i only come here like twice a year why is there a boomer/zoomer civil war? isn't this thread supposed to be about learning japanese?

>>24764302
just some dumb comments about how everything new sucks because and only because its new

>>24764324
are you sure that's the only reason or are you just imagining a boogeyman?

>>24764280
archiving? are you being retarded on purpose?

>>24764324
really cool strawman dude, have fun tearing it down i suppose

>>24764324
and they're damn right :^)

>>24764333
djt is just one post after another of people telling each other "you dont know japanese", "no, YOU don't know japanese"
why the fuck would you care for archiving that shit with thread numbers when you can just look up the exact words somebody else posted through google or through warosu's internal search function?

japanese the manga way is the best grammar guide i've read. it made me understand very fast a lot of stuff specially the te form

>>24764324
maybe people just hate vtuber shit because its gay buddy

the only good games are kana soup

where are you at?

>>24764465
3000, grinding my way to 10k before i start tho

>>24764465
between 20k and 30k

>>24764465
is there a similar chart for the kanji required for said words? how much of that is covered by jouyou?

sometimes when i recognize a word by ear for the first time i see the kanji in my "mind's eye"
just saw 厄介 in my head

>>24764434

>>24764373
ok now say this in japanese and maybe ill reply

>>24764465
i think i know 5k words

>>24764527
i said good games

how do i know if a word is worth mining or not

>>24764434
thats a good thing

hello this is jamals mother hes grounded and is not allowed on the computer
he begged me to type this out so his friends wouldnt get worried about him
i dont know why he started freaking out when i used proper punctuation but he wouldnt stop throwing things until i wrote everything in lowercase
anyways thank you for talking with my son hes autistic and isnt really good with people so im glad hes socializing albeit online at least a little bit

wow i went to the kitchen just know and it hit me.
>i have watched 900 episodes of one piece and didn't learn japanese. jamal is a fool

900 episodes of one piece + probably 300 other episodes(naruto, fma, fmab, death note, berserk etc...) of other stuff with eng/my native language subs and i think i only learned like 30 words

this is the proof jamal's method doesn't work

>>24764904
jamal is the proof jamal's method doesn't work

>900 episodes of one piece + probably 300 other episodes(naruto, fma, fmab, death note
wow that's rough buddy i'm so sorry you put up with all that mediocrity.

every time i watch a shounen jump adapted anime i wish i read the manga instead

>doing japanese for 20 years
>still watches shit with eng subs
another flawless victory for jamal, he has conquered japanese

>>24764904
pretty sure most people know subs don't help with listening

there are still a couple delusional people in this thread though

>>24764918
what about code geass?

have any of you guys tried using koohi.cafe? basically it automines all the vocab in a given book/anime and lets you pick the ones that are new to you and then you can review them. barely even tried it yet but seems like a good thing

>>24765034
code geass is good

>>24765044
no

>>24765034
ending is good most of the show sucks though

>>24765047
nice that we enjoy something in common

>>24765044
i wrote my own shitty version of that with mecab + python.
i put all the words that i had on anki on a text file and then did the rest with mecab and python hehe
i'm no programmer though

>>24765044
seems dumb as fuck

>>24765034
good

>>24764918
did you learn what nakama means

>>24765090
oh, i forgot about bleach. i said 300 episodes but it was probably 500

>>24764904
youre supposed to skim thru a shitty grammar book, read 10k pages of furiganad manga, and read 50+ eroge after the 10k hours of eng subbed anime

>>24765099
oh bleach has 366 episodes wtf. i have watched a shitload of shounen episodes then. i'm underestimating myself

>>24765099
imagine following bleach post mid hueco mundo

tried bleach but its so fucking boring

i feel so glad that the longest anime based off a shounen manga that ive watched is fmab instead of some shit like naruto or one piece

>>24765122
sometimes we continue a series just for the familiar attachment we get to the characters after a while even when the show goes to shit

>>24765134
its suppose to dissolve not bore through your organs

lmfao >>/v/516985681

i don't even remember ichigo's personality or his philosophy. he just kinda stared blankly a lot and fought evil guys cuz they messed with his friends

>>24765167
it's been a while but that sounds about right

for example the tv show lost became a shitshow but i couldn't stop watching it cuz i liked some of the characters and wanted to know what their fate in the show was and what the writers had in store for them

>>24765167
>philosophy
hate it when people use this to refer to a person's 信念

>bleach

>>24765167
u watch bleach for the sword fights and getting to witness nigga's bankais

my guilty pleasure was laughing at the tons of asspull-reverse asspull fights in the thousand year blood war arc on /a/

why watch bleach when you can watch stuff thats got girls with huge tiddies like ikki tousen or koihime musou?

why does one watch bleach? u want to see the dude saving his nakamas and releasing his supreme waza when he is in a pinchi

Nobody answered me last time and I will ask again. Does reading with furigana improve my Japanese reading skills?

not gonna lie dudes got a slight chub every time ichigo went tensa zangetsu

the problem with bleach is that so much of the show centers on the fighting and the animation is just ass. i mean its expected from an early 2000s long running shounen but its just not interesting to look at .

>>24765212
it's for native speakers so i assume that it helps

>>24764762
reminds me of this
https://youtu.be/Eo70K2A7H4w

is pinchi the funniest word that japanese borrowed from english?

>>24765212
jamal recommends it so it's probably bad since everything he says is wrong

>>24765212
furigana is a crutch and should be phased out within the first month. if you don't know a word either look it up or skip it.

ive read like 15 eroge, 15 lns, and 15 vols of manga so far, and i still cant understand raw anime

got some good anime recs fellas?

>>24765232
I just read whatever i find on NHK News Easy every day I can. Lately, I find myself being able to read at a moderate speed. Before I would always stop and think if this is the correct hiragana or katakana. I don't know if i consider good progress.

>>24765276
>NHK News Easy
never gonna make it

>>24765260
yea no shit reading doesn't translate into listening skill at all. why won't you listen to matt?

>>24765256
Why is it a crutch?

>>24765237
i remember getting recced this opening https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHoRnqYtapE then looking that series and finding out it's got a bunch of ntr :(

>>24765289
>why won't you listen to matt?
because listening to jews speaking english doesnt help me with my japanese listening skills (or lack thereof)

>>24765284
Then what other recommendations you have in mind anon?

>>24765260
if you want to get better at listening start listening
if you want to get better at reading start reading
very simple

djt's queen

>>24765304

>>24765290
it isnt
read a hundred vols of furigana'd manga (better be good shit) and then jump onto reading other stuff
youll eventually get used to ignoring furigana the more you start to recognize words through kanji alone

>>24765325
stop posting this arbitrary garbage

>>24765325
anime isn't reading

>>24765337
no
>>24765338
it is if u put subs on haha

>>24765304
idk just look through the manga section on the itazuraneko library and click on where it says 振り仮名

>>24765342
subbed anime is neither listening nor reading

>>24765331
Yeah i've been able to pick up kanjis that i encounter on NHK News Easy. Any recommendations for furigana Manga? I rarely don't like reading, but I want to change that so I can get better.

>>24765369
well im pretty sure u are reading the subs haha u dumb or something??

>>24765284
why do people shit on nhk easy so much?

>>24765369
what?

素晴らしい. jamal finally is forever gone

>>24765381
>>24765393
it's passive listening at best. it's like doing math homework while simultaneously looking at the answers in the back of the book.

>>24765382
i shit on the news in general
i shit on the new york times, the guardian, etc.
for me news equals normalfags who attend protests wearing t-shirts with cringy political slogans
news sites never report good stuff, only stuff to shit on politicians and foreign governments

>>24765382
cause reddits will drown in complacency while reading that for months cause theyre scared of normal native material

>>24764740
that wasn't me. i haven't been enraged enough to damage a nearby person or object ever since george set me straight on his livestream.

>>24765149
name a shounen which not only improves as it goes but transcends its targeted demographic like hxh. don't say one piece because i read several hundred chapters of that awhile ago and it's just typical cringe shounen shit where luffy punches evil oppressor bad man every island which makes his soon to be crew mate cry because wow luffy the goofy rubber punching boy is showing that you CAN chase your dreams as long as a goofy rubber boy sails to your island. everything in that cartoony world feels contrived. i see what you're doing oda and it bores me. i can't believe luffy and crew were fighting enel at the same chapter where meruem had just fought netero. it's not even a fair comparison. don't say fmab because king bradley is the only decent character in that boring ass series. am i forgetting anything popular that someone will unironically attempt to compare to the godly levels that only hxh has reached? oh yea aot. lmfao get back to me when there's a single likable character. people who weight the spectacle more than the narrative need not reply.

>>24765410

>>24765453
non-meme answer: japanese the manga way

>>24765453
たえskim

i've watched 900 of one piece but couldn't stand 30 of hxh, so fucking bland... generic shit

what if you skip the first 90 episodes of hxh to get to the so called good part

>>24765509
>generic smart guy
started of as a weak man with smarts but in the end was one of the most courageous of them all even with all his desires

Just finished episode 85, Im finally enjoying it now. Things in the show, for the first time ever are actually HAPPENING. The replies from my previous post were all saying "hurr durr it's a DECONSTRUCTION of shonen it's what would happen if shonen were a reality you just want braindead fights!" (Which I could list countless retarded scenarios in the first 4 arcs that prove this is absolutely false and how it's not any different than any other shonen the way it handles different conflicts. Besides the fact that it blueballs you in every climax of every arc except for greed Island. But the villain and plot of that arc was so lame I didn't even fucking care that I got a decent payoff at the end.)

But the overall narrative has progressed more in these last 10 episodes than it did in the last 3 arcs comebined. This arc has DRASTICALLY cut the retarded Nen exposition dialogue and replaced it with interesting character interactions. I swear once Nen was introduced and they spent 15 minutes per episode talking about how it works in every arc, I no longer cared and just wanted something to happen, which never did until now. It finally feels like the wheels of the overall narrative are moving for the first time since the hunter exam. I like how Ging is CONSTANTLY being brought up and we're slowly learning little things about him all the time now. I like the contrast of Killua and Gons mindsets. (Killua was basically Gons lapdog after the hunter exam ended and hardly ever questioned his decisions and just went along with whatever Gon did until now) I like that gon is so stupidly optimistic that kite is still alive despite the fact that he's dead, etc. This so far is the only truly good arc in this series so far. But I still don't know how this anime has been regarded as some subversive masterpiece by the shills on this board. Regardless, I'm decently enjoying myself watching this now, so I'll see it through till the end.

https://myanimelist.net/anime/6262/Manga_Sekai_Mukashibanashi?q=manga%20sekai

this is it. a true exit level anime.

>>24765485
Wtf is this reply, i cant even

man 電車男 was a good drama

>>24765295
really? lol, that's a shame

>>24765549
sounds like self-insert bait for lonely losers

*furiously writes something on a txt file*

>>24765529
don't even remember how that transition happens. goes to show how generic his arc is.

>>24765530

>>24765509
as for erwin, i guess u skipped this part

>be scared lil pussy boi
>no longer scared lil pussy boi
wow armins arc was fantastic

has steve ever made any good videos?

>>24764223
soon my brother, soon...

>>24765600
he is still a scared lil pussy boi but with the determination to act

>>24765613
holy shit

>>24765600
this is why romance is like 1000x better than those tropes

>>24765581
no. it's not critiquing anything it's just declaring that nothing happens until chimera ant which is patently false and he's complaining that the exposition about nen is boring but appreciate nen exposition because i hate how powers and fights feel completely arbitrary in most other shounen. i never said anything about hxh being a deconstruction. he's right about gon's naive optimism and the contrast between his and killua's mindsets though.

>>24765578
fuck who would want to self insert as that guy tho
they did a good job at portraying him as 'a failure who needed to change'

>>24765613
wow what a fantastic "arc"

isnt ur nen ability just whatever u want or something arbitrary like that lol i cant remember its been a long time since i watched it

>>24765613
there's a limited range of possible personalities and actions a character can have. the point is armin isn't one dimensional

you are all so fucking stupid

ah it's one of those hxh threads i love those

>>24765631
what the fuck is in hxh that we haven't seen everywhere else? hxh is more generic than fairy tail. we don't even aot's character the overall story when it comes to the politics already shits upon hxh by itself

>>24765525
then it would be like 20 good episodes and then back to being boring again

>>24765644
well said

>nigga
>boi
where do you retards come from

>>24765639
yea it's still ultimately arbitrary but it has to be in order to get the kinds of powers we see. it's still better defined than its peers

>>24765670
jojo's power system is undoubtedly better and a lot more interesting than nen

>>24765670
never watched it but fate zero probably did it better.

>>24765684
jojo stands are just a downgrade of nen. what'll determine which one you prefer is how the fights are written.

>>24765690
>fate
i don't enjoy hxh but no
nasu can't write for shit and even urobuchi couldn't do anything about it

the background of aot alone already shits on hxh. the world by itself is already way above anything that dumb show called hxh can offer

hxh is too inconsistent to be higher than 7.5/10

transcendental highs > consistently "good"

>>24765702
>jojo stands are just a downgrade of nen
???
>what'll determine which one you prefer is how the fights are written
and most(not all) jojo fights are better

>homoxhomo
>transcendental highs
Please stop.

love almost all shows with power systems shits just cool simple as

its also too gay to be higher than 7.5/10

that hisoka retard alone already makes the show a 5/10
one of the cringiest characters i've even seen

>>24765773
hurr dude little boys my rubber nen xd

7.5/10 is a very good rating

>>24765793
for something like yuru yuri you could consider that an outstanding rating but for something as brilliant as hxh you can tell it's coming from a troll or some retard who likes childish shounen crap.

wonder why pretty much the only arc praised by hxhtards is the chimera ant arc
surely the whole thing would be quality, no?

>>24765810
you have a condition, i understand. you are autistic and monothematic about a show but let me tell you something dude hxh is generic and weak. it has nothing to offer. it is infantile and derivative

>cringe
>cringey
i swear 99% of the time the subhumans who use this term as a stand in for criticism have nothing to say whatsoever

>>24765793
definitely

the one thing i miss about living where i did during uni was that i could just scream whenever i felt enraged. now when im feeling mad i just have to endure it with no release.

come on guys anmari ijimenaide agete to hxh guy

>>24765829
other hxh arcs are mildly entertaining and infinitely more enjoyable than its shounen peers because of togashi's approach to characterization and plot progression (less flashback spam and contrived melodrama) but other hxh arcs don't necessarily compete with the best that the entire medium has to offer. that changes with the chimera ant arc.

>>24765837
i wish that were true. as much as i try to forget it i can't get it out of my head. every time i try to watch something like aot i'm so bored out of my mind and i can't help but think of hxh's best scenes. erwin's charge was so lame. like if i wanna watch something like that i'll just watch lotr.

robert what have u been doing since u quit japanese? is there more to ur life than hxh?

>>24764699
most likely /jp/ is full of pretty boys

>>24765912
based off the vocaroos yes

How come I can read a sentence in Japanese and completely get the meaning in my brain but the second someone asks me what it means I have no idea how to turn it into English?
I hate this, my friends bully me about it all the time.

>>24765912
i'm ugly

>>24765945
go to /int/

is makimura ayaka faking it or is she just really sensitive or something

stop referring to your thoughts as "my brain"

they all fake it for the film bro

>>24765970
never heard of him

>>24765896
hxh is shallower than mitsuboshi colors
hxh is what i'd expect my a 15 year dude to come up when trying to write his own manga.
fairy tail feels original next to hxh
hxh is like when a dude writes a fanfiction but changes names and the background a little bit
hxh is that generic platform game that is suspiciously too similar to mario
hxh is that rpg created on rpgmaker by an unknown author

ty to the anon last thread who rec'd shield slut mmo anime it was a good watch

>>24765969
but my thoughts come from my brain. this post also is all my brain. the act of interpreting your post was also my brain. the brain is all i am

i'm watching some movie scenes here and analyzing my listening skills as an ESL and it's interesting how i don't need to put any effort. i just understand even if i don't want to

Hm. Only an hour and a half today. I'm getting lazy

hxh has interspecies romance

i got temporarily kinda tired of studying japanese. today i just watched 5 episodes of digimon and 2 of maruko without subs
2bh i'm losing motivation but i have nothing else to do so i'm sticking with it by doing this

>>24766740
>2bh i'm losing motivation
why

i don't mind watching raws as long as i understand at least one word per sentence

>>24766750
cuz i put a monstrous amount of effort and still suck bad on the other hand i studied another language for 4 months and i could already read a book in it

Matto-sensei says do Heisig but Dolly-sensei says no. What do, /djt/?

people here talk shit about anki but sometimes anki is what makes me get back on track after i feel like shit and skip japanese for a day or two. i'm like "well i have nothing to do let me do some reps" then the feeling of wanting to learn comes back

why did abraham Lincoln make an appearance in the nichijou ln lmao based

>>24766829
matt recommends a very specific trimmed down version of heisig keep that in mind

>>24766843
True, I guess I'll stick with recognition RTK then

>>24766829
let me explain the purpose of rtk: to learn how to write the kanji and have the skill of knowing a kanji just like when you look at the letter K and you know it's K. that's it, you do it if you have difficulty recognizing symbols like I did
for example
感 vs 惑 | 勤 vs 働 | 氷 vs 水 | and stuff like that
偉 vs 違

>>24766829
do you have difficulty telling apart kanji? do some heisig or whatever, despite the fact that if you aren't retarded context alone should help
otherwise? no

rtk might seem like too much work in the beginning. it's true u'll be sacrificing some time for it but in the long term it'll let you go crazy when it comes to vocab learning. you'll look at new words and the shape will be familiar to you letting you go balls deep with ankidroning

for example: i saw this word only yesterday: 覇王
but by seeing the characters i know it's "hegemony king"
the meaning is "supreme king"
i already know how to write both characters
that's my argument for RTK

>>24766924
reading lets you do the same btw

>>24766960
the fact that you had to rely on recalling english keywords says it all
also that doesn't always work, take for example 十重二十重
also could you read the word

>>24766961
well, not for me. i really had trouble recognizing shit

840
ｋｙｓ

>>24766979
i don't try to read in the rtk way. I look at the shape of the character first then i search in my mind if i know the japanese reading if i don't i learn the sound and meaning. next time if I fell some trouble I evoke the RTK meaning in my mind.

i don't try to recall the rtk meaning. I always try to search for the jp pronunciation first but sometimes I dont know it and see the meaning and I go "ahhh of course, it's that character" like 脚力 i didn't even think of rtk but after i saw the meaning the meaning of 脚 came back in my mind so it makes it easier to remember the meaning

>>24766999
okay but you said you saw the word 覇王 and used the "character meanings" to figure out the meaning of the word itself and that doesn't always work like with the example i provided
what then

>>24767028
thanks for clarifying

>>24767029
no bro, i didn't use the rtk meaning to figure it out. I looked the word up and after i saw the meaning the rtk keyword of 覇 popped back in my mind. it's "hegemony" so I can't forget the meaning after that

>decameron

>>24767055
yes?

i just learned 覇王 by watching berserk and reading the definition provided for it in the dictionary instead of relying on rtk keywords

>>24766874
>感 vs 惑 | 勤 vs 働
>偉 vs 違
literally never had problem with those

>>24767075
i didn't rely on rtk to learn the "word" i rely on rtk to store in my mind the shape of the word and next time if I stumble upon it and it looks unfamiliar I can go like
>"hmm i've seen this before let me use rtk here
>"hegemony" "king" *my brain recalls pronunciation due to understanding what the word refers to*

>>24767101
it's weird too because these aren't isolated in actual media
i don't see how you'd confuse either of them when you have stuff like 感覚 and 迷惑 all the while being surrounded by different words providing additional context

>>24767142
the fact they aren't isolated is actually worse. many times we don't pay 100% attention cuz we see the "outline" of the word then later we meet another word and this is where the similar character gets you. you will mix the characters with another character that you just had the outline of in your mind

u guys must have spent years learning and already want to flex. I only have 8 months in and I try to learn a fuckload of words at once. try to do this without RTK. try to learn 200 words in one day as a beginner without rtk.
don't brag about it when u've been at it for a 100 years.

>hmmm i've seen these kanji before
>*checks dictionary*
>"supreme king" my brain learns and/or recalls pronunciation or will do so the next time i encounter it

>>24767178
ok i said 8 months but it's more like 5 seriously. 8 is the amount of time i've been pretending to learn. I started two language at once and only got serious with japanese later

wtf then you need to count the apparent 5 months it took you to do RTK as part of the time you've spent learning "hegemony" and "king"

>I only have 8 months in and I try to learn a fuckload of words at once.
>learn 200 words in one day as a beginner

>>24767217
>>24767238
actually i started japanese and another language at the same time. while I did rtk I studied another language which I did reach a good level then I went balls deep into japanese after that

what was the other language bro

>learn 200 words in one day as a beginner
and then to noone's surprise you quit a few months later
take it easy bro

>>24767272
i didn't fucken quit. i'm still here brah
i'm about to watch some raw anime and i studied 630 anki SENTENCE cards today

look boys, no one needs RTK. I just gave my 2 cents on why it can be helpful in my case I needed it cuz i had difficulty with them symbols

>>24767296
that was more of a prediction than anything
take it easy

>>24767317
if i were to quit i would have done it months ago. I'm in too deep already

i'm feeling in the mood to rewatch abenobashi

is there an easy way to divide anki decks into parts?

https://mega.nz/file/lZZGkY4Y#G2Ci-IBQ7Cz7PWl9d8a8aGdmlG_grDqwSQdXvmajq_Q

made an excel template for mass-editing anki decks with japanese definitions that cleanly strips instances of the headword from the definition space so you can use flipped cards for production testing. the template also contains a tutorial on how to automatically generate definitions in japanese for a set of cards, and how to get the cards into excel for editing and back into anki. the tutorial was written with friends who cant into computer in mind but it should be pretty easy to skim through

I wish there was some good otakushit I could get into but I'm just not motivated. What's the most addictive otakushit?

whatever you like

think i've just found a kanji that has no JIS code lel

>>24768741
if the goal is to be constantly entertained, you'll be dissatisfied no matter what. just pick something you're drawn to that excites you at least some of the time, and then minimize distractions. i suggest picking something that costs money because you'll care about it more.

objectively the most addictive otakushit might be gacha games or something

I'm thinking of replaying chrono trigger in jp
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q9XTqQbuavI

I wonder if i'm ready

so.. where do i find this so called エロゲ that お前ら talk so much about

>>24770684
probably not. the cg is ugly and despite being made by the renowned wit studio the animation is cheap most of the time with lots of still frames. the mc is annoying (which is kind of the point but still) and it takes until late into the show before it starts to live up to its reputation. though askeladd is a great character.

>>24770684
>>24770792
damn your standards are high af lmao, i thought the animation was fine and it had some decent fight scenes. and yes askeladd is one of the most based characters in recent years.

let's just say vinland saga isn't making my 3x3 but it's the closest anime in years

also still running away from my question

your question is pointless. the fuck do you want? for me to point to a direction and say "there"? you're being annoying for no reason with that shit

you said many people, surely you can prove that, no? you wouldn't...lie for your braindead "argument"...on the internet, would you?

>>24771732
strange, i use anki to build that feeling. it seems that you're adding stuff that you already now to anki

>>24771774
do i really need to prove something as common sense as that? how does one even prove that? do you want me to post a fucking research or something? do you honestly doubt many people have trouble with vocab cards or are you just being annoying to try to win an argument? why do you think the debate even exist in the first place?

>>24771802
examples? me, i'm someone
there...

just make your dumb cards what suits you best lol
this is such a dumb argument

make anime cards

the use of sentence cards is a problem shared by a lot of people. i changed over to vocab cards after making about 2.9k and they feel better overall

we sure did need another meaningless card type argument that has no resolution and is ultimately nothing if you've been inputting

too much time to bother with it, it's just a beginner trap for people too scared to forget and is ultimately useless

>>24773717
never heard of that one but it looks pretty good ty
will definitely play it at some point

I'm working my way through the Tango N5 deck (about 5 days in, 10 new cards a day), and I'm finding the task of remembering the pronunciation of words exceedingly difficult. For most cards (80%?), after seeing the definition once, it's not too hard to remember what it means, because I did RRTK. I think if I was grading the cards 'Good' just on meaning based on the Kanji, I would only need to 'Learn' them once. So far remembering the meaning is EASY.

However, for a majority of cards of words that I don't already know from other things

That is to say, I'm failing new cards 10 or more times as I'm trying to learn them because I can not remember how they're pronounced. It's just not sticking. Memorizing random sounds (specifically for the dozens or maybe hundreds of cards that are single words, not sentences) with no context, or mnemonics or anything is proving difficult.

So what should I do?
