How can I make watching my downloaded anime more convenient? I think the biggest hurdle is going through the windows file directory. I wish it was more like the netflix interface but once i find the anime it opens up mpv so i can use my add ons.

Well it's more sensible to view stuff like

not really as verbs ending the sentence but rather a sentence ending particle because they basically spin the rest of the entire sentence to a different meaning.

Sup, fansubber here, wish I knew where to get JP subs for currently airing shows... Do you need to be ripping directly from a TV cable feed in Japan or something?

It'd just be nice if everyone in the world wasn't dependent on one Ukranian website with a forgetful owner... (no offense kitsunekko, you're awesome when you're actually up)

FYI it's not so much the sub content itself, I can understand everything by ear just fine. It's more for the timings so I don't have to do all that myself. Makes the process smoother so I can get the subs out more quickly.

And occasionally there's the odd word I don't know, or a character will yell/mumble something that I can't make out, so JP subs are a lifesaver there too.

If anyone is an uploader to kitsunekko (before it died again), do you upload anywhere else? Thanks!

Not easy, when you can compare yourself with the other people here at the same journey and see, face the reality, that you are dumber and slower than them. The easiest metric is today's anki which says 294 cards in 90 minutes. In the same time frame normal, average person did 600.

>>42159721
the real cope is that once you're over 25 your life doesn't matter
so it doesn't matter if you succeed or fail. no matter what you do you'll never catch up, so there's no stakes.

should follow my own advice but it's a hard blackpill to swallow. it's like people who are cripples who can't walk. they can't compare themselves to athletes

stop crying, stop thinking your';e special for not being remarkably talented as if everyone else in here is a genius, stop attention whoring, stop despairing, stop being so fucking neurotic. just move on to the next sentence when you don't understand. keep listening at least a little every day, that's really important to getting used to the language.

>>42160972
>stop thinking your';e special for not being remarkably talented as if everyone else in here is a genius
there's a difference between genius and being well behind the curve.

when you're a shitter you have to live with it for the rest of your life. you'll never catch up and you have to endure that fact for the entire time you're in any journey of self improvement. you have to constantly meet the people you could have been if you didn't fuck up again and again because 90% of the people that didn't give up within the first few months are exactly that

idk if you play league but it's like you fuck up the early game and you're constantly trying to catch up from behind, there's no goal besides "catching up" or "fixing mistakes" anymore when you're old and slow

>>42161119
wow I can't believe it another depressiontard who plays league despite not enjoying it lmao, I've already told you this in another thread but i"ve met multiple people like you

>>42161119
look anon we both know you aren't quite as retarded as you wish you were
japanese takes a lot of time, and you just arent putting it in
now its clear you have time cause you write these essays on being a failure a lot
if you spent that time immersing on anything at all, youd be... well, ahead of where you are
i think you are using these exchanges as an easy way to procrastinate on what you know you should be doing
good luck bro, gonna leave the convo there, don't reply with "im doing all this and whomever did less and so on and so forth", the bottom line is you aren't doing enough to get what you want, and you wont get what you want until you do
youll know you are doing enough when you get what you want
>>42161170
terrible soul sucking game, don't get how people can stand spending 20 to 50 minutes with neurotic suicidal schizos spamming about how retarded they/the jungler/riot/mid/top/support/the carry are

>>42161199
fun games have fun chat though, like Quake or TF2 or Mordhau

>>42161206
good point, maybe it is the format itself thats cancer

諷調

>>42161219
it's the format of team games that make the individual helpless. individual games or team games where you're still powerful and can have fun doing shti even if your team is getting rolled = mordhau, TF2, Tribes, Battlefield, RTS games, BRs, etc.
team games where you are part of a machine and you don't even get to play if the whole thing isn't working and people mad and serious as fuck all the time = MOBAs, hero shooters

>>42161199
>now its clear you have time cause you write these essays on being a failure a lot
they take like 2-3 minutes, usually come right or after i start doing japanese

>when you get what you want

another 0% retention day

>>42161621
gonna make it!
...i think...

read 900k today

I hate long sentences by the time I finish reading the end i already forgot what was the beginning was about

What's with the 言 kanji where the top line points up?

みなさん、おはよう！お元気ですか？

This could be an odd request. I have a bachelor degree in japanese that provided a N3 level. Thing is, I didn’t actually practice my japanese in the last two years. I went to one of the best uni for this language in Europe, therefore most of the grammar is still stuck in my brain but unfortunately kanji reading and speaking/writing level went downhill. As of now, I think I’m at a N5 level.

I really want to get back and finally make this language my own once and for all, but I don’t want to study it on school grammar books anymore. I need suggestions for books (whether it’s an exercise book or novels) , youtube channels, series, movies that can help me improve my kanji/vocabulary, something that could help me improve and make me fluent with a “everyday” japanese and not an academic one.

Thank you and happy holidays!

>>42161894
I have the same with English, although it’s usually non fiction

>>42161921
kill yourself :DDD

>>42161170
done with league forever. wasting my youth on it is one of the reasons i'm in this mess

>I've already told you this in another thread but i"ve met multiple people like you
you say it every time i show up but what makes you so great? if you want me gone then a more effective way of removing these people you allegedly can't stand to interact with is to simply block, ignore, and report every time you see me, so why aren't you doing that?

>>42161199
>i think you are using these exchanges as an easy way to procrastinate on what you know you should be doing
this shit goes on in my head 24/7 and if i lose the battle against it i end up just shitting up the thread.

>youll know you are doing enough when you get what you want
that is not possible anymore. everything i've been achieving in life is completely invalidated by "yeah you're almost fucking 30 so no shit, you barely scraped by"

>>42161969
think that's just a thing with reading. i catch myself realizing i'm not actually reading just looking at the words and have to reread it

>>42155496
still hoping there's someone who knows how to get this script working so the beep plays
>>42158098
>>42158731
low retention is just the norm for me. when I see someone get 90%+ retention in anki I see them as some sort of superhuman.

think I might look into getting a timer for when I'm reading books too, so I don't get stuck on pages and zone out. this is a new discovery!

>>42161993
>i catch myself realizing i'm not actually reading just looking at the words and have to reread it
that just means you're not engaged, surely

i wish i had that problem, i get too into stuff where I just skip through it to see what happens without understanding everything and i don't learn that much

>>42161995
>when I see someone get 90%+ retention in anki I see them as some sort of superhuman.

no they are just putting words into anki that they already know

>>42161993
Same. It’s like I don’t have enough RAM for it

>>42161902
why does the "a" on my computer have the loop on top instead of to the right?

Can someone upload converted html manga with mokuro? It doesn’t work on my potato. I really need it, honestly

なんで僕のあたまよくない？？？？？

>>42161921
dont have a reddit account so i cant reply but this guy needs 新完全マスター and lots of reading

>>42162086
just feel it out

>>42161995
>>42162055
many factors go into getting a high retention. i have 90%+ retention for young cards for example, but for rare mature cards it's probably around 60-70%.
how many cards you have matters a lot, as does your anki settings and what kind of cards you add. but lastly how you grade yourself has a big impact as well.
so its basically useless to compare retention to other people.

>>42162086
tmw has a library of it, no dekinai from this shithole is gonna help you

>>42162013
>that just means you're not engaged, surely
yeah, but there has to be something in between "fully focusing to the point of exhaustion on every sentence" and "passively reading posts and getting the gist of it"

>>42162073
i wonder maybe it's because we don't even immerse in the english enough.
when i have to read papers and documents for work it often takes me 10 minutes of skimming it repeatedly before i realize i'm not actually reading

reading is actually a really hard skill, i kinda get why everyone was illiterate in the old days now

>>42162129
what’s tmw

>>42162112
>how many cards you have matters a lot, as does your anki settings and what kind of cards you add. but lastly how you grade yourself has a big impact as well.
None of these things matter. I spent ages playing with anki settings and it's placebo benefit; you get the same retention.

yes of course if you do sentence cards your retention will be different, but nobody is doing sentence cards. everyone grades themselves roughly the same and this doesn't effect retention much either.

>>42162132
Oh no, I don’t skim through. I just focus on each word. It’s like I focus on the leaves, but I need to see whole forest you know?

>>42162156
not to mention that I click "good" if I understand just the reading of a word (regardless of meaning), which is about as generous as it gets for grading. that's what people on here told me to do

>>42162151
I don’t think it has what I’m looking for? I’m looking for yomichan compatible manga. They only have yotsuba on bilingual manga website

>>42162200
That question sign wasn’t intentional lol

christmas immersion for today
https://japaneseasmr.com/72989/

>>42162181
i only click good for only the meaning or the reading if the word is relatively new, ~20-30 days or so. otherwise it gets again'd

>>42162156
My retention for mature sentence cards is 90%. For word cards, 81%.

>>42157441
looks like you're on the right path towards understanding that manga is not reading

>>42161921
go to ANN news channel, add a bunch of interesting videos that catch your eye and just watch. Bonus if you clip moments from it and import into anki or supermemo

has anyone actually used supermemo since the 80s

>>42162168
>Oh no, I don’t skim through.
i skim by habit and have to turn my brain on to focus 100%

>I just focus on each word. It’s like I focus on the leaves, but I need to see whole forest you know?
it just takes multiple passes. reading a long sentence is like reading a paragraph there's probably multiple ideas being put in there
full comprehension is so exhausting though. my full reading speed for work stuff is like 1 page per 30-60 minutes and it still leaves my exhausted and i STILL have to review my notes before i talk to my boss about my findings, and i still miss some things

Should I stop using yomichan? I feel like I’d be able to remember words faster cuz my brain will be too lazy to look up words. But at the same time, I don’t even know that many words so I still have to look up almost every word.

yes just learn like a baby technology is evil

if you spend more time making your anki cards than doing them something's obviously not going well

>>42162277
Oh, that sounds awful honestly. Maybe you don’t have inner voice?

>>42162288
huh? It takes at least 10 seconds to read the japanese definition when making them and only 3 seconds to review them, you're the messed up one

>>42162275
I use it as a YouTube player to clip words I want to learn, this is from yesterday.

>>42162330
>romaji

wtf bro?

>>42162330
You have a big family

>>42162333
the clips have the narrator reading text with subtitles, of course I'm gonna mix romaji to name the card

>>42162355
wake wakannai giron

>>42162055
this, i saw that one youtuber who's been mining 20 cards per day for over 4 years mine 不xx　even though he already knew the word without the 不
of course those guys are going to have 95% retention lol, it's not like they're benefitting from it

>>42162363
but 不 can play tricks. I'd read this as ふきみ 100% of the time if i didn't mine it 不気味

>>42162367
that's a perfect example of a word you SHOULD mine though, cause it has an irregular reading
I'm not talkign about those, and that's not what he mined in the video

not joking, retard. Clear your cache or some shit, and make sure your on the right website. It's back up, so get some hot cocoa and under a blanket while you watch some cozy anime with jp subs.

holy shit why so much dedication to this troll, just go try listening for once bro

going to practice my listening daily from now on so that this fiasco won't happen again

>>42162423
>>42162428
Is this reverse trolling?

So the 2022 kituneko incident proved that the /djt/ method is great for reading but cripples your listening right? What method works for listening?

>>42162454

>>42162453
>>42162446
i'm literally looking at it right now, name an anime with subs and i'll screenshot the page

>>42162460
that's the theory but it's be proven unsound

>>42162466
yes i can use web archive and inspect element too, you aren't as smart and funny as you think you are

>>42162473
naa you're trolling now

>>42162478
i accept your concession

>>42162467
No, it doesn’t. Reading is the best way to increase vocabulary, especially in Japanese

>>42162484
then why does all the djters scream and whale when the subtitles go down if they should theoretically be able to listen just as well as they can read?

>>42162481
i'm not even arguing, the website is up
you propose a way of me proving it

Do you guys mind not typing in Japanese? It's cringe when you do it and I don't want to absorb incorrect input, wrong sentence syntax, and incorrect vocabulary usage into my brain. I always blur my vision when I'm reading these threads to avoid this, but it's getting annoying with the incorporation of your 拙い　Japanese. Thank you.

>>42162654
kind of a weird choice to get into language learning when reading is so unpleasant for you. what do you want Japanese for? for me it's just the media so the way I learn it and the reward I get for learning it are the same activity, for you it seems like a randomly selected goal you're masochistically pursuing

I have finally decided that I will start learning. I got hiragana down a decade ago but like with everything I do I lost motivation and procrastinated. But it's finally time to invest again. I can do it.

you say that like 30 is young

>>42162892

>>42162920
context? can't tell if this is a win or lose for the rtkers

rtkers always lose

>rtk
It's the best thing I could have done. Learning readings and meanings and whatnot, when you can't even remember the characters themselves, is stupid. You need some kind of mental anchor to stick all that additional information to. And that's where RTK comes in. It will teach you nothing else but how to recognize individual kanji but each and every kanji will be fucking cemented in your mind so hard you will remember it even after months or years of not seeing that kanji.
Obviously if you are able to remember those weird scribbles naturally, it's not needed, but this is not a skill every westerner has. i have found a source of rtk shill pasta

RTK is a waste of time but I wouldn't regret it if I did it
it's like delaying your Japanese by 3 months but when you finally start you have a small boost I guess, I imagine it's kinda nice

>>42162916
Holodex? Do you mean like those anki decks people post?

maybe the real remember was the kanji we met along the way

>>42162945

just reading all day does this too thoughever, with the added benefit of actually learning japanese

>>42162724

The only anki deck that might be worth doing is RTK.

>>42162944
no no its a website chock full of japanese native content of the highest level, some of it in real time, https://holodex.net/

Imagine spending a bachelor's degree worth of time to get n3 when you could reach the same level in 6 months by casually doing some anki and immersing a little. You don't even have to immerse 6 hours a day and do 50 cards a day in anki to lap retards taking traditional classes, even the bare minimum will do.

you spend so much time running from your real enemy, yourself.

30 is pretty young anon, based on average life expectancy you still have like 40-50 years left to live
If you want to know Japanese at some point during those remaining ~45 years you will have to put your nose to the grindstone

>>42163276
you can keep it up on the second monitor and use yomi chan as you play (it has a hidden pagination element at the bottom)

>>42163289
You play it normally and look stuff up in the text dump if you need to yomichan it

>>42163323

Of course no woman is perfect, nobody is perfect
But if youre pretending that its impossible for a relationship to last a lifetime then thats obviously false

because you're the level 1 rick and morty redditor who copes with his situation by convincing himself that nothing good in the world that he lacks is real anyway, most outgrow it by 16 but everyone's seen this type a million times

You said there is no perfect woman who will fall in love with you until you die
I agree theres no perfect woman, nobody is perfect
But there are many relationships that last a whole life

>>42163104

i don't really know what that means in this analogy

>>42163287
>30 is pretty young anon
30 is about the time you're supposed to have shit figured out by. ideally you're established and set up by this age

>>42163312
>>be full stack dev
i assume everyone on 4chan is a neet or a dev until proven otherwise
>i dunno bros i feel like im already old like old enough to die soon not sure if this is normal
think it might be normal. that no matter what you do you can choose between feeling old since you've done a lot of shit or feeling old since you haven't done enough

>>42163676
Coping is when instead of accepting reality you convince yourself that going to the gym will fix everything.
>>42163681
Like what? 1 percent?

You act like I’m demotivating him when in reality I’m telling him how it is. I won’t reply anymore, it’s Japanese thread after all

>>42163705
I dont really understand the arbitrary designation of 30 as a benchmark for anything
“Ideally” you would be established and set up the minute youre fucking born but that rarely happens
Like obviously you should work hard and get yourself setup as quickly as you reasonably can, but life is complicated

Remember no matter how hard it is to keep studying everyday, each time you successfully study is one step closer to go to japan and run a cafe along with dumb JKs

>>42163723
>1 percent
More than that, idk exact numbers, that would require perusing some stats on the internet and shit which I dont care to do atm tbqh
>im telling him how it is
Same here
No woman is perfect, but you could find a long term relationship that lasts if you work to become the type of person who deserves that

>>42163724
If you don't make it by 30 you're extremely unlikely to ever make it. When you're still in your 20s you can cope and tell yourself that you're a late bloomer and still have time. The older you are, the harder it gets to make friends, get a girlfriend, make moves in your career, get in shape, etc. If you failed during the easiest time in your life to do these things, why would you succeed now that things are twice as hard for even normal people?

>>42163724
30 years is a long time. even if you only count the adult years you had 12 years to get your shit together
if you couldn't do it in 10 years what makes the next 10 years different? you ended up behind the curve for a reason and you both have to fight the reasons for your shittiness and the decay of age as your body is past its prime and breaks down, all for the worse reward of making it in your advanced age

>>42163868
>if you dont make it by 30 youre extremely unlikely to ever make it
Thats retarded and I dont even know what “making it” means in this context
>the older you are the harder it gets to make friends, get a girlfriend
Are you basing that on personal experience? That varies from person to person, I have not personally experienced an increase in difficulty forming relationships with others as I’ve gotten older
>…harder it gets to […] make moves in your career, get in shape
So what? you can still do those things
>if you failed when you were young, why would you succeed now that youre older?
Because youre older? And youve hopefully learned from your mistakes and can adjust your approach in order to make progress

>>42163879
>couldnt do it in 10 years
What is “it”? Getting in shape? Learning Japanese? Forming a long term relationship with a woman?
It should go without saying that you arent going to make progress in anything unless you prioritize it and approach it in a disciplined way
I dont personally think that if you didnt prioritize something in your 20s that is magically becomes an impossible thing to prioritize thereafter
Maybe you didnt give a shit about forming a long term relationship in your 20s because you wanted to stack savings and focus on your career
I dont see how that suddenly makes it impossible to adjust your priorities for your 30s and work on forming a long term relationship with someone
Just because you didnt achieve something in your 20s doesnt magically make it an impossible task for you and I dont understand the defeatist attitude around here

since when did this thread fill with women? The clock on your womb is ticking.

>>42163957
Fill it up then, faggot

throwing my two cents in, you should have something or clearly working towards something by 30
that doesn’t mean that you won’t be successful later in life
there are extenuating circumstances, but that’s on you to work harder or be luckier
my father was pretty much fucked in life at 30, he managed to turn it around, but he’s a more enduring man than i could ever be

注意Don't look up 火傷 on google images, scary stuff will show up man注意

>>42163903
>Because youre older?
what benefit does that bring?

>>42163922
>What is “it”?
identifying what matters and attaining it, so all of the above, it it matters to you

>because you wanted to stack savings and focus on your career
your scenario is about a man who focused on one thing and therefore made it in that thing instead of another. obviously someone who achieved financial independence by 30 and probably has his shit together is not the kind of ngmi that i'm talking of.

i'm talking about men who drop out of college and go go back at like 25, people who can't hold down a job and are NEETs, people who set the same goals every year and never meet them
when they turn 30 what indication is there that any of them will have any ability to succeed? their past history is one of failure, what makes the next thing different?

>>42164020
>that doesn’t mean that you won’t be successful later in life
which is worth half as much as success early in life. you've missed out on the real prize in life so you're fighting to make sure you get something even if it's shitty rather than nothing

>>42164061
Reminds me of KyoAni day.
>[An eyewitness] lady said between sobs, "Someone left in the building was begging for help from a window. I couldn't tell if they were a man or a woman. Their mouth was bright red against their blackened body covered completely in soot, even their face. All I could tell was that they were crying out "HELP! HELP" again and again. Soon they stopped moving against the window and burned into it like a shadow. Then I heard the din of ambulance sirens and helicopters flying by."

>>42164096
>which is worth half as much as success early in life
yeah, you would have been one of the people that died

Is this actual cuck shit lmfao

>>42164110
don't we all die one day

>>42164096
>what benefit does that bring
Experience
>their past history is one of failure, what makes the next thing different
Idk maybe they mean it this time
Succeeding in shit is about discipline and strategy, over time you can accrue these skills but it requires effort
Obviously if someone half-asses everything in life and never really tries theyre never going to achieve anything
Im just saying its possible to go from being a failure/neet type of person to being a disciplined/motivated type of person with effort
>youve missed out on the real prize in life
I dont think youre in a position to lecture on the meaning of life, just saying

>>42164126
yeah but you would have died at 30 because you don't have grit for when things go bad

Reminder that even literal retards are literate in Japan. If they can do it, so can you.
