Could someone learn enough Japanese to play Persona 5 when it gets released in September?
yes if you studied every day for hours
Grammar, yes.
Runes, no.
The short answer: No.
Slightly longer answer: Assuming you dropped everything else in your life and learned nothing but vocab/speech...probably still not. No way in hell you're learning the required kanji needed to be considered literate in that timespan.
>learn nip
>no one speaks it besides nips
>nips hate non-nips speaking nip
>they especially hate it when you take an interest in "their" hobbies
>and they really fucking hate it when you go to nipland
>yet every day, thousands of white teenagers start trying to learn nip-o-nese
Why bother with them? The Japanese are a terminally autistic people. In 100 years no one will speak Japanese at all, and that's for the best.

>>337299539
you could try.
worst case scenario of doing so is that you did something productive with your life.
>>337299539
no, unless you are a genius with an IQ above 170, but if that were the case, you will realize that persona games are garbage and japanese is a really useless language and its not worth to learn to play videogames and read comics.

Completely false, my step brother is married lives in Japan as an English teacher. They love it when gaijins take interest in their culture. As long as you're not a fat smelly unlikable weab they wont hate you.

Persona dubs are always top class, when they're not switching around fucking voice actors that is.
Where's her ass crack?
Surely it will have dual audio and you won't need to. They wouldn't release it with only a dub, would they?
>>337301182

>>337300240
lol, I got access to an old traditional hotel's public bath for free while I was staying there because the old woman owner was happy that I spoke a little Japanese.
Check your facts desu~
>>337300240
Yea not really especially in the cities. A foreigner who can speak the language is entertaining to them and if you take an interest in learning how to behave how they see as polite they will forgive social faux paux.

>>337301585
Well sure, they have major population issues, but they're not at risk of total extinction, just decline. They can recover.
It's not like many European countries where rampant immigration has already doomed them completely.
I think the real question is how long will it take for the script to translated by fans. A week? Two? Would it be worth it to import a copy and just hope fans translate it faster then the localized release?
can someone fill me in on this?
Are they not dubbing at all?

>>337300240
Actual Ken-sama found.
>>337301125
Not sure if it's similar in Chinese but in Japanese it's usually not enough to just recognize the character. Knowing the pronunciations and meanings when combined with other kanji is usually necessary in order to really know it.

Probably just lower frame rate and resolution, which I could give fuck all about as long as the game is intact. Since it started development on PS3, I'm sure it will look decent.
>>337301725
People don't like the dubs as they are low quality and the games often don't include dual audio. Also people wanna play it on release in Japan to avoid spoilers.
>>337300240
all the nips I encountered in my life were generally nice and encouraged my nip-learning pursuits, even encouraged me to travel to japan.
I learned most of the japanese I from living in a jap neighborhood and being "that white kid that dropped out of school to read manga" so there was definitely a pity factor.
>>337302054
You still don't know moon though
>>337300994
Japan doesn't have a mass immigrant population to mask their post respective baby boomer generation so it looks like "oh japan are giving up on opposite sex" when it's really just "people are having less kids".
Because of this the population is currently skewed more towards elders but plenty of children are still being born. Comparatively to other nation's natives, it's higher than most even. They just don't have the same immigration count most western countries do due to all their restrictions to live there.
I know I'm going to try

A lot of people in Japan told me the same thing. They were impressed when they saw me reading novels and manga and surprised when I said I have trouble with speaking and listening.

This seems like stuff you do after learning the basics. My problem is that I have no teacher or anything so I'm not %100 sure I'm doing it right and learning alone gets kind of dull.

Fucking this. Japs got it right by not accommodating for them either like we do in America for Spanish speakers too. Nowadays the fuckers have grown ass kids/translators that speak perfect English yet they've been in the country just as long and still won't bother learning to speak the language themselves.
>>337303954
Doing it alone is hard as fuck, but doable. It's what I did.
It's all about having the right materials and having a set plan. After that, you just need to go at it every day.

God-bless America where shit like this could never happen. Every-man is born equal and "progressive" countries in Europe have finally been ousted as clasist shitholes. If every mexican was allowed into the United States at once (and I mean every single one) nothing would happen. The economy would destabilize for a few years but after that it would be back to normal. You europoors can't even handle an influx of a couple million. In the states we get 5 times that every year in illegal immigrants and we barely complain about it.
Granted the American infrastructure and real-estate industry has been shaped by mass-consumerism, and because of that we are much more fit to handle 10-20 million people all moving into one small area, but that is still no excuse for the laziness and overall racism presented by the European government and its people. Go ahead and keep complaining about the in all the boards, especially /int/. But when your confederacy starts to crumble from such an insignificant incident and you come running to America for asylum I hope you personally don't get a green card.

Many universities in Japan have semester/year long intensive language programs. You can go to these and learn a lot. I went from not a word to JLPT N2 in a little over a year.
Then they gave me a recomendation to a Japanese Grad school, and here I am.
Is it possible to learn enough Japanese to play Youkai Watch 3 by the time it would arrive in August? I have nothing better to do this summer, so I might as well learn something.

Yeah your speaking and listening would improve greatly if you stayed there. I went from not being confident in either of those categories to talking with everybody and hanging out all the time. It was great, and it was only just a lil under two months.
If you stayed there for a year or so you'd come out a champ.

>>337305970
>My japanese friend says I would learn Japanese really fast if I go live there for a while, but I wanna learn something before that.
This applies to any language. Studying on your own or in a classroom is always good, but nothing will compare to the pace at which you'll learn from just living in the country and immersing yourself in the language.
>>337306559

As someone who lived in Japan for several years, I can confirm this is the absolute opposite of true. Japs get giddy about whitey trying to speak japanese. Even if all you do is say things like arigato and hai at a restaurant they fucking love it.

replying to low-grade bait, but languages take hundreds of years to die. you're not going to outlive Japanese. you gotta be pretty retarded to learn a language based off of perceived growth/decline as opposed to the satisfaction you will get out of it in life.

Thats nice to know, but what he meant is that I would be more exposed to the language everyday, reading around, listening to people talk and stuff.
I plan to go one day but as I cant leave my job right now I'm trying to learn by myself.

...What? Well, if you're asking what I think you're asking, the easiest way to get here is to just do the whole English teaching thing. Then, after a year or two, leave that shit industry and do what you want.
It's coming out in the US dude.
Persona Q and P4DAN are low-cost games that didn't exactly require top tier voice talent, because they were made on a budget. Persona 5 will doubtlessly have a higher quality talent pool to work with besides Ashley Burch.
And if it DOES have a shit voice cast, and you REALLY want to play it with Japanese voices, just undub the PS3 version.
>>337306953

It is very easy to get into an English bubble in Japan, especially in a big city like Tokyo.
Language school gives you a visa and keeps you on point.

You just need a bachelor's degree of any kind. That's it, really. And you need to be a native speaker, of course.
Some schools are much more lenient than others, and some are more strict. It just depends. Try to get into one of the lesser-known schools because the big name schools treat you like shit since you're expendable.
>>337306579

Especially Americans/Brits/Germans/Swedes etc. are terrible.
Recently there have even been complains about them being loud at night at my accomodation house. Presumably from Japanese families living nearby. And I used to think all Japanese are passive-agressive cucks that would actually take action.

>>337307693
From the stories I've read and heard, there really isn't that much amount of micro racism or shit given to you as there used to be a few years back besides the occasionally kid or old guy trying to get on your nerves.
>>337307479
>By the way, a question. How did the japanese people treat you there along the years? That is, if you are not japanese yourself.
If you act like a weird sperg, they'll treat you like one. If you act like a person with social skills, they'll treat you like one.
For example, I read a lot of manga and play a lot of video games, but I never really talk about it unless somebody brings it up. Then, I just tell them what I like and talk to it if they're into it, too. If not, I leave it at that. You know, basic social skills. Just don't act like an embarrassment.
Any sort of story you hear about foreigners in Japan, whether it's good or bad, is almost always exaggerated. Don't believe it.
>>337308110
It isn't racism. It is the fact that English teachers are a dime a dozen in Japan. If you wont put up with their shit, someone else will.
There are way better options for careers than an English teacher.
Just watch GameCenterCX day and night and you're all set
>SHIMATAAAA
>>337308110
There really isn't any hatred or racism unless you bring it on yourself. Literally the only form of racism I saw there was in one of those shady places in Kabukicho that said "Japanese only!" on the door. Other than that, people were excited to see a black dude actually speaking their language. And the people at my job were hype to see the other US team members trying to learn words.
One guy almost lost his shit when I asked him for directions on the JR Line.
>>337308326

That's why I said to work for a small school that's not a chain company. They are much more relaxed, have a much easier work schedule, are more friendly, etc. You know, those schools that are in the countryside and are managed by some 60 year old grandma who lives in America when she was younger but doesn't want to do the teaching herself.
>>337308541
I couldn't put enough quotes around the word "speak" so I didn't even bother
>>337300240
If you can actually make a relationship with a Japanese-speaking person, you suddenly have a reason to learn the language, and someone to practice it with.

>top kek m8ster, depending on the school they have to pass specific exams or be high level kentei
Perhaps schools with such high-level requirements do exist, but JET doesn't ask you for anything like that, you clueless retard. And what do you think most people use?
>>337306443
anyone?
>>337308884
Do it if you want but I doubt you will learn the language just for one game. That's not enough motivation for anything.
>>337299992
You can always just play with a translator on your computer next to you. Or using googletranslate on mobile and puzzle it out from machine translation. Yarxi is a good dictionary program on pc\ios\android, I recommend.

Eh, that is pretty much how it works everywhere.
I ask because yes, I heard some stories about xenophobic Japanese people.
I'm extremely respectful toward people in general so I dont wanna end up in a "white piggu go homu" kind of situation when I dont deserve it.
>>337309190
You're still a clueless retard that makes a generalized statements based on his personal anecdote.
Learn what JET is, learn how easy it is for any faggot clapper to get to Japan and then realize noone cares about your Kyuushuu.
>>337300240
Because they are terminally autistic people, and it's fun.

lmao

Shut the fuck up Onsokumaru
>>337306626
you teach english too? First year ALT on the JET program reporting in. I am hoping to use this as a bridge to get into the Japanese gaming industry. If that fails, going into the entertainment industry as tarento could be fun.
>>337305203
It's too bad they don't really have a very extensive culture to be interested in since it stems from and is a smorgasbord of various other eastern cultures.
>>337301436
Japanese schoolgirls won't reject me! NIHON NI IKIMASU!
>>337309468
Are you for real, lol
Why would I care about whatever the fuck you faggots need to do to teach half-assed English?
But given what you're saying, man, no wonder mainland high school fags has really low english speaking in comparison to the south, not worse than Hokkaido though, still.
>>337309610
As in he was impressed, made me sit down with him all the way to Shinagawa and then started asking me how I learned, etc. Then he saw me texting some girls on my phone and kept saying I'm flirting with them and if I liked Japanese girls.
Was a pretty fun train ride.
>>337309458
There are xenophobes in every country, nothing out of the ordinary. An old spanish woman looked at me like if I was going to murder her one time while I was shopping in a supermarket in Spain during a vacation. In another case I was asking for directions from some old guy who was the only person around and he ignored me until I spoke in English.
>>337301436
Thanks, based Japanese Man Futa!
>>337309190
Most schools don't hire many english teachers as full time teachers. Most are just ALT, pretty much just a native speaker so they can say they have one.
Considering most of the people in this thread can't even read kana but want to teach english in Japan, the best they could hope for is an ALT position.
>>337309809
Some Japanese guy asked me for directions once.
I was looking down at my cell so he couldn't see my face. When I looked up and gave him proper directions, the look of shock on his face was pretty great.

How did the japanese girls treat you there?
One of my life goals is to find myself a cute japanese wife!

If you're at the college age, try finding a college with a lot of foreign exchange students. You might meet a real life waifu.
As a person that "jerks off to loli," I find it quite interesting that you think that is just as bad as molesting actual children. And here I thought I was doing a good thing by avoiding kids... but thanks for suggesting otherwise. I guess it won't make any difference if I switch to real kids then, right? Fortunately, I'm not stupid enough to think that, but that IS what you are suggesting!
>>337310041
Pretty well. A few girls liked me in my job but I only went on multiple dates with one of them, who told me she really wanted to be with me but I was only there for 2 months and that she'd wait for me (doubt she actually will though). I still text a bunch of them through LINE so I'm trying to uphold relations until I go back.
Honestly if you're black AND you can speak decent level, you'll do fine. Just don't act or dress like those creeps in Roppongi or Kabukicho, please.
>>337310026
Haha, shit like that is great.
>>337310083
Feelsbadman. I'm 25 y.o.. Maybe I can find myself a single MILF? I wonder how japanese women will look at foreigh blond-haired blue-eyed 190 cm tall (though I weight only 65 kg) otoko?

If its one or two stranger I dont care about, I dont mind.
Hell, I would even find it funny. As long as shit dont get physical I can deal with it.

You probably don't even have half of the jap enough to even explain proper English grammar.

I started learning as a hobby to distract myself from my harder classes at college.
I'm a math major, and for me translating my essays on integration helps me relax.
we can beg JP atlus to include english subtitles
for some reason atlus USA are fucking egoist assholes and wont do dual audio
>wanting to be an english teacher

>Notice """"Professional"""" translators aren't accurately translating what was written.
>motivated to learn more Japanese so you can actually understand what was actually written/spoken.
>>337310613
Lmao squared, you're so deliciously desperate.
(In reality I'm not a native English speaker, so I'd never apply for an English teaching job. Although I did see some ads recruiting even non-native speakers for such positions. Pretty shitty, eh? If I were Japanese, I'd want to learn for a native speaker.)
>>337310382
>Just don't act or dress like those creeps in Roppongi or Kabukicho
Nah I dress and act pretty normal.
But do girls actually talk to you first or you have to strike a conversation yourself?
Because fuck where I live even when girls like you they dont let you know. Shit bothers me and turns me offf.
I would love to find a japanese girl who is easygoing and funny. Heard girls there are pretty perverted too.
Universal translators when? I want to just be able to put in an ear piece and instantly understand other faggots.
>>337304704

I am white, so I dont know if the experience will translate- but its a mixed bag. There are "Gaijin Hunter" types who will go out of their way to talk to you first and definitely want sex. They aren't my type. Most of the cuter, non slutty girls you have to start conversation with.
Join some sort of club or group activity for something you enjoy that is going to have girl members- work it from that angle. These can be harder to find in the country side though.
Is this the occasional "why haven'r you learned Japanese" thread?
I'm currently studying, but maybe I'm too stupid for the grammar. I understand it, but I can't memorize it. I memorized the kana and even the radicals, but I can't seem to memorize simple particles.
What games do you guys want translated?
>>337310992
At my job, yeah. Outside, no.
I mean, most people don't really walk up and talk to someone anyway so that's normal.
>Heard girls there are pretty perverted too.
It was always great when I saw some cute girl in the H section of a softmap or some anime apparel shop. Even funnier when I'm holding loli doujinshi in my hand and they ask if they can see the back.

tell me about your 日本友達s, onso

Fucking nip whisperers. "I don't need to comprehend, I can feel the folded strength of the nihon talent in the wind like a cool breeze. It can't be helped! Their completely incomprehensible gobbledegook just shines through!"
>>337311247
Jesus Christ, you're a disgusting person. There was no point arguing further, so I commented honestly as a gesture of good will, but you still can't do anything but attack me.
Well, consider the kind of life you probably lead, no wonder you're such toxic existence.
>>337311581
sounds like you got rekt hard
>>337311458
Literally everyone was saying it was perfect, even though I knew my speaking wasn't anywhere near that. They rarely corrected me and when they did, it was something small. Biggest issue was listening comprehension but that improved a lot.
Thankfully, native speakers aren't so judgemental that they would call a small mistake a trainwreck. My LINE is filled with buds now. No idea why the japanese love that app so much.
>learning a loser language
>>337311771
>Literally everyone was saying it was """""""""perfect""""""
>>337311462
There have been entire doctoral thesises written on the difference.
I can't think of a more loaded question.
>>337311904
>"even though I knew my speaking wasn't anywhere near that"
Seriously. Sit down and wait for the localization. It's easy.
>>337311549
>I can't tell tones apart
Are you literally autistic?
>>337311771
>My LINE is filled with buds now. No idea why the japanese love that app so much.
SMS used to not work across carriers so everyone used e-mail.
LINE works way better than the e-mail text system so it caught on rather quickly.
>>337311771
Jesus Onso, I'm not gonna shit on you like that lowercase autist with an inferiority complex, but c'mon

They always heap such praise even when you're shit.

Don't read too much into it. They say that even if you just say hello.
In a way it is a test of your abilities. Saying thank you is a very un-japanese response, to fruther impress them you have to be more humble in your answer.
>>337312068
Yeah that was obvious. I'm saying everyone told me my japanese was perfect, but I'm not so deluded to believe that. They were probably just surprise I could speak at some level at all. I actually wish they corrected me way more than they did.
>>337312016
Oh okay, that explains that. I thought it was due to the cute stamps and themes.
>>337311284
>Gaijin Hunter
Now theres something I never heard about. What the fuck!
But yeah while I wont refuse easy sex with asians, what I want is a serious relantionship, someone to go out with and do stuff together.
Maybe I will find one by just visiting the places I want to visit anyway.
>>337311324
>when I'm holding loli doujinshi in my hand and they ask if they can see the back.
Man if I'm ever in that situation I wouldnt miss that chance.
I'm guessing japanese girls really treat sex more lightly, even if they do censor their porn videos.
>>337306978
Anyone?

Well aren't majority of the doujin hentai artists/writers women?

>I'm guessing japanese girls really treat sex more lightly
I dunno. Everyone seemed to low-key and reserved there. Unless you're out in Shinjuku or Shibuya at night (especially on weekends) where everyone is turnt as FUCK.
Are there any games or online tests that can help with learning grammar?
>>337301684
Anon, it is impossible for any group of fans to translate P5 in the window between releases, assuming it comes out in NA this year. The Fire Emblem fans couldn't finish everything for Fates before the official release, and they had a seven-month window. P5's going to have more text in the main game, and there won't be as strong a fear of censorship to motivate people. There'd also probably be less morale because Fates failed.
You'll get a500-word, poorly-written summary on Tumblr at most.
>>337312584
>I'm guessing japanese girls really treat sex more lightly, even if they do censor their porn videos.
Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Remember not to generalize too hard or you might make yourself look dumb.
Generally the society cares less about oversexualization/violence and other hot topics that bothers the USA. Instead the Japanese society generally cares more about keeping up proper "Appearances", fitting in, group "harmony", and sticking to your own business and not bothering others.
>>337299539
Speaking's relatively easy, hell even 2 of the alphabets are easy, but learning the required kanji in all their contexts to be considered literate enough to even read basic shit would take a couple of years.
>>337312647
That's a badly posed question.
Read what in Japanese?
How long a day would you study?
etc. etc.
If you want just porn video games, you can get by with learning basic grammar in a month or two and then reading with automated machine translation for vocabulary. That's of course no way to enjoy something, but Fuwa/Redditors do it.
For example see MDZ. Big shot on /r/visualnovels, has a blog where he's been spamming eroge reviews for years, but still can't read a VN without texthooked auto- vocabulary. Make sure you don't end up like this.
>>337312803
Not sure about the "Majority" but a fair amount actually are. Just go to comiket one year and check it out yourself. Tons of the authors are female.

>>337313027
you make it sound like one could read quite a bit if they just learned basic grammar + memorized a shit ton of vocab.
Anyone know a good website to meet english speaker japanese girls?
The dating sites for asian people I found charge money to send messages.
I dont wanna have to go look around Facebook again.
