Guys I just thought about a crazy idea. What if someone developed an app for Apple's new VR headset that gave you real-time subtitles. I could go to Japan and I would finally have my subtitles. And for the dub fags you could also have it dub the translation in real-time in your own language. You could even pick the voice using AI. Imagine getting a real-life real-time dub from Ryan Gosling.

I just started going through my Core 2k deck again after 3 years of not touching it. I don't remember 95% of it, but the 5% of I do remember gets banished to the fucking shadow realm because the next time Anki will show them to me is in 4 years

>>44164514
why haven't you been watching anime

>>44164526
I have, just not with Japanese subs

>>44164538
why

things are grim if you forgot 95% of core2k, i regressed a little too but i remember 80% of readings i used to know after 3 years just need to hoverdrone to make sure i remembered correctly

Day 72: Oof today session was difficult.

>>44164544
I have tried and it was not enjoyable at my level

>>44164552
you will never learn japanese unfortunately.

The first time you watch anime without english won't be enjoyable no matter how many anki cards you do beforehand, you just have to get through it

>>44164557
Thanks, I will keep your advice in mind.

so what exactly is the difference between a ヒーロー and a ゆうしゃ (if that's how you write it) besides the setting in which they appear?

>>44165420
karatemans are stronger.

>>44165420
look, the only time's I've seen the word ゆうしゃ is in some third rate LNs translated as "hero", so what is it?

yea monogatari is easy

as the famous japanese proverb goes, it takes 10000 anki leaches to learn to understand anime and the best time to leach a card is ten years ago but the second best time is today so get to leaching bros

>>44167891
it's difficulty extrinsic to the use of language though. The language is simple and easy to understand

>>44167020
>saying seinen (logh, mushishi etc) is easier than shounen (which is aimed at 10 year olds, DBZ etc).

Here:

It has everything you need when it comes to kanji. Stroke order, meaning, words and compounds that the kanji is used in, etc.

>>44168062
Unfortunately. it has to be a streaming site because I'm using asbplayer to overlay Japanese subs that I can then mine anki decks with Yomichan. I tried aniwatch but for some reason asbplayer doesn't work on there. I'll probably have to use Crunchyroll on a trial if I can't find any alternatives.

I'm retarded and I'm about to do a radicals deck. I'm nearing the end of the Core 2.3k and memorizing kanji has yet to get easier, things hardly ever magically click in my head from all the previously learned kanji. I've had a way worse retention% on my mining deck than Core so I was thinking that breaking them down into radicals would mean I'd have an easier time getting back to my mined deck (which I've stopped adding new words to for a while). Call me names and stop me from going down this path.
No I'm not Tatsumoto nor is this a preface to shill his website, I'm legitimately retarded.

>>44168660
Ai companies are getting sued. Don’t worry :)

>>44168661
Learning radicals is hardly an investment, won't hurt in the long run.

>>44168661
I did a radical deck like 800 into the core 2k and feel like it helped.

Isn't it better to just do an actual Kanji Kunyomi / Onyomi deck when you're struggling with a vocab deck than radicals? I don't see the benefit of knowing the radical names compared to the information you can get from studying straight kanji.

post dekinai memes

>>44164335
This is slightly misleading. People bring up stroke order all the time but I think not enough people mention that what's most important is you need to draw the STROKES THEMSELVES correctly (i.e., draw each stroke in the correct direction (top to bottom, etc.), get when one stroke ends and another begins right, etc.). This is different from STROKE ORDER (i.e., draw this stroke first, then that stroke). A lot of sites support free stroke order lookup (including Jisho iirc) but you still have to draw the strokes themselves correctly or it won't work. In other words, these lookup by drawing tools are basically useless if you don't have basic knowledge of writing Kanji in the first place. Google translate's kanji lookup is the only one that can recognize drawn Kanji inputs by the shape alone regardless of how they're drawn AFAIK, but even that still only has like a 30% success rate. In short, if you don't know anything about writing Kanji just use radical lookup like what the anon I'm replying to said.

>>44168782
>>44168829
That's a relief. Would Kangxi Radicals happen to be the deck you used?
>>44168888
It's something I considered, but I think radicals will do the trick in acting as the crutch or a hint in helping remember the cards I've already done better. Not to mention it's only 200~ cards compared to 2k of them, but I'll take deck suggestions if you have any. Kanji Damage was what I was looking at.

>>44168949
>>44164945

>>44164419
First watch a few videos on the basics of it. This is just to get your "third ear" opened. After that simply listen. Eventually, you'll pick it up on your own. You don't need to subscribe to an entire patreon series on the subject. Also, always include audio on your cards if you're using SRS. Putting pitch accent diagrams of the words will help too, but the audio is more important.

wanking is really paying off!

Edit: sry anki is really paying off!

>>44168949
>30% success rate
i think that's a (You) problem. i've had 99% success with hand drawn kanji in google translate.

>>44168888
Kunyomi and onyomi are vast and meaningless. Actively studying them is the mark of a cripple. Meanwhile radicals are a small set of components that can massively help with differentiating and recalling kanji.

>>44164514
>the 5% of I do remember gets banished to the fucking shadow realm because the next time Anki will show them to me is in 4 years
You mean it's working as intended? Why would you need cards for words you don't forget?

>>44169210
>vast and meaningless
Bro what do you even think you're doing when you're differentiating and recalling kanji?

>>44169227
sure as shit not pulling from lists of kun/on yomi lol

>>44169255
So you're learning Japanese words without the sounds?

sound sisters...

>>44169270
retard bro...

>>44168949
>that still only has like a 30% success rate
Uh, that thing’s right like 95% of the time, even if you draw the kanji with your left hand.

treating on/kun like an arbitrary list of things to memorize is dumb
on is just learning the chinese pronunciation of the character, sometimes there are multiple possible versions for one character
kun is learning the meanings of the character, how that character is translated from chinese into japanese, knowing this lets you read chinese text in japanese and understand why certain words are written with certain characters

the practical application of isolated kanji study is 漢文 which can be applied into understanding the way the written japanese language is constructed, making things not seem as arbitrary and random but not necessary for simply understanding it as a modern language, most modern native speakers of the language do not even have this knowledge

if you want to be some kanken 1 guy and not just be memorizing lists you'll never use then you should study 漢文

What do you think about her idea of reading anime and listening to the audio on loop? (As opposed to linnies and vinnies) Is it bad if I reread anime I watched in English? Would knowing the meaning beforehand cause the immersion to be of lower quality?

>>44170119

nta but the universal rule is this: if a crutch is unnecessary for you to comprehend the text relatively quickly, then it decreases the immersion quality. if it is necessary for that, then it increases it.

>>44165140
japanese can take criticism. you just have to first acknowledge their point of view so it lessens the blow to their ego.

>>44170974
Man, that's embarrassing. How could lil bro think that linnies constituted real literature? The fact that light novels include illustrations shows that the material is aimed at a young adult audience. I would think myself quite ashamed if I were lil bro.

pretty sure books about particle physics include illustrations as well

>>44175392
only made it to ep 3, what made you watch so long?

>>44175392
yea i agree that shinji's reaction is not actually realistic at all. and i think the people who claim it's realistic are severely online and depressed losers. but i still found it interesting until an episode after shinji's evangelion goes berserk. the show became unbearable after that. but it's been like 10 years so who fucking knows maybe i had the wrong mindset and it's a masterpiece.

>>44175362
no

>>44175403
my friend kept telling me it's going to get good any time and i trusted him. I've never been as disrespected by a piece of media as in episode 5 when shinji takes his angsty train ride and it ends woth LITERALLY 50 seconds of one picture of him sitting on the trainstation with cicada sounds in the background because the lazy bastards ran out of budget and sub 85s thought it was so deep and emotional
it's been more than a dozen years and i'm still seething

I stream during japanese hours, so I want to increase my viewership and play games in japanese to get JP viewers and attract ultra weebs that think I'm special because I speak japanese
Is what I tell people on stream, the real reason is that I was touched by the kindness of Japanese people when I stayed over there for a holiday, and I want to be able to one day talk and spread kindness the same way they did to me, even if they didn't actually mean it. Also I hate when shit gets localized cause they usually flub the interpretation of whatever is being localized

The original final 2 episodes are kinda rough, you wanna swap to end of evangelion instead unless you care about completionism.

>>44175452
are breasts genuinely that pointy irl?

I got your stroke order right here *unziiips*

my stroke order is up and down, if you catch my drift

futari no obaachamas were sittin' on a bench in a park and a streaker comes up and flashes them. one obaachama had a stroke, but the other couldn't reach.

my sister's japanese friend did this exact same thing to me

Japanese (know some but not fluent in the language) and my family and I recently moved to Japan. We've been busy and originally only introduced ourselves to a couple of the neighbors (who are also American).
Two weeks pass by and we finally decided to introduce ourselves to the other neighbors that are close by (Sunday around 2:30pm). I believe we should have done it sooner but it wasn't the priority at the time (two small kids makes things harder). In any case, it went like this (I forgot to say "hajimemashite" for each one, I don't know how important that was)
First guy seemed like we woke him from his nap or he had a hangover, possibly. I told him we moved in, apologized for intruding on his time, and he looked confused when I told him we had a small gift for him. He didn't accept it initially which left me confused. Didn't give me his name till I asked for it.
Second guy seemed pleasantly surprised and confused on the gift. He didn't look like he wanted to accept it initially. Also needed to be asked his name.
In both cases I said name and said "yoroshiku onegaishimasu".
Not sure why it was so awkward. I don't know if I didn't say something properly or if we had been here too long already. Or maybe it was just the time and the day. Any thoughts? (Or maybe I am just awkward)

I will never believe someone can have trouble with katakana if they read.

Lads I'm not sure Hanahira! is really ticking the boxes for engaging content. Feels too much like a retarded lesbian and her caretaker.

dunno how tf you're accidentally highlighting whole sentences so much, maybe your touchscreen is trash? kindle sucking at dealing with highlighting and looking up different verb forms is pretty bad though, yeah.

ありがとう先輩、よろしくお願いします

>>44177867
did you even install JMDict? also you can avoid highlighting by making a small selection first and then refining it however you want by first letting go and then touching back and dragging the anchors.
but yes it's faster to read with yomichan until you don't need many lookups. did you expect stock firmware designed for an international product that has little to do with language learning to be able to compete with something made by an autistic specifically for learning Japanese?

>>44178350
You would think that the words would be "separated" properly since this is a book bought from Japanese Amazon. I'll look up JMDict thank you

I never thought of trying this. I'm tired of reading at my desk all day. What model do you guys use?

>>44176700
Just do it everyday for 1 month and you wont forget about it

>>44178726
I use the latest Kindle Basic. Instant lookup still works 70% of the time so it's still better than manually writing or taking pictures of kanji, but it's still really far from ideal.

i understand 負けず嫌い intuitively but not logically

>>44178726
Kobo libra 2 with koreader is good, it parses text for highlighting similar to yomichan making dictionary lookup very easy.
