You don't know your place, not even as a foolish servant to say such things.

If your タマ were crushed, you wouldn't do more than drop dead like a miserable lowlife however.

I'm getting close to being all done with wanikani, can't take it anymore, there has to be a better way.

>>33527335
push through!! you are close. it's best to stick with something even if it's not the most efficient possible.

>>33527335
i'm halfway done and it's gotten a lot easier. i level up every week consistently. the trick is to pay attention to get the 4hr and 8hr reviews on the first day you learn something. also cheat on the first two reviews of a kanji if you forget it. you'll remember it by guru and after, or at least i do.

is wanikani just a meme or it's actually good?

stick to something and you'll gmi eventually
have fun doing 10 years of wanikani though

>>33527306

pretty much

>>33527388
definitely has problems but it's worked for me. can read vast majority of kanji i see and usually correctly guess reading and meaning of words i don't know. i recommend it to normies irl because there's no way they'd figure out how to setup anki and stick with it.

Memory takes tremendous energy. The energy used in an effort to maintain the sense of who we are right now prevents us from discovering what we might become. Thus the normal tight hold (neurosis) we have over who we are, our place in the world, and our past...keeps kundalini at bay. Once lit however kundalini dissolves our neurosis, our pain-body, accumulated stress and trauma, and does so by essentially flooding the limbic brain with bliss making us somatically forgetting our past. All parts of the body can experience the flow of bliss.

>>33527460
nice

anyone else practice kanji names by combining it with their gravure and jav hobbies?

I'm getting so I can recognize all the common Japanese surnames

>>33527598
yeah thats pretty based ngl

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_Japanese_surnames

wow turns out the most common names are easy af to read

yeah i finished the name deck in one day that shits easy af

>>33525240
word on the front, but on the off chance you dont immediately know the answer, you can toggle it to a sentence card with a keyboard shortcut

its designed to make you spend as little time in anki as possible
if you fail a regular word card, you will read through the glossary and context sentence on the back of the card anyway
this gives you a chance to still pass it in the same time, lessening your total review load
in the next interval you might not even need the sentence anymore

>if you fail a regular word card

you didnt understand how it works, i made a time comparison to regular word cards
i dont hit good on cards i fail

dno about this fallback card thing but looks useless

>>33527890
>this gives you a chance to still pass it in the same time, lessening your total review load
>in the next interval you might not even need the sentence anymore
How should this be read?
Fail word card -> Turn it into easy mode sentence card -> Recognise the word because it's now a sentence card -> Hit pass.?

pretty sure a light novel is just a novel. they're not even shorter

damn the learning curve is steep from anime/manga to LNs
i cant read 4 pages without my head hurting bros...

>>33527931
dont immediately recognize word card -> turn it into sentence -> maybe recognize the word now who really knows
its to prevent you from spending too much time on a card trying to recall something

sure, you might have still passed the word card on its own after 5-10 seconds of thinking
i know there are addons that will automatically fail cards for you if you spend too long on them, but its not my cup of tea

https://youtu.be/cU1OK9w1L_E

damn i did better than this guy. gmi

>>33527974
you'll get used to it

>>33527844
better to cheat and keep progress going rather than getting buried with reviews that never get cleared up and be stuck on the same level for 6 months like I am

When mining, vocab cards or sentence cards?

senteces if you want to make it

>>33528147
fallback cards, so both

>>33528163
I did 500 from 2.3k, sadly i lost my deck so i decided to say fuck it and start consooming and mining.
I will probably mine a fuckton, which one those the 2 types of cards do you think i would profit more from bro?

>>33528186
if youre a beginner sentences are probably better for you

>>33528064
>dont immediately recognize word card -> turn it into sentence -> maybe recognize the word now who really knows
And then you hit fail, right? Because you didn't know the word.

>>33528147

>>33528147
dont mine at all, 90% of words mined you will learn by reading more

peoples decks are full of garbage they don't need lmao

>>33528217
>literal who opinion
I mean i myself think sentence cards are better than vocab but my point is, since i am so new, i will probably mine a fuckton, and making sentence cards is slow as fuck, so is reviewing them.
>>33528216
Yeah i've also been thinking that, i mean for fucks sake i have to look up almost every word that i am reading.
I just worry about ending up forgetting shit.

>>33528214
if you immediately know it while reading the sentence you hit good
if you still dont or would have to think longer to get it you hit again

>>33528242
>if you immediately know it while reading the sentence you hit good

i actually like matt solution of you only turn leeches into sentence cards

feels good to not be doing anki anymore

>>33528271
great advice like that is why people donate to him.

>>33528268
not him but in tell me in what context will u need to know what a word means without having a sentence around it to give context lol

>>33528277
>feels good not learning japanese anymore

>>33528268
oh no, you're comprehending the word!

>>33528239
if you dont know japanese then dont go around giving advice you fucking retard, shut the fuck up.

>>33528271
i think the good advice is to do sentence cards in the first place and just pass any leeches so you see them

>>33528285
>why people donate to him.

umm, no, it is because they are fools

>>33528271
yeah i only turn cards i fail at least once into fallback cards as well because im too lazy to transcribe the context sentence from a picture or audio

>>33527952
they should rename them to bad novels

>>33528289

>>33528299
I am not giving advice i merely said what i think.
Sorry if i think for myself instead of dicking sucking whatever E-celeb it was that you posted bro.

how come that the thread suddenly has so many wanikani shills?

>>33528405
its impossible

think one of my salivary glands was clogged for years and it magically unclogged yesterday evening or something
woke up with this salty taste coming from the left side of my cheek, checked to see if it was blood but no it was just spit
now i have these bursts of saliva production that taste kinda salty too

>>33528401
I see.

>>33528295
Is the sentence randomly generated or is it the same one each time?
Chances are you will already know what the word is before you even reach it due to recalling it after reading the first few words of the sentence.

randomly generated sentence cards when

>>33528380

>>33528547
it was like 2 days

>>33528526
Not completely random, but there are Japanese packs that typically have 3-5+ example sentences.
Can be set so a random one of those appears as your sentence, but not all of them are accurate/not all words have an entry, so you'd need a fallback.

>>33528616
About a week. >>33404529

>>33528498
just knowing "ah, its this word" alone isnt enough to pass the card and it happens with pure word cards too
im sure you have one or more cards where you think, this is the card i always get this part wrong, etc

you still need to know the reading and meaning and if you can do that you should pass it
it shouldnt be a problem for you if you see it outside of anki at that point

>>33528649
npe
wheres thread number autist when u need him

>cards

card choice doesn't matter if you're using animecards and actually reading the sentences when you fail

carving my cards into stone tablets so i only mine things that are actually important

>>33528723
this but where it ends after matter

>>33528723
true

forgot to shift+delete 100 000 files and now its gonna take fucking hours to empty my recycle bin

>>33528723
yeah thats a fallback card except you can also read the sentence on the front and have a chance of passing it in the same time frame

want a perma jc gf bros

>>33528723
i doubt anyone actually does this

>>33528759
i do, half the time the picture and first second of audio is enough to jog my memory but it's cool

Why are jp subs so rare? Are there no deaf people in japan? Or people with noisy surroundings?

honestly i might try it out. my retention rate is like 80% but its probably because i havent started reading yet

If you just mean the block of 5 in a row, yeah, that was about two days. But it's been going on longer than that.

glad were inventing all these new card types so people dont permanently cripple themselves by doing premature input

>input
>crippling

>>33528846
it is if you do it without a solid foundation of 15,000 words

mass output approach
no input until atleast 30k words

>>33528798
here's what i use for them
https://pastebin.com/pAVvqLPd

you dont need to edit your collection at all just the card type
if the sentence field is empty it shows up as a regular word card

i also use this extension
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1642550423
so my shift keyboard shortcut works without hassle

Sentence cards are only good if they're [cloze] and you need to type in the word.

・字幕作成に手間やコストがかかる

its hard to find a vn that doesnt have at least one porn scene

do animecards only mine +1 sentences too or how are you meant to understand the sentence when you fail it in the week if there are 2-3 unknown words in it?

i can remember context from novels i mined 9 months ago, why do people say audio and pictures are required?

>>33529374

play more games
watch more anime

dont grind
if you grind you will indeed end up like nuke

I've actually always wondered why people here call others ESLs when they can't even write with proper punctuation and capitalization.

yay... so it is fairi academy & magical sandbox for everyfairi... so it is hard to describe without fairi language because the game is ultra dreamy itself。Bridge to Terabithia was one of the main inspirations and I hope that it will be not just a game for a computer but something ultra yay and magical for a real world too＾

My experience interacting with foreign women in Japan is pretty limited, like less than 10 overall, but everyone that I have met is a legitimate nutcase. And this is coming from someone who isn't an incel. The ones on YouTube all have problems too.

She's kind of weird. In a way I feel bad for her because it's very clear that she doesn't like Japan so much and she tried to move away to other countries multiple times now but each time her views take a dip and then she comes back to Japan to recover her channel. She doesn't have any skills to get a real job so unfortunately for her she needs to stay in Japan to earn an income through YouTube.

I know there are millions of Japanese otaku, and it seems like every other Japanese is trying to learn English, so it shouldn't be that hard, right?

you cannot become japanese oh my god please i hope when you move to japan you're beaten into the ground

>>33530306
I fully agree. Of course Japan is interesting but these people make their channels with the basis of living in Japan being their sole personality trait and they often share just downright false information. I used to watch a lot of jvlogs before I moved to Japan because I thought that it would give me an idea of what life here is like, but after I actually came to Japan it just became very apparent to me that they didn't know what they're talking about and that Japan is just like anime (kinda).

>>33530366
no one claimed otherwise

Well, anime is made by Japanese people and thus it's influenced by Japanese culture. Surely you have noticed the little cultural tidbits in anime, no? Of course Japan isn't like Naruto or whatever but even shows like that have little bits of culture thrown in (Well, Naruto in particular has a lot of cultural influence but it's more fantasy than reality which isn't the bits I'm referring to).

If you want to check out an anime that shows Japan pretty well, check out Bakuman. There's this scene in the beginning that I really like where Mashiro is running through his neighborhood and it's one of those neighborhoods where the streets are thin alleys just barely wide enough for a single kei car and all of the houses have stone walls around him. One of the houses he runs past has plastic water bottles sitting in front of the gate to keep cats away. It's little atmospheric stuff like this and also character behaviors.

This is bloggy but it's surprisingly a big topic and I'm trying not to write too much.

>>33530460
yes

>>33530378
in my case i came to understand on a deep level how fucking depressing japanese ppl r and how depressing the way they live is and i really came to understand how ppl go out in the woods and fuckin kill themselves

im sure if i was luckier or just stayed within the velvet ropes for tourists i could have let other experiences shape my thoughts but i mean japanese ppl in normal reigi basically apologize for literally existing to each other

i feel like everything in that country is built on sadness and loneliness and its too much for me lmao i just saw too much emptiness

a lot of ppl will work hard at what they do and put on a smile and u can have a nice conversation with somebody but theres just a overwhelming sense to me that something is just wrong w. how a lot of ppl live

this is ironically enough how i also came to understand even in learning japanese theres still an unbreakable barrier that u cant ever hope to cross these ppl in their hearts r truly isolated

the beautiful thing is when u get japanese who come overseas and get woke and a bit westernized its like the light returns to their eyes and they gain their humanity and i can connect with them but the inverse is true i cant go to japan and lose my humanity to be more like them

-Am becoming Japanese (Legally, I'm not delusional)

well bc of their totem pole system and how families operate japan is just not a poor country so that does directly equate to higher standard of living in general

>in my case i came to understand on a deep level how fucking depressing japanese ppl r and how depressing the way they live is and i really came to understand how ppl go out in the woods and fuckin kill themselves
Depression is a problem that isn't unique to Japan. Aren't you American? The suicide rate here is only a fraction of a point higher than it is in America and the "deaths of despair" count is much lower here than in the US so if anything I would argue that Americans are much more depressed.

>i feel like everything in that country is built on sadness and loneliness and its too much for me lmao i just saw too much emptiness
Have you considered seeking help from a mental health professional?

>the beautiful thing is when u get japanese who come overseas and get woke and a bit westernized
What you're basically saying is that after living in America they become somewhat American. I've heard them referred to as "iJapanese" (international Japanese) and personally I don't like this type of person, they act just like Americans.

The only people who say "you can't become Japanese" are foreigners and the weirdo Japanese people who only ever hang around foreigners. The LDP (ruling party of Japan) and other conservative nationals tend to define Japanese by citizenship, not blood ties, and this is true for the official laws as well.

>>33530605
lmao based. This video is still funny every time I watch it. Thankfully I'm nothing like that.

>>33530638
Foreign media that writes about Japan is such a joke.

>>33530644
Idk anything about shinto, I just know how the Japanese government defines what is and is not Japanese people, and since I'm kind of autistic I have also asked the question anonymously in live streams by Japanese people and they've always said the same thing - someone who holds Japanese citizenship is Japanese.

>>33530638
its not really true my opinion has been constantly building for the last 20 years

u can find pockets of happiness but i sense a deeper sickness in japan than i do with my own ppl

and theres some japanese that will agree w. me and theres other japanese so stockholm syndromed they will defend japan to the end while still knowing im a little bit right

>>33530660
>i know ur just being ironic
I'm not being ironic. After I hold citizenship then the Japanese government recognizes me as a Japanese person, and most normal Japanese people tend to agree with this mindset as well (Unless they're hard left but come on nobody likes them).

>>33530733
>sorry to break it to you hon but you will never be japanese

There are several requirements to become Japanese, and one of those is being able to understand some level of Japanese. The minimum required level is defined as "equivalent to the lower grades of elementary school" and this is usually interpreted as being at the level of a second or third grader, but while this is the requirement on paper the reality is slightly different. You must go through multiple meetings with your case worker conducted fully in Japanese, as well as fill out and translate lots of paperwork, write a motivational essay in Japanese and finally you must take a Japanese test and then be interviewed by the officer who is overseeing your case. The TEST is at the low level written in the requirements, but if you cannot get through the multiple meetings, the interview, or if there are many errors in your paperwork or essay then you will be rejected and told to try again after improving your Japanese.

So to answer your question, you must be able to maintain in-depth conversations to become Japanese as one of the unnoficial requirements.

Permanent residents aren't Japanese.

>i think thats a fair thing to say ultimately once uve been there for a big chunk of ur life
I came here when I was 19, I wasn't even an adult yet by Japanese standards. Typically university age has a big impact on you as a person which is why many Americans become more liberalized in their early 20s and I believe being here at that time in my life had a big impact on my development/world view as an adult. I have spent the entirety of my adult life in Japan and I was practically raised on Japanese media. It's weird to describe but in a way I feel like I'm haafu (not physically, of course, I mean mentally). It's somewhat interesting actually, sometimes when I have long discussions with people I don't know very well they sometimes ask me if I am haafu.

That's funny, I always hear this from foreigners but whenever I speak to naturalized Japanese they always say the exact oppositge - even after 10+ years of being Japanese.

Pro tip for living in Japan, no matter what your citizenship is: If you can speak at least conversational level Japanese and you integrate then people will treat you extremely normally.

I don't know anything about those countries, but I am aware that some countries do in fact make a clear distinction between citizens and naturalized citizens. America is a good example of this. But in Japan, there is no difference between Japanese citizens and naturalized citizens.

It's not a matter of what I believe, it's a matter of what the Japanese government believes. And if the Japanese government says that I'm Japanese then I must be Japanese, because the Japanese government is the only authority that can decide who is and who is not Japanese.

>>33531020
No.

Here's two questions for the both of you.
1) Have you ever met someone who is a naturalized Japanese citizen and have you asked them about how accepted they feel in Japanese society based on their experience after naturalization?
2) Have you ever met a Japanese person who has encountered a naturalized Japanese citizen and have you asked them what their thoughts about that person were?

Of course the answer to both is no. You are making claims based on your own closed mindsets and you're just wrong in all sense of being wrong. If you think I'm bothered by your words then I'm not, I already told you several times now that the only people who say that are foreigners and the type of Japanese who only ever hang out with foreigners. And guess what you are: foreigners.

>>33531094
the cg is pretty awful aside from that it looks fine

so, are you just transgender or also transracial?

>>33531117
i would imagine anyone who is in the right place in their life to really consider becoming a naturalized citizen would feel pretty good about japanese society and their life in it

>>33531160
I don't like motion comics. As long as the stuff on screen is actually animated and isn't completely still then I'm fine. A few anime come to mind which have scenes where nothing moves.

>>33531117
>and have you asked them about how accepted they feel in Japanese society based on their experience after naturalization?

Yeah of course. I have never had any problems in Japan.

Debito is an お節介 and was treated exactly how he deserved to be treated. You can't just be an asshole and show up somewhere expecting to change everything to fit your special needs and then expect everyone to like you. He wouldn't have even been accepted in America if he had stayed there.
