The day is almost over

how do i motivate myself to do reps early in the morning instead late at night?

I wouldn't be able to learn anything anyway, so what's the point? ;_;

Do them on your phone and dont let yourself get out of bed until they are done

im already fluent in japanese

do it while taking a dump

i shit every morning, don't know about you though

Just dew it

>dont let yourself get out of bed until they are done
He said give him a motivation to do them, not the opposite

well user, share your method with the rest of the class

>do it while taking a dump
my dumps are long enough to do 250 reps

How long should it take to just get to N4

Bois, I finished the jlpt5 and 4 from itazuraneko, should I grab another one? Or just increase the amount of time I watch anime with jap subs/read vns

anki decks I mean

I was playing this shit, hooking the text with chiitrans lite (it's for vns but surprisingly it works with rpgmaker games too) but god it was boring.
Also don't bother with chii on win 10, I've heard it doesnt work

How much Kanji would you have to know to read something like Steins;Gate?

all the kanji

Do you guys do some pre word mining and research before watching an anime/playing a game?

Why should I bother learning japanese?

how long did that take you?

If you don't want to, then don't do it

>forget to do my reps for a few days
>anki says i have 200+ cards to review today

Dunno, 2 months? 3? I started with a 1000 kanji from heisig, then jlpt5 then 4.
5 I did 50 words a day, and suspended a shit ton of the useless ones (like numbers, time, counters), 4 I did 30

>playing now
steins;gate, it's bretty good so far
>completed last
an rpg maker game called arishia no panse, part of the dogma series. it was okay. i've been putting off finishing the last 2 games in the series because i don't want it to end.
>like the most
SHINSETSU MAHOU SHOUJO. I can't stress this enough, it's one of the single best games i've ever played in my entire life. i think it might genuinely be my favorite game of all time, it's absolutely fantastic and i genuinely can't think of anything i dislike about it. anybody who is learning japanese and is willing to play an SRPG 100% needs to play this fucking game, it will NOT let you down.
>felt the most
shinsetsu mahou shoujo. no seriously, play this fucking game

it's not really about "learning kanji," it's about knowing vocab. that having been said if you don't know a word you can always use your text hooker and look it up. the slice of life scenes aren't that bad, and most of the SF stuff isn't that bad either, but there are some long infodump sequences that are pretty tough so far.

You need to know the words, genius. Fucking individually, down to the reading. Which means looking up every single fucking one of them multiple times until you see the word enough times to know it. Your kanji wankery is 99% a waste of time.

It's just a hobby to pick up.

If you watch copious amounts of anime, jap shows, play games with jap dubs, read jap light novels and comic books listen to jap music and sports with jap broadcasters you mine as well.

Poland and Germany ruined ints djt so people are just doing it here now.

>200 is a lot now
Lazy ass, 200 might take you 30 minutes

Learn the kanji, then learn the vocab. Just knowing the kanji on their own with no vocab will make it near impossible to actually understand anything you're reading.

>it's about knowing vocab.

So you should probably do some pre research like mentioned right?

But user, I did my reps 8 hours ago.

Finished my wani kani and pimsleur for the day. Now playing Doom for practice.

>Did my reps for 4 years straight
>Beyond N1, but my reading speed is still 1/3 to 1/2 of a native speaker's speed

I hate the feeling of sluggishness when reading Japanese. Why can I read English as a ESL at a normal speed, but can't do the same with Japanese?

i personally don't. no matter how good your vocab knowledge is, your reading speed is going to be slow as fuck until you've been learning japanese for like a decade anyway, so you might as well just pick it up if you're interested instead of trying to guess what words might show up and learn them ahead of time.

i think the best advice i could give is to consume a big variety of genres, sticking with basic school SOL stuff is fine at the start but you do want to get into SF, mystery, fantasy etc to broaden your vocab as much as possible.

What Pimsleur lesson are you on?

>numbers, time, and counters
>useless
Are you literally learning jap specifically to read untranslated games? You need all of those things if you want to actually communicate everyday topics in japanese.

Just finished 22 of pimsleur 1.

Alright boys, time for another budget djt on Zig Forums which hits the bump limit solely because of the sheer quantity of autists willing to argue over the "right" way to learn japanese.

not that user but i would say 99% of japanese learners are more interested in playing games and reading comics than talking with nihonjin

Nice. I'm trying to find somebody ahead of me (16 of level 2) who could give me some insight on if it's natural to get burnt out right around now.
I feel like I've retained less in the past 3 days than ever so far

I suspended everything I already knew and thus a waste of time to review; or that I don't care about knowing, like 経済.

I did my "reps" (by which I mean I studied 10 hours a day) back in 2002
most of you weren't even born probably

post some good learning jp games

anything you can text hook is a good choice

None, if its moonrune then fuck this shit.
I play something else then.

I love Japanese language

Because non literary English uses limited vocabulary, and you're probably trying to read porn, and it doesn't give a fuck about holding wordy words back. Go play last Dragon Quest or something, it has furigana on the Switch.

Is this a daily thread now? Every day and it's the same thing. There's only like 2 or 3 people actually talking about video games because there's only like 2 or 3 people who got good enough to just play things and not worry about learning methods or whatever anymore. The whole rest is pointless discussions of garbage offtopic and forever running in circles about the same exact things every single time.

I noticed in my lessons im always compelled to say はい instead of ええ
Is that still proper grammar, or am I going to sound like a foreigner if I say はい too much?

for me it's eroge

Sorry, not feeling it today. Tae Kim's been kicking my ass lately with all this なの stuff

It's an opportunity for some to realize there is no circumventing hard work in life. Not without a price.

Ngmi, and it's very very rare that I'd ever tell somebody that

Oh, sweet summer child. The rabbit hole is endless, and you haven't even fallen in.

I know, but that doesn't answer my question
