why would you learn something you havent seen yet? sounds kinda gay lol just read

let me new cards pile up to 110 again and since im too lazy to do them today i'll have to do 130-140 tomorrow good times

read this once and didnt get it and im not reading it again

>>24738256

this is a great reason why u dont even need anki in the 1st place

one day people will realize u can just learn words like most people without mindlessly srsing a word which may or may not have a shitty definition on it

>>24738454
dont care

just stop coming here and absorb nihongo all day, use common sense and anki how ever you want, im out just stopping by to feel better bout myself

>>24739173
I don't know what you mean by the 'mpv setup'. At first I wanted to have interactive script that just shows the current line in the browser, but I didn't know how to do it on Windows (because Lua is weird for Windows), so I did this.
You have clipboard inserter and what, a script that copies a currently showing subtitle in mpv?

>>24733188

>>24739406

this is why most of you idiots can read manga but can't understand anime, incredibly delusional kanji-dependent retards

>>24739275
no, i'm just repeating the parts i'm having trouble with taken from bits of real japanese. isolating the part and then repeating it so that i don't forget all the "meta"
this way that part will be repeated frequently and in a manner that i won't need to read grammar articles again.

why is the japanese learning community full of obnoxious guys like this dude that think that there is only one way to learn shit?

im halfway through improved core3k and vncore
they are pretty much the same for the essential words but core3k has too much business jargon
i think i prefer vncore
too bad vncore has no sentences and images

listening=/=hearing

ur using subs and if you are always looking at them then it is reading
do you call vns listen practice too

people in this thread are addicted to comprehension

you gotta let that go to improve listening

but everyone gets tricked by the kanji addicted subfags and think its a good idea and working because it makes them understand

meanwhile toggle off the subs and you still can't decipher anything

>>24739629
does your brain shut down your ability to hear the second your eyes hit upon writing? it must be really tough having a shitty brain like that

>>24739703
dood, i improved my English listening skills through heavy use of subtitles so... i'm quite skeptical of this anti-sub thing.

>>24739703
why dont you read one of the two things posted above since you feel so comfortable giving definitive advice haha

>>24739705
active recall is what you are aiming for, subtitles show you the answer immediately. imagine doing your anki reps with the answer already shown.

>>24739729
https://voca.ro/2S5EEf2dBDq

think ill give as much advice as i like bro

>>24736829
>A little more information: do not use subs of any kind, just keep watching and trying to understand. I suggest getting a +87 second hotkey for OP and a next episode hotkey for the end of episodes. Here is a script for MPV: "F9 seek 87 exact", enter is next file by default.
you know you can just do a chapter seek with "page up" right

keyword is:

>>24740165
theres nothing wrong with it you're just a jealous hater

3 episodes of raw anime(i want to read more shit than i want to watch, don't @ me)

50k minimum of a vn
2-3 volumes of manga
am i doing it right

>>24740224
dont know why you keep posting this pitiful stuff daily when you're obviously not even trying with those numbers

>>24740245
i'm still a beginner...
plus it's 50k minimum

>>24740322
it's a well known fact of language acquisition that you have to be enjoying it so yeah you're definitely doing it wrong

So glad i saved the juukan vocaroo by jamal before it was auto deleted

heres some banger advice

>>24740407
best post since 2016

i was watching vinland with jp subs but it's too good to be wasted like that so i put eng subs back on.

>>24740263
i think it would be better to do something thats "cutting edge" of your difficulty level but also i think counterintuitively once you get to a good standard of raw listening ability it actually helps to read more in that genre, like if you read jidaigeki novels you'd prob hear it a lot better because your subvocalisation matches up pretty well with how people speak anyway

realistically if you only want to watch like 2/3 jidaigeki movies and youre not that interested it would be tough to get to that point just watching other shit because jidaigeki uses very genre specific language but i think but as matt says you can just see how you feel in 1000 hours lol

>>24740468

oh yeah because korean definitely isnt just as bad with the chinese loan words
idiot

>>24740815
does anybody have it recorded?

>>24741141
japanese is probably one of the least mishmashed together languages of that currently exists that was designed from the ground up by a clergy man or something.

how could you not enjoy quiz's run on sentences ending in a variant of "i have ascended far beyond you plebs" while jamal acts as retarded as ever

>>24741287
if you're a veteran anki user it's actually not that hard to believe lol

>>24741141
lol what

>>24741141
korean isnt "created by a linguist" only the writing system was. japanese is grammatically and vocab-wise pretty similar to korean. it's probably even worse than japanese when it comes to things like homophones since they got rid of kanji

rewatching flcl for the first time in like 10 years. i had forgotten pretty much everything about it and rewatching it i'm blown away by how good it is.

the first time i watched it i don't think i was able to appreciate how special it was since i had so little experience with the medium, but watching it now i can really see how much it stands out from everything else.

you can really feel that the people making it were having fun and that feeling inevitably rubs off on you too as the viewer when you watch it. the creativity and care put into the animation (which is incredible for a show made in the very early days of the digital era) is really not something you get to see in many other shows.

that was obviously bait

Krashen also suggests that acquisition is better than actively learning? By your logic we should all drop our books and resources and just immerse ourselves with no goal?

Also if you're just going to practise input, that goes against what Krashen himself says about producing language yourself (output). How are you going to get your monitor to not do as much work when you haven't trained yourself in certain grammatical subjects?

If all you do is practise input your monitor will go apeshit anytime you try to produce a sentence in speech or writing, as it's a completely alien thing to do for you.

And let's not forget about the affective filter. The more you put out, the more comfortable you'll be in using said language & the lower the affective filter will be. And especially with languages such as Japanese/Chinese/Korean, which are so fundamentally different from our Romanic/Germanic languages it is a daunting experience for many to start producing output.

Yes, Krashen says comprehensible input is essential to language learning/acquisition. But straight up ignoring output or saying that is more important than producing output is not something he would ever say. Input and output are both essential.

i have a feeling you could brute force from 0 to n5 in a day if you had a memory even just a bit above average

>>24742309
>Krashen also suggests
don't care what some singular academic suggests. apparently they're retards who can't predict anything lol

>>24742379
english has tons of fucked up shit like that but it's still easy so who cares

>>24742309
stfu vlad

Just replying to all the comments, of course watching anime and listening to music is only good as a beginner's tool for listening practise. To really improve listening learners would really need move away from anime and such consume more complex and educational audio. Watching anime is more like a introduction to learning Japanese and it's more fun then reading a book on grammar.

>>24742818
It's fine to use english subs, if you keep them off, and only turn them on to see a second opinion on what something should mean.

But subs mean you are reading,not listening.

does that infuriate you???

at the end of the day raw anime + manga + no anki is a flawless strategy

literally everyone's comprehension goes to almost 100% with subs

relying on kanji is a beginner meme, you always hear people posting here bragging about how "well if it was in kanji i could have read it" when someone posts something in hiragana

knowing kanji is the first 10% of the language and by far not the most difficult part, it's just a beginner meme to weed out the weak

>>24744162
what exactly is "anime-level" text

>>24744207
you're literally exposing your level with every post if that's what you think

must suck to have a full time job and only have 2 hours a day to learn lol

either way i'm not 6 months in i'm like 5 years in and can understand anime with and without subs and i can tell you subs don't help with listening whatsoever, it just makes you feel better because you can actually comprehend what's going on.

>>24744366
no I can't take this thread anymore I'm getting the fuck out of here bye retards, you will never learn this language

>>24744361
>i guess i underestimated the vocab level of the average 12-13 year old that watches this shit
how can you be this retarded are you aware that a 12-13 yo native is fucking fluent on a level you will never achieve even if you study for your whole life?

>>24744374
>selectively quoting
i said:
>subs don't help with listening whatsoever

>>24744374
right? it's so fucking retarded
ooga booga i'll just white noise and delude myself into thinking i know japanese haha

>>24744387
ive watched dozens of other shows aimed at that demographic that had very little uncommon vocab, also i didnt put much thought into it so get off my back

>>24744397
anyone who says white noise is just exposing their own listening abilities lmao every time i hear it it's an automatic w for me

>>24744410
i did say you were delusional

>>24744410
you have the shittiest personality in this thread. you're insufferable

>>24744433
>if i don't use subs it's white noise
you already exposed yourself and lost lol stop posting

>>24744437
not as bad as the "white noise" guy

it's legit crazy how some people here are managing to become progressively more annoying when they were already godawful

>>24744443
nice "argument" faggot
the point is to wean yourself off subs, but okay, keep telling everyone to watch fanfiction

>>24744473
listening with subs is like using anki with the answer shown by default

i guess it might help to some degree, but it's 10% as efficient at best

>>24744366
you can do whatever you want

but dont be surprised when ur laughed at for being a seething bitch when you cry on here about how you cant understand something because of your own choice due to being a dogmatic retard incapable of introspection.
>>24744374
>>24744397
>reading comprehension translates 1:1 perfectly into listening comprehension
ok great then turn off the subs oh wait you cant lmao
>>24744447
subniggers are just whitenoisers but with subs underneath them. they pretend that reading something is the same as understanding it as said, but as soon as they turn off the subs they start crying like we see itt.
>>24744473
its sad that the general iq level of the anons of this thread is too low to figure this out

didn't think this place would get worse without jamal
i'm starting to appreciate him now

the guy who gets mad at the term white noise is legit retarded. jesus christ, how hard is it to understand that the term is used relative to the degree of knowledge of the listener?

white noise is a term only used by krasheniggers who believe they should understand things before they practice or by actual beginners who cant understand anything they hear both of which i stand against

>>24744514
yup
youjo senki is essentially white noise to someone watching stuff like mitsuboshi colors

the anti sub guy has been shitposting about it literally all day what a pathetic fucking loser lol

the point of listening practice isn't to understand everything, it's to get better at listening

part of it is to rehear the same easy and grammar and words over and over again, because the more natural those become, the easier it will be to parse harder words

instead of not understanding full sentences because you're not used to hearing the same easy grammar mumbled through over and over, instead you instantly know it and can spot the small things you miss

none of this requires subtitles, and subtitles do not help to getting to this level

if you don't put in the effort, you're never going to get to this level

this dude is toxic as fuck. i can picture him in real life. yikes

>>24744553
call it what you want it's the same stupid idea also you're throwing lots of insults triggered guy

Knowledge is incredibly mundane. Only the process is interesting.

what are some good jap movies?

am i the only fuckin person who has seen a direct correlation between getting better at anime with jp subs and raw? obviously im not as good at the latter but still

>>24744452

subnigs will never ever actually understand japanese

>>24744790
BAAAAAAAAAASED

subfags = room temp iq ankidrones

>kitsunekko has a "download all" button now
exceptionally based

>>24744790
yeah im thinking based
>>24744744
yeah im thinking cringe. also now filtering anti sub

i just can't take the antisubbers seriously because masters like quiz watched a truckload of media with subs. even matt said he did.

>>24744810
quiz has never proven that he can watch comfortably without subs tho

nobody in this thread will ever actually understand japanese

quick question
dvd対bluray
どっち

>>24744825
how do you prove that? it's his word against antisubbers. quiz has at least demonstrated some level of competence in reading vocabulary. and while not directly indicative, that's more than antisubbers can say.

>>24744839
yup
for all anyone knows every antisubber is a larper riding the train without any ability
not so with mary, retarded as he is

>>24744839
>how do you prove that?
transcribe something that doesn't have jp subs available like ciaran did for gurren lagann

>>24744839
quiz is crippled outisde of his reading abilitiy, he couldn't have a conversation with matt, let alone george

>>24744874
didn't quiz laugh at mistakes in ciaran's subs???

in reality you probably just suck so bad you don't know half the words and just make it easier by not using the subs and mentally skipping over everything
let's be honest if you are consuming varied japanese content you will listen a shit ton either way

>>24744839
>>24744865
>"demonstrated some level of competence in reading vocabulary"
>reading is now listening
this is how delusional you get if you buy into a literal who's advice. ngmi for life

when ciaran came back from japan he said he watched stuff without jp subs.

>>24744900
>it's his word against antisubbers
>quiz has at least demonstrated some level of competence in reading vocabulary
>while not directly indicative, that's more than antisubbers can say
you people lack comprehension in english too?
lol

>pausing
>subs
i seriously hope you faggots dont actually do this lmao, why not read a manga, a novel or a vn instead

>>24744900
antisubbers don't even understand english.

well, i used subs to learn english so you guys might understand why i'm skeptical of these arguments against them

does rewinding count as pausing?

>>24744962
mary?

>>24744900
can you not read english either lol

いい天気だね

imagine being an antipausing antisubber and understanding neither english or japanese

imagine being a subber but not using subs in your native language

imagine reading anime lol

nuke would be proud

>>24744939
nah we have to listen to the advice of a brainlet literal who doesnt actually know any nihongo, but we pretend that he does because at least can read. because that counts right?
>>24744926
>>24744950
>>24744972
talking about his reading vocabulary ability is a non sequitur response to what the anon (>>24744825) asked for, being if he can understand material without subs. just post any proof of him having a high level of listening comprehension lol

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aWrOdbyLLu4
is this what sub watchers do haha?

I once spent like two months trying to learn German by watching videos that had German subs with the aid of a popup dictionary. I never developed absolutely any listening abilities and never retained anything.

>>24745042
wasn't that what most of us did before deciding to learn the language anyways? bet u didn't care then

just jerked off in the time it takes a subber to decode a line of text

>障碍者
fuck ive been reading this as 被害者

>>24745065
thats cuz you are stupid, not everyone needs reading aids

>>24744831
bluray for anything made in the last decade or during the analog era (~1999 or earlier).

dvd for anything from ~2000 to ~2007 (unless you know it was produced at a higher resolution than was normal during those days).

be careful with the border between the analog era and early digital era, and also the border between the early digital era and the more modern digital era (where things started to be produced at higher resolutions). it's not like every show immediately switched over at the same date, so there are some shows e.g. in 2008 which were still being produced at low resolutions

>>24745056
someone who can read japanese is more likely to be able to comprehend spoken material even though ability in one doesn't entail ability in the other.

it's not proof that he can listen but the point is that antisub scum dont have evidence of any ability whatsoever. i'm guessing the antisubber is an esl and that's why he had trouble keeping up

wotdバリアフリー字幕

>>24745056
sit down, shut the fuck up and get back to me when you learn to read and draw inferences from english

is unsubbed really white noise for everyone? i dunno if everyone else is stupid or im just really smart now

>>24745056
the point anon was making was that mary has at the very least a stake in the matter whereas antisubbers have fucking zilch
learn 2 english before you learn to nip

reminder that qm broke down in tears failing to argue with matt since he is a braindead ESL lol

Isn't the point to use subbed anime in order to increase comprehension and slowly transition to non subbed as your comprehension and subvocalization ability increase? Surely that's more effective than just watching anime, no?

>>24745122
i can kinda understand some words or phrases but often have to look stuff up to check what im hearing and more often than not notice that words i hear are words ive already learned to recognize in written form
many times i need to listen to the same sentence several times till i actually understand it

>>24745164
what does being ESL have to do with anything? english is probably zizek's 10th language and he destroyed jordan peterson in a debate

tfw dont understand raw anime but dont wanna restrict myself to watching anime with japanese subs so often end up using eng subs

>>24745143
literally matto and everyone remotely good who can read and listen lmao
>>24745121
absolutely fuming
>>24745117
you must be retarded to believe if you think no one across the board is not also doing any reading materials, the point of not relying on subs is to increase listening comprehension, and not reading ability. while not using my reading ability as a crutch for my listening comprehension. if i wanted to improve reading ability, i'd just read a ln or manga. is that distinction too hard for your small brain to comprehend? kek
>>24745164
truth

>>24745229
>literally matto
you mean the dude who said he used jp subs for like a year

>>24745229
matt admitted to using jp subs lole
stop embarrassing yourself esl-kun

>>24745106
btw, you can always tell if you're dealing with a bluray ''''''''''''remaster'''''''''''' of something made digitally at low resolution by looking for the disgusting oily effect on the outlines like in pic related

>>24745238
>>24745255
also the same guy who isnt currently using them. funny how that works. its almost like his listening comprehension got better because he actively weaned off of them. make grug think

>>24745268
>he actively weaned off of them
Which is what I've been arguing for.

>>24745265
dvd upscaled via spline36 for comparison

>>24745283
yeah but you have to remember subonlyniggers are too low iq to connect the dots to comprehend that

>>24745295
Do you have problems with people who start off without subs at all?

>>24745295
>subonlyniggers
don't exist retard

>>24745295
great, so you're an idiot esl AND you've been attacking an opponent you built yourself
sit down
sdfu

>>24745306
those are whitenoisers, they're far more retarded than being subonly. but if you rely too much on subs, in the sense that you believe they are a straight path to listening comprehension, you will never make gainz in doing so. youll falsely convince yourself that you're making gainz just because you can read a line as the audio line is being said, and we've already seen evidence of anons who think so itt.
>>24745363
>don't exist
then you posted
>>24745375
lmao still fuming

how to completely destroy subfags:
step 1: tell them to toggle off subs
step 2: ask them what was just said

in fact i have an even easier way:
step 1: tell them to read a children's book written in hiragana
step 2: watch them fail to understand basic words without kanji

lol too easy

butterfly makes me want to watch all of digimon
is it worth if youre not nostalgia tripping

subfags need subs for pegga pig or its just white noise

subbers got addicted to their manga comprehension and don't want to start at square one with listening because they neglected it the entire time, so they read their way through anime pretending it's the same lol actually pathetic

I am awful at motivating myself to keep using anki. Are there any recommended mobile apps that people use? Using lingodeer now and just going through the test-outs mostly, but not super sure about the way it teaches. Also a kanji lookup/recognizer so I can keep being lazy and not learn radicals.

>>24745508
just give up now you're not going to make it with that attitude lol trust me

>>24745419
>but if you rely too much on subs, in the sense that you believe they are a straight path to listening comprehension, you will never make gainz in doing so
Definitely. Reading comprehension doesn't 1:1 transfer to listening comprehension and vice versa.

>>24745521
Believe me I've given up more times than I can count. But I manage to keep coming back to trying to learn. Brute forcing my way through a LN right now and it's excruciating. I am ass at picking up languages.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ
never given up

the past few days ive just checked this thread once per day to see if theres an interesting resource posted or any funny agf/reddit reposts and i think its a lot more healthy for me as a whole.

>>24745524
like literally all the subfaggots have to do is realize that the kana are phonetic. meaning every single word you read (including kanji that has furigana) has a sound corresponding to it. so what do you do if you encounter something you dont know how to say? you sound every single character like you did when you were a fucking child. take おにぎり for example. if you dont how it sounds, just sound out every single letter. "O-NI-GI-RI". then just say it together: "onigiri", like wow, was that so hard? now that you know how to say it, you should also know how it sounds to your ears. fortunately nihongo is not like english so most words are pronounced in the same exact way. so when someone else says it, you should be able to pick up on it. its the most brain dead thing to know.

>>24745621
wtf are you rambling about you already established you're not arguing against an actual belief held by anyone here

>>24745621
i have to ask who you're arguing against at this point

>>24745684
ぢらて

dide can you point at a single person here whose intention is to use subs forever instead of weaning off them gradually? are you that inexperienced with english?

>>24746170
yeah i just saw it used that way for the 1st time by a guard in majoras mask and was like wtf
and then i tabbed in here to shitpost about it

>>24746119
this is why you should watch 10k hours of eng subbed anime so you dont have to learn 僕 through shitty jmdict entries

>there are people in this thread listening to bad music RIGHT NOW.

>similar to the way japanese kids often talk about themselves in third person because their mothers call them by their name.
kek dumbass kids

my dopamine receptors really have been destroyed. i never feel strongly about my progress like people like this
>>24746273

>>24746243
the problem with jmdict definitions is not so much whether or not theyre wrong (since theyre almost always closer to right than to wrong) but rather that they dont really have notes on usage that would really help distinguish them from other similar words

>>24746243
i had way too much fun watching that back in hs
>>24746273
the high will go away which is why you need to start watching and reading stuff you like on the regular which will be your new and primary 脈 for this language

i dont believe in any of that gmi or ngmi shit since ive been classified as both during my stay here on djt

>>24746390
> dont have as much fun watching anime these days
yes but i still have a lot of fun watching anime
you are greatly underestimating how much fun i had with that anime

>once you watch all the highly rated series and become familiar with all the common tropes that appear in most anime, i think its normal to not enjoy anime as much since what you end up being left with are middle and bottom of the barrel stuff
100% me

i feel like theres a whole universe of shit from the 90s and before that i havent even touched that is probably really good

>>24746435
as the main poster of gmis and ngmis, gmi or ngmi is more about ur attitude and less about ur progress unless u do something so universally regarded as stupid we gotta call you out for it. stuff like "i was able to complete my first manga raw after hard work" is more wholesome and praiseworthy than debating on the particulars of how much anki u did and if you used sentence or vocab cards

>>24746549
>i feel like theres a whole universe of shit from the 90s and before that i havent even touched that is probably really good
you think that but then you watch something like gunbuster for the first time and you're muttering "i've seen this. i've seen this" while trying to stop yourself from falling asleep

>code geass back when i was 15/16 years old too.

>>24746583
>and you're muttering "i've seen this. i've seen this" while trying to stop yourself from falling asleep
whenever ive watched an episode of star trek or two with my dad i often tell him how stuff there reminds me of anime like macross and yamato even though i know that that stuff is inspired by star trek which is in turn inspired by older science fiction novels

>code geass

this is what it all comes down to isn't it? as anime or tv show watchers we're basically eating scraps. no, we're eating shit. novel readers get to experience the best and most original stories.

what do regular japanese book covers feel like? do they have glossy covers (similar to the images in those penguin classics books) or dryish-covers (like oxford world classics and wordsworth classics covers)?
no idea which american commercial press' books to compare them to since i never buy recent commercial fiction, but i know theres a bit of variety in those too.
