/jp/ - Otaku Culture

it's kinda funny because i remember making a post about starting to read nip about a year ago, and how reading one page of welcome to the NHK took me almost 30 minutes to decipher

fast forward a year later i've played through amagami, been navigating through japanese web sites, been buying mango from bookoff - and things are getting easier.

having knowledge of chink runes helped A LOT in learning nip. that and having jisho.org constantly open also helps you. I still can't quite stray away from works without the furigana, but I have to say, it's fun, /jp/, you just need a manga or game that you'll be able to personally devote time into reading/deciphering

oh and reading a lot of porn helped too - can't say so much in the way of grammar. i totally would have taken classes at university, but i'm in vancouver, where the asian populace is 99% and saturated with faggots like me that all want to take nip
