/jp/ - Otaku Culture

An insult to stage 6

Do you really need to learn the on'yomi and kun'yomi readings?

I can see why it would be useful to know the meanings since they will help to familiarize you with the appearance of the kanji and it will be easier to remember vocabulary if you use the meanings as little clues to trigger your memory of the vocab. On'yomi is a confusing mess that's filled with so many exceptions that it's easier to just learn the pronunciations of entire words since that has some context to it and is easier to remember. You would also already learn the kun'yomi in a much easier to remember context by going through your vocab.

I don't understand how people are able to retain so much out of context data and keep it organized within their minds. It seems simpler and less frustrating to focus on vocab and fly through kanji as fast as possible while just remembering the meanings.

I find it so hard to believe that there are people on /jp/ who are British.

Just the thought that a man who could make any American woman moist with the very sound of his voice would be on /jp/ and talking to someone like me, I'm just a lowly American with a nasally high pitched voice.

I just can't understand it. I try to wrap my head around the idea and I can't comprehend it. I don't think I'll ever be able to look at British people as anything other than gods.

I guess this is the official bullying thread?

Nothing would change because Remilia is a worthless self-important whore who has no power or influence outside the SDM.

Seriously, she is the worst excuse for a stage 6 boss in all of Touhou. Let's look at some other stage 6 bosses from modern Touhou games.

Yuyuko: Power over spirits and life itself
Eirin/Kaguya: Can make mortals immortal
Kanako: A legitimate god with followers and shrines
Utsuho/Okuu: Thermonuclear fusion
Byakuren: Youkai Jesus

Remilia: Can emit red mist, not even a real descendent of Vlad (check wiki)

One of these things, is not like the others
one of these things just doesn't belong.
