizing is fucking ridiculous, don't even get me started. japan does not inflate their cup sizes as much as the west does. it got really bad over the past half decade.
>>58771986
Why did you overlook that he used "depend" not "depends"?
WHY
Why are you so tolerance?

Japanese men wear bras?

they wear them to feel supported. salarymen also get their nails done, because it's luxurious.

I highly recommend Thailand over Japan, if you want slutty, filthy, whore women who don't act like down's syndrome children, and will ride you like a bronco, instead of laying there like a sack of potatoes whilst making noises like a cat being raped.
I imagine Brazil is pretty good anyway though, when it comes to girls who know how to fuck properly.

I NEVER get it.

i don't see why you'd have to lie about it

>>58773491
chimpanzees speak English!?
I learned it for the first time
>>58773491
This
>>58773340
I tell them that I watch anime.
More importantly,
do Japanese become friends without talking about their hobbies whatsoever?
>>58773525
i think you just need to be confident, that's all
everyone knows i do nothing but play video games and sometimes watch anime but i don't act like a creep
if they make fun of you for whatever reason then you should probably cut all contact with them because they're not good people
besides, if they find out you lied and that you DO watch anime, what are you gonna look like to them?
>>58773385
Depends how thick their accent is. Sometimes yes, sometimes it's a bit of a struggle.
>>58773432

>>58773745
No, just the guy saying "bonfire".
Awesome band though.
>>58773745
I do not think that is Nigerian English, anon. Sounds more Jamaican to me. Nigerian English sounds more like this:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gp09Sdrw2W4
>>58773978
Yeah it's definitely Jamaican wogspeak.
>>58773958
what would happen is that they would start thinking about the reasons you were hiding it from them
it just looks much more suspicious

What does wogspeak mean?
Do all the kanji have this many meanings?
>>58774032
I understand what you are saying about, but watching anime is not regarded a decent hobby in Japan you know. That's why, there are many hidden otaku everywhere.
>>58774240
Those are different words, not different meanings
>>58774232
How black people talk. Wog = politically incorrect term for black people.
>>58774295
If you see those kanji combined you're not really gonna know what they mean even if you know their individual kanji
>>58774240
You know that "One" have many meanings in English, don't you?
>>58774337
>a black person
Rather.
>>58774232
"wog" is a mean word that people sometimes use to refer to black people.
It's short for "golliwog", which is the name for these type of dolls.
>>58774337
why do Australians call greek food wog food then?
>>58774337
>>58774403
But only in the UK, Americans don't use it, and Australians use it to describe Middle Easterners.
>>58774438
Dunno.

>>58774270
again, i think the secret is to act confident, don't act autistic and start telling them EVERYTHING you know about anime, i made that mistake too many times during my childhood
then again, maybe you're right, our cultures aren't exactly the same
>>58773765
let's hate someone together and become friends
>>58774493
If we don't tell them that it's mean, they might go up to black people in the street and call them "gorriwogs".
>>58774337
>>58774419
I get it
I get only duty words whenever I am on 4chan
>>58774575
No, we just tell them it's politically incorrect. That's far more truthful and still prevents them from calling a wog a wog.
>>58774575
>gorriwogs
But Japs are not white thus can get away with a bit of casual racism

what anime did you watch, and speak around to your friend? Dragon-ball Z is okay tier in Japan, but moe-anime such as CC sakura is absolutely not okay.
I love the fact anime isn't mainstream in Japan, yet so many weebs think it is. The streets of Tokyo must be awash with glorious tears, when they arrive and realise the truth.
>>58774873
are you the giraffe poster?
>>58775014
it was mostly video games, but i could NOT stop talking about them, even when people clearly looked disinterested, so people kind of thought i was a loser
as for anime it was mostly normalfag kind of stuff, the moe things never interested me because it's really all the same
though i DID watch cardcaptor sakura and discussed it with some people
>>58775144
Yeah, m8.
>>58775130
Well, anime (ghibli, anpanman, pokemon, etc) sure is mainstream.
While """""anime""""" that usually gets discussed in /a/, is not.
>>58774756
It's impossible if he completely hide anime stuff physically, but not all hidden otaku hide anime stuff completely. I once witnessed my friend listening an anime song in a train by headphone. I noticed it because the anime song was leaked outside, and I can even knew what anime song he listened at that time. I didn't tell him this though.
>>58775220
Yeah it's the /a/ stuff weebs are probably more into anyway.
>>58775220

Do you know how you can get the information in English in internet?
If you only speak Japanese, you can only get at most half of information on internet because most of information are written in English
I jealous you can enjoy internet in English

>>58775249
i'm into what weebs like and I even know that it's not mainstream in japan. what do I win
>>58775447
>French seems to so happy had changed black
What is the main verb in this sentence?
>>58775498
if you wrote all that on your own, you're probably better at english than most of the japanese population
keep that in mind and stay motivated
>>58775014
I think everyone around my age here knows CC Sakura.
>>58775498
use google translate?

You can just condemn normies to win

>be native english speaker
>don't grow up learning a cool foreign language while learning english effortlessly through TV and video games

Enough.
>>58775498
turn that envy into anger and then motivation to learn English
>>58775535
You win the prize of realistic expectation.

What if you guys (Japanese) tell people that you watch non-main stream Western animations, e.g. Power puff girls, Archer, My little pony, etc? Would people look down on you?
>>58775498
I went on 2ch once to see if they had an /int/ but I couldn't read any of the Japanese writing. I ended up just clicking random buttons to see what would happen.
I wonder if that's how monkeys feel during those lab tests - except waiting for food pellets instead of English writing.
>>58775623
It sounds like many japanese people...?
>>58775619
>I think everyone around my age here knows CC Sakura.
You surprised me. Is it subbed or dubbed? When you were a kid, was it considered okay to confess your friend that you watched CC sakura?
>>58775798
>You know what? I watch some exotic shit!
>The most usual reaction you can get : Ehhhhh For real? That's great! (Not interested at all actually)
>>58775787
Except for Philippines and Quebec they're all native. I'm not sure it really matters, unless you have a preference for which style you want to learn.
>>58775877
here it was dubbed and on TV too
>>58775787
there's almost 0 difference between canadian and american english
>>58775498
>If you only speak Japanese, you can only get at most half of information on internet
Stop talking baseless conjecture
>>58775903
hmm... What if you tell people that you (for example) watch the English dubbed version of Suzumiya Haruhi to learn English?
>>58775877
it was very popular in the 90s, dubbed.
i think it is ok to confess you like it (same with sailor moon), especially if you are a girl. it was one of the first shows i liked when i was little.
all my friends still like both of them.
>>58775574
>if you wrote all that on your own, you're probably better at english than most of the japanese population
Sadly, I used my English dictionary
I looked up which is correct, information or informations
>>58775620
yes of course
>>58775984
Ah so Japanese is a lot less than half.
>>58776003
>Ehhhhh For real? You're studying hard! (Not interested at all actually, already forgot some girl's name he pulled)
>>58776057
well, at least you formulated sentences that i understood, it's good enough for someone who's learning, i think

Yes, it was very popular.
When I was a kid, there was this "cartoon-time"- style program that was broadcasted around mid day which showed a lot of different animes/cartoons, and pretty much every kid watched it. DBZ, CC Sakura, Beyblade, Pokemon, Medabots (メダロット). All dubbed.

Maybe, people would treat me as a pedo, if I confessed that I watch these girly cartoons.
Internet is great because it enables me to keep my hobby hidden.

I think he just wanted to get popularity from otakus by saying so. Only otaku got excited but normal people didn't react so much, as far as I know.
This stuff is gold.

Is it more socially acceptable to say that you like AKB48 than to watch late-night anime?
This is more like what I was expecting.

Once I travelled non-English speaking country, people speak English with their accent.
I was relieved to know everyone has difficulty in pronunciation.
>>58776563
it's pretty hard to get rid of an accent
i managed to do it but i think it took a year of practice
i find that singing helps

>The health of Irish Travellers is significantly poorer than that of the general population in Ireland. This is evidenced in a 2007 report published in Ireland, which states that over half of Travellers do not live past the age of 39 years
>Some 10% of Traveller children die before their second birthday
>In addition, 80% of Travellers die before the age of 65.
This is not sugoi.
>>58776618
are you the pinoy?
>>58776529
It's your fortune and social status that make you socially acceptable.
Idolfags and animefags are usually getting mocked because they often have neither so they are considered """losers""" hobby

>This is not sugoi.
You've obviously never met travellers.
I've never seen that Irish posted ITT
British should invite them, I don't know what effect do they make though
Can you see the meanings? if you not, plz correct me

Shame ...

I think so. AKB48 are real girls, but anime are 2D girls that don't exist in real.
But interestingly, I heard that girls don't want her bf into idol group otaku (AKB48 otaku) than into anime otaku. I don't know why.
