This is a Japanese language learning thread designed by and for those interested in traditional otaku media such as anime, manga, visual novels, light novels, and Japanese video games.
If you have no interest in otaku media or want to request a translation, this is not the thread for you.

i bitched about it last thread but this is hard because i just don't see how it's gonna get me to fluency. but i've been forcing myself to do it 2 hours every day so hopefully something comes of it in those two weeks that one guy told me. i'm doing core2k on the side now though.

Cheers. I've smoked like 3 times in the past 6 months since it's hard to get in my home country but I won't be able to resist it in the Netherlands. I've tried quitting 3-4 times after summer breaks and I just can't do it when it's available. I'll be gone for good in a year so there's that.

No, your intention was to garner attention with your 'edgy' drug habit. You don't care if anyone else here studies while high, you just wanted to let everyone know how 'cool' you are for smoking weed.

Man when I started learning German in high school they made you pick a book and start reading immediately. Literally, day 2. You had to give a book report on it by the end of the semester.

The prize pick was Harry Potter. I got to the bin last, and my choice was between Goethe's Faust, and Mein Kampf. Ended up reading both.

So I'm reading kino, but I'm not sure about how i should be doing this.
Do i try to aim for a complete understanding of the sentences? Should i focus on memorizing the kanji that I'm reading? Or should i not put too much effort and just focus on the story (or what i can understand of it) and hopefully learn along the way at a slow pace?

Pretty crap then, as I thought. I didn't spend all day on it though, I just kind of read it as I wanted to over the course of the day and ended up finishing the volume just now. Too tired now to read anymore though so I'll be going to bed before long. Maybe tomorrow I'll try reading with the mindset of seeing how far I can get in a day and see how well I do.

I've only been reading VNs really since I started learning Japanese, so I don't have a very good feel for what's "good", "bad" or "average" yet when it comes to manga in terms of volume.

obviously it depends on the manga, like oshimi shuuzou puts less text in his mangas than say the made in abyss guy, but generally manga is quite the light dish and i've eaten my way through most of a whole series like ハピネス in one sitting before

when i consume manga i do it for fun at my own pace and not really for the sake of getting through anything, so i advise you to do the same and worry about having fun with your nihonese comic books instead of worrying about # of volumes conquered per day

>Do i try to aim for a complete understanding of the sentences?
yes

>Should i focus on memorizing the kanji that I'm reading?
you should pay enough attention so you can remember each new kanji next time you see it, if that's what you mean

>focus on the story (or what i can understand of it) and hopefully learn along the way at a slow pace?
this is what you should do, but it will require a lot of effort to understand sentences and a lot of effort remembering kanji and a lot of looking up words in the dictionary

Obviously, but try not to waste too long on any given sentence otherwise you'll end up taking a long time to read hardly anything. If you don't get a sentence after reading it 3 times, you're probably not going to get it, so just settle for whatever vague understanding of it you can gather and move on. When you're struggling, try to think about the context in which the sentence is being used.

Okay so, I failed N5 for the second time. I have little formal training. I seriously want to prepare by myself instead of taking more classes cause I personally don't think they help a lot. I have a few printed study materials but not sure if it is enough for me as I failed twice now. I request the community to help me out by suggesting good study materials, sites etc so I can hopefully pass the next exam.

On that note, are SoL light novels a good idea to read first? On top of kino having varied settings (meaning more different context kanji), there's also philosophical aspects that might go over my head at this rate

LNs will be pretty similar difficulty wise, just don't start with anything well known for complicated/eccentric prose or dialogue and you should be good (i.e. leave nisio isin and jintai for later)

Don't worry too much, just pick something you are interested in reading and try to tackle it.
I've only read a few tiny exceprts from kino that someone was posting here for help a good while ago. People say it's easy and it seems fine as an option for your first LN. If you want more options I started with イリヤの空、UFOの夏 and enjoyed it, take that as a recommendation.

yea. i finished RTK a week ago or so (keyword to kanji) and i've started reading. my RTK reps have already reduced by like 40% and i've started core to reinforce words/readings i'm encountering in the wild. i've also started using the anki extension which resets ease back to default.

as i learn more i'm going to add japanese words in kana to my RTK cards so that i retain them for good, or at least words with a kanji that is cloze deleted.
