Just starting for real after several false starts, ditching genki this time for Tae Kim, anki, and heisig.

Should I learn the readings as I do heisig or just the names of the radicals and learn readings as the kanji come up in anki? Should I get a heisig deck for the radical names along with the anki 2k/6k?

Yes if by "anki" you mean vocab deck.
I am pretty sure everyone who does RTK also does an anki deck with it

DJT doesn't like Heisig but I do so I'll help you out. If you do Heisig, in order to get the actual benefits of it (namely, being able to go through Core as fast as you want) you should get at least over halfway through it before you start Core, otherwise you won't know any of the keywords for basic kanji. How many new cards/day (approx) are you planning on doing?

No.

I mean, even ignoring the retarded wanikani shit completely, that folder is still a great all-in-one resource to go along with the guide and help newcomers. The fact that such a resource is also useful for BTFOing any WK shills desperately clinging to the only thing they have over anki(the fact that it spoonfeeds you everything) is just an added bonus.

Wanikani isn't supposed to replace anki, only core 6k.　Don't be a shill.

Before I go any further, let me tell you to take everything you hear on here and anywhere (including from me, right now) with a grain of salt. The vast majority of the time you are being given advice by those not too much further down the road than you and methods that work for some may not work for everyone.

That being said, here is how I would advise those going down the Heisig path to proceed.

1. Kana.

2. RTK as fast as you feel comfortable with so you can get into Core ASAP while having a good breadth of kanji knowledge. If you want to do other stuff besides RTK while going through the program, then do some grammar - VJG, JtMW, and Tae Kim are all fine resources. Also, watch a bunch of anime (eng subbed) if you haven't been already and try to pick up common words and phrases.

3. Core, again as fast as you feel comfortable with (and keep up with) - this amount will vary from person to person.

This strategy has worked very well for me. However, there are a few things to note:

1. Although I love Heisig I would recommend most people to just try Core at first and see how they like it, and if they are having difficulty with it to do RTK. If you breeze through Core without RTK it probably is an unnecessary step.

2. If you are going through at ~20 cards/day then you will be done in ~4 months. Many would say being 4 months in and still not knowing any vocabulary is a terrible position for a beginner. If you want to avoid this, there are basically only two ways around this, and they are to either start Core about halfway through and bruteforce you way through the kanji you haven't seen yet, or go through RTK even faster just to "get it over with" and start vocab.

So should you drop Core and just do RTK? Maybe, but I would only recommend this if you're truly willing to go through RTK twice as fast to compensate. I'm running out of charspace so I'll write out a little guide on how I think the optimal way to do RTK is in my next post.

and the fact that there is literally a WaniKani anki deck - allowing you to go through the exact same program but with a superior and customizable SRS algorithm, uncapped pace, and ability to edit cards, FOR FREE - means WaniKani is 100% obsolete, regardless of how you feel about any other popular anki decks. Remind me which one of us is a shill?

NEVER TELL ANYONE YOU ARE LEARNING JAPANESE!

To any newcomers in this thread, this is the number one most important thing you will read here.

>>136091853

It wasn't a lie. I work hard at Japanese every day, and I've made good progress. I can often read several VN screens in a row without stopping.

I just don't focus on output at all.

>>136091918
If they ask you to say something, but they don't know Japanese, just say long strings of simple phrases you're familiar with
そうかもしれないけどよくわかりませんたいちょうごちそうさまでした

>>136091744
Don't listen to the others, it's good you said this since it appears you impressed them and might get a job out of it. Act confident and it'll go fine.

Learn how to say "oh well, it's always weird when someone asks you to say something in a particular language, you end up not knowing what to say haha" in Japanese just in case.

>>136091906
Also make sure you have a cover story in case anyone happens to find out. You don't want people to know you read VNs and watch anime.

Possible covers:
- I want to attend graduate school in Japan, X university has a great program for Y
- I love Japanese novelists like Harukami Murakami
- My half-uncle's family is Japanese and I want to be able to speak with them

>>136091918
You shouldn't have told them that you can speak Japanese if you actually can't.

I'm 1k words into 2k6k, and talk everyday with japanese people. But I need to be able to write my kanji for a test, so should I drop 2k6k and start over with this? Or should I just keep going 2k6k.
The test is on June, it also has math physics and chemistry. I'm studying math/physics/chemistry about 10 hours per day, and I spread my reviews throughout the day.
Have some advice, maybe? Also, how many new words per day?

I stumble big time whenever I try to speak. I forgot words and mispronounce things. This is probably not disconnected to my listening being piss poor.

I suppose that the best course of action might be to choose a few easy phrases for demonstration, and shadow them again and again and again until I don't stumble. I still have two more days until the interview.

>>136092273
Nah, you're fucked, mate.

>>136091099
>>136091801

The first thing to consider is Koohii. RTK is best used with a companion site with Koohii. In fact, I would go as far to say that without Koohii it would be incredibly inefficient and possibly detrimental to the learning process. Koohii has great user-created stories to get the mnemonics in your head without having to spend time coming up with them yourself, provides explanations when Heisig's keywords are ambiguous, suggestions for new keywords when Heisig's are strange or just wrong, etc. So use Koohii religiously, otherwise RTK will be slow, painful, and boring.

The second thing to consider is how to initially learn each kanji. Many RTKers start off by writing down their whole "story" for each kanji, in English, in their notebook. DON'T. There is not anything "wrong" with doing this in terms of retention, but it will take you twice as long for minimal retention gains. You would be much better served by going through RTK twice as fast with slightly poorer retention and shoring it up afterwards.

And the third thing to consider is the reviews. Consider 料 and 賃, "fee" and "fare" respectively. Suppose while doing reviews, you get "fee" and immediately both kanji pop into your mind. You try to recall which one is which and pick 賃, incorrectly. "Darn," you think, and mark it wrong. You absolutely should NOT do this. Why? Because this screwing up of similar keywords is fucking stupid and has nothing to do with actual Japanese, so don't mark yourself wrong in cases like these. Instead, just change the front of your cards to things like "fee (not 賃)" so you will know that is NOT the kanji that keyword goes to and be able to associate it with the correct one.

There are a bunch of other things I could write about RTK as well but these are probably the three most important points for any prospective Heisig-ers.

>>136092065
Also, my grammar isn't that good. So starting to do what this anon said isn't an option? How many hours per day do you think it would take to tackle that? I'm sorry for asking for someone to hold my hand through this, but I kinda need it.

君の名残は静かに揺れて is the greatest work of art every written. Every aspect of it, from the music to the story, from beginning to end, is perfection incarnate. It was worth all of those hundreds of hours of learning Japanese, solely to be able to read this beautiful, timeless masterpiece.

>>136092347
No idea, I didn't spend much time looking at it. If you want your hand held then by all means, but eventually you are going to have to learn to study indepentendly. Maybe set your new cards to 0/day for the deck you've worked on and keep doing those reviews as they come up, so you don't forget anything.

>>136092505

According to word it is under 2,200 words and around a 1/3 of the size of our Guide. Is that really enormous to you? I thought it was short and witty for the most part.

Why not integrate that link into your studies, replacing the Core10k instructions what you are already doing with Core2k/6k? Assuming you already know kana and basic grammar you can probably start at the step that involves the grammar deck and the kanji deck. It mentions Visualizing Japanese Grammar and by the sounds of it includes a deck with the video clips added to the cards themselves. Regardless of whether that appeals to you or not I think it is a general good idea for people to watch at least a dozen of the clips on visualizing japanese grammar (google it, the university site should be the first result) just because it provides a unique look at Japanese grammar which isn't really accessible in a text format.

Having a look at the pastebin now if I were you what I would do is use the kanji deck in step -4 and start at step -6, which sounds like where you may be at now.

Well, N1 won't be proof enough if you're interviewing to become a salesman, negotiator, or whatever.

But if you're going for some other position (for example, a firmware programmer for a company with a Japanese divison, or graduate school in Japan), it will mean a lot. Remember, they're sometimes sending people who know no Japanese at all. So someone who actually has the skill to pass N1 -and- has whatever other requisite training is an easy fit.

Also, despite what shitty redditors and youtubers claim, N1 does actually test a significant amount of kanji, vocab, grammar, and reading comprehension. If you know that much (assuming you didn't just pass with the minimum of 55% or something), you'll probalby pick up conversation and production pretty readily when you're immersed.

>>136094584
>If there's a nip there though, you're pretty much fucked. You may as well have tried to impress them by writing out your ABC's
On the contrary, at least with my personal experience. Japanese seem even more impressed that you can write their language more than your average westerner. Not a huge sample size, though.

>>136094447

>>136091906

There are three things I would change immediately (though this doesn't make it ugly)
1 - move "noun" below 二十日
2 - remove 二十日 from the back and just have it be はつか
3 - put English meaning below the kanji word
4 - (optional) remove Freq because it doesn't matter at all
That current format doesn't really consider the flow of eye very well if you know what I mean, pretty awkward to look at and over time to use.

>>136094919

>>136094919

>>136094980
See above.

>>136094919

This is the Core 10k deck which has been in the CoR, taken from a kanji koohii thread, for ages. I've been using it on ankidroid and anki desktop and the issue of
>doesn't really consider the flow of eye very well if you know what I mean
Well, I have no idea what you mean because it has been perfectly fine for daily reviewing. I think you've been duped into believing that what is written in the anki startup guide is the best and only way to set up the core deck.

>>136095034
There are multiple core decks in the CoR. You just so happened to pick the bad one and are now trying desperately to defend it

>>136094919
>That current format doesn't really consider the flow of eye very well if you know what I mean, pretty awkward to look at and over time to use.
This is really vague; what do you mean exactly? My deck looks almost identical aside the font.

>>136095080
Can you address the above? The Core2k/6k/10k deck is an improvement on the Core2k/6k deck and I am really struggling to understand your criticisms as they seem to boil down to 'I don't like it because I don't like it'- which I really doubt is the case.

>>136094881
>>136094911
Yeah, I can see what you guys mean. I think it's just because knowing English in any non-third world country is so commonplace that it seems really weird to me to be impressed by your own language. If that same guy started writing polish, even if I were polish myself, on the board, then I would have a much different reaction.

>>136095034
I don't see how it having been there for ages matters when it comes to having an awkward format. Core used to have that GOD awful yellow format if you know what I'm taking about for a long ass time.
The format''s "fine" but it's pretty suboptimal, at least in my eyes, everythign I listed would make it a lot better I think.

I actually made the format in the startup guide, obviously I'd think it's the best.
>>136095158
>Noun below word
The first thing you should see should be what you're recalling, clearly. Having to skip over "noun" and "verb" every time is annoying and visually distracting, either you'll zone it out or skip over it every time, either way it's inferior to being on the bottom.
>remove 二十日 from the back and just have it be はつか
You already know it's 二十日 from the front, repeating it doesn't help anything. Having just the reading as seen in pic related is clearer.
>put English meaning below the kana reading
Like this, vertically speaking, one will see Kanji word -> kana reading -> english meaning, a nice flow from Japanese into English, which I think makes more logical sense than jumping back and forther with Kanji word -> English meaning -> Kana reading. Furthermore, having the reading right below the kanji allows you to immediately see whether you read it correctly or not, removing the temptation to press "good" as long as you got the meaning right, which is relevant because it's easier to derive meaning from kanji than it is to derive reading a lot of the time, especially in core. This is arguable though, my main focus here is just the logical kanji -> kana -> english. It reads better to me.
>(optional) remove Freq because it doesn't matter at all
I have full confidence that anyone using this deck will neither memorize nor look at Freq the vast majority of the time so it can be fully removed and not affect the deck too much. I said "optional" because really it doesn't matter.

>>136094974
no no i dont think you understand it literally is saying "releasing concerning population". Is this just how japanese works? The subject apparently is the prefecture (３つの県は) but you cant release a "regarding prefecture".

What is awkward about it? The deck image you have presented is so superficially different that those using it on a daily basis for a small handful of minutes wouldn't care either way.

You keep saying objective things like inferior, etc. but it still boils down to your personal preferences. The layout you have presented looks worse than the image presented in this post >>136094447

>>136094805
>If some foreign guy wrote the word "cat" on the board, no matter his background, I can't say I'd be impressed.
Don't be silly.
Knowing 3000 kanji is objectively more difficult than knowing a 26 character alphabet.
Do you really think the Japanese are so stupid that they can't see that basic fact?
Do you think it's any easier for them to memorize all those kanji than it is for us? Remember, they're homo sapiens, just like you...

Subjective projection. I get that you think the format in the anki startup guide is the only way but all you've offered is personal preferences that have nothing to do with objectivity. Does it bother you that much that other people use something that doesn't line up with your preferences?
Seems kind of desperate, man.

>>136095371
I think you are confused about the meaning of the verb. 人口について just means "something regarding the population (numers)" as you said, 発表 means announced here, not released. So there doesn't have to be a noun like 報告.

>>136095608
It's way better than the shit you posted, daft cunt.

>>136095354
The thing with Anki is that you could customize the deck to look exactly like that. So what's the problem aside from it not coming like that out of the box? The order is the important thing for beginners and it's objectively better than the core2k/6k shitfest.

>>136095608

I listed some ~objective~ points, for example
>The first thing you should see should be what you're recalling, clearly. Having to skip over "noun" and "verb" every time is annoying and visually distracting

I would like to see any argument as to the contrary. It's all well and good that you can point to me and say "subjective", but I actually explained my reasoning for my format. Can you do the same?
>I get that you think the format in the anki startup guide is the only way
No, there are other ways, they just tend to be worse, like the one I corrected.
>Does it bother you that much that other people use something that doesn't line up with your preferences?
No, I just have the best for everyone else in my heart. I am not bothered at all. I've gotten pretty weary when it comes to helping people with anki, though, given all these semi-newbies that seem pretty heated with keeping stuff messed up like the awful DOJG format. I guess this is like the passing of the old guard or some such. No point in fighting it or being bothered.

That about sums up your entire line of argument, doesn't it? Projection, incredulity and personal preference. If you have such confidence you could always upload the zip folder linked at the start of the thread, replacing the vocab deck which is in it. If I had that sort of confidence that it was "objectively superior" and thus better for learners, that is what I would do if I cared about the topic.

Why not do that? You have the superior format for learning, right? I'm sure the anon who uploaded it would appreciate someone improving what they put together. That is how the mega folder came to be in the first place, after all.

Also, I said "I don't believe you" because I have some inkling that the people responding to me are attacking beliefs and not the actual format. Given that, for instance, you and this post >>136095608 didn't actually make any arguments or provide any reasoning against my suggested changes, instead they attack me and call me subjective, sure OK but what about the format? I had a half a mind that you were just being contrarian, therefore I didn't believe you.

>>136096107
First, I don't even see wherever "noun" is on the front template, so that's confusing.
Second, I would switch {{Vocabulary-Kana}} to be on top but elaborating from the image {{Vocabulary-Kana}} probably has kanji? Since what's below English is Kanji in the original image.

Honestly, like I said though, I can't change what's in the CoR or the shared rar so it doesn't really matter. Change it how you want to and that'll be that for you.

>>136096254
Okay even though you posted this crap a while ago i had to comment. First Starting off your a BAKA and if you don't what that means do some research, also, it doesn't matter where she's born it matters what her parent's Race is, which in her case her parent's are Japanese which MAKES HER JAPANESE YOU BAKA!

Oh and if your being a Troll your a fucking idiot.

What's wrong with the format the deck almost everyone starts on uses (the one in the startup pastebin)? Hell, what's wrong with just putting the startup deck there instead (but fixing the format to add images back since that was removed from the back template if I recall correctly). Plus 10k is a bit overkill since most people recommend mining after 2k anyways.

>>136098185
>so your post doesn't mean a lot.
At the end of the day it will mean more than anything anon/you can complain about because he/you isn't doing anything about his/your issues.

/a/utists are really adept at sperging out over tiny irrelevant issues and never doing anything about it. Meanwhile people who use that folder/guide/thing and follow it as laid out will likely become more proficient that the vast majority of anons who come here day in day out arguing over pointless shit and freaking out when other people don't share their black and white worldview. Results are the only meaningful aspect of language acquisition. Arguing over whether a card is laid out as
>Noun
>医者
or
>医者
>Noun
is not only pointless but it isn't productive nor constructive. What have you achieved by getting emotionally invested in an argument you aren't going to do anything about? I'd argue that the best part of that set up is that everything is there and any anon using it won't need to come to these threads and be distracted by the milieu of arguments based around non-consequential shit. Even wanikani is more productive for learners than the opposition to the color and minor layout differences this anon/you have been puffing hot air over.

>>136097383
Yeah, definitely a good idea. You'll undoubtedly appreciate it more that way.

It actually feels so good to get such clear evidence of how much my Japanese ability has improved. Being able to smoothly zoom through scenes without having to stop and look words up or think about the grammar is just the best feeling ever. Although it's a little sad that I'll never get to experience the thrill and excitement of reading a sex scene while constantly looking words up again, one hand vigorously working away while the other mouses through the text parser, my brain simultaneously filled with passionate loving sex and all this useful new vocab. That was what I loved the most about Flyable Heart sex scenes.

>>136098539
>At the end of the day it will mean more than anything anon/you can complain about because he/you isn't doing anything about his/your issues.
I put the format I think is best in Anki Startup Guide like a year ago and people have been using it since. I did do something about it. And I did something again when I recommended changes to the "new" deck posted. However this time the format in question is in the CoR and the mega that anon's sharing so there's not a lot I can do, it's not publicly editable stuff, and even if it were, it'd be obnoxious of me to change things that other people apparently don't agree with.
>What have you achieved by getting emotionally invested in an argument you aren't going to do anything about?
I'm not really emotionally invested. Maybe a little weary.
>Arguing over whether a card is laid out as is not only pointless but it isn't productive nor constructive.
I have no idea why people argued against my suggestions, especially since no one has yet explained why they aren't better. All I get are accusations of being subjective. I do not think discussions about card formats aren't constructive, these slight changes improve the anki experience in my opinion quite significantly and the changes are small enough to not be a big deal.

>>136098645
If you know 感触 you can understand 50% of the sex scenes. That word is permanently burned into my memory from Flyable Heart.

>>136100169
Nope. Physical shit is just cumbersome and annoying to use.

Even after reading a lot, combinations of multiples ん、の、じゃない、etc. at sentence end still give me trouble. I read something like　あまり恥かかせるんじゃないの　and I'm just not sure what the fuck it's supposed to mean.　Anyone know a good resource for this stuff?

Telling someone to re-read a basic grammar guide is not helpful.

>>136100423
1) の can turn verbal phrases into noun phrases like "~ing" and "to ~" in english.
2) じゃない just means "is not"
3) Ending a sentence in の can be another way of asking a question

>>136101092

>>136101103

>>136101022

>>136101177
When people react with hostility to being told to reread a basic grammar guide that's because they already read it and it won't help them any more.

>>136101164
How familiar are you with grammar? How confident are you in your understanding of "あまり恥かかせるんじゃないの"

>>136101092
I know all those things, but that doesn't make sense in context.　In fact the fan translation of this line is "don't embarass me too much."　Which would make sense. I've also found example sentences with Jisho like:

ーー
帰り道で道草するんじゃないのよ。

Don't play around too much after school.
ーー

And if I interpret it this way it makes sense.

Then just do that. Don't get bogged down in analyzing the grammar. That's not how people actually learn languages. Just get the general idea and move on. The more times you encounter it in usage, the better you will understand it.

>>136101214
I'm fluent and you're going to have to explain how じゃない somehow isn't a negative copula, even if it's used in an indirect imperative construction. It's just like saying "no Xing" in english.

>>136101436
Check timestamps

>>136101492
Ok. I asked how familiar you were with grammar because "じゃない just means "is not" implied you didn't understand how it was being used, which is an interpretation I think you'll understand.

It's okay I just felt like it was unmet hostility.

>>136101392

I managed to acquire a casio EX word d9800 from a friend. So here's the deal:

It absolutely shits on ANY smartphone app. Fuck a radical search, just write the kanji on either of its screens. It has tons of dictionaries and encyclopedias built in. (There's even a cursive script kanji dictionary.) Another very noteworthy feature is the "Jump" button that lets you look up definitions within a definition, with a single click. There's also sound (i.e. can reads words aloud), flashcard feature (no SRS tho), ability to write notes in the dictionary, save lookups into word lists for review, etc.

The big downside is that they are expensive. Also, they are designed for japanese people -- the UI and manual are in Japanese only.

Overall for reading physical media, it just doesn't get any better. I hardly ever open up Jisho.org anymore since I got this thing.

But as nice as it is, in the end it just can't compare to convenience and speed of the "mouse over" dictionaries like Rikaisama or your texthookers of choice. So, at least for me, reading material on the computer still trumps reading physical media.

Yea, it's a tough dilemma. Japanese girls are the prettiest but if I have a kid with them I'll be diluting my own gene pool. Also if it's a male they'll be in the worst of positions since girls don't like half white/asian males but if it's a girl they'll probably turn out all right since half japanese girls are really good. They might even be better than the originals. Kind of like half saiyans.

I'll be giving a lesson (45 minutes) about Japanese to a bunch of high-school students next week. I'll talk about the Japanese language, how the writing system works, give them an idea of how the grammar is built up (e. g. Particles) and talk about the expressiveness in the language, the differences to German and English and the information that is lost when translating Japanese to English.

Pic related is my concept plan so far. I already know what I'm going to talk about when it comes to the loss of information, but I'm wondering if you people can think of any interesting things that I should tell them about the language.
Or perhaps some funny videos or something of the sort which deal with the language (I've already got 厚切りジョンソン in my plan).

Cheers.

lol, they wont listen to a word you say
they'll just anime meme you into the ground and then bait you into getting mad, constantly

>>136111510
Well, actually I'll be the one showing them anime.

(A scene or two from Joshiraku and the translators notes)

Also, they're gymnasium students (quasi-equivalent of high school but with far less idiots) so I wouldn't be worried about them acting like idiots.

Good luck m8, you'll need it all.

Quick someone recommend me a good compelling Japanese let's play, preferably a girl with an easy to understand voice and a somewhat small vocabulary

>>136111588

You should probably use non-anime stuff instead, everyone always equating Japanese with anime is precisely why I'd wager people are going to have a hard time taking you or what you're saying seriously.

>>136111835
This. It's not helpful in any way to bring anime into it when there's tons of other media to draw from.

>>136111835
Well, I'll be showing them non-anime stuff too, but it seems stupid to not include anime & manga related stuff since that is pretty much how I got into Japanese and it's great for giving examples.

Aside from which, I recently wrote a paper on the loss of information in translating Japanese manga to English. Not taking reference to the work I did seems like a huge loss.

Is 老舗 usually read as shinise or roubo?

>but it seems stupid to not include anime & manga related stuff since that is pretty much how I got into Japanese and it's great for giving examples.

Using anime as an example will have exactly two kinds of reactions, some guys are going to be super into it and the rest are going to roll their eyes.

Manga is totally fine depending on what you go with, but don't show them cartoons if it's the language you're there to talk about and want it to be taken seriously. The fact that people are often outright embarassed to tell anyone they're learning Japanese should tell you how deep-seated the "Japanese language = anime weeb" -mindset is amongst a lot of people, and all you'll succeed at is propagating the stereotype even further.

Use movies instead, maybe some old classics to demonstrate how the language has changed over time or something along those lines.

>>136112406
He said he wants to portray the information that's lost when translating Japanese, and Joshiraku is pretty perfect for that, I think as long as he outlines why he's using that example (because it's a comedy that heavily relies on Japanese puns and wordplay and shit) then it will look less like he's just using anime because he's a weeb and more because it generally gets his points across

Although it is true that some people tend to see anime and just shut off completely, so maybe it would be more beneficial to focus on something else, but it depends what audience he's going to be presenting to

How would you translate このやろう trying to be as literal as possible but still conveying the proper meaning?

>>136112406
Well, I'll be using manga or novels for most of my examples, but I can't really think of anything that's more suited to talk about the relationship between language and culture than Joshiraku.

Especially since the translator has comprehensive notes for each episode.

I'll be using all kinds of stuff, from explaining how Kanji readings work with the google IME and 厚切りジェソン as a humorous introduction to how convoluted they are. Though I'll be relying on manga for the largest part of my examples since you have the text right there along with an image for context.

>>136112658
I'm quite familiar with my audience, and Joshiraku will just be a small example among a whole lot of varied examples. I'm not very worried about people thinking that I'm just using the chance to force feed them anime, I just want to integrate various types of media in order to mix things up, given that it will be just me talking for the largest part and people tend to turn off mentally if you keep talking along the same boring powerpoint for more than ten minutes at a time.

>>136112658

Sure, but you can find puns and wordplay in a whole lot of places if that's what you want to go for, it's not like you need to go particularly deep into it in a 45-minute lesson. If we were talking about kids 3-4 years younger then I'd say go for it, but I have a hard time picturing a scenario where showing Japanese cartoons to gymnasium students in a context that's meant to be actually educational would work out as intended.

>>136112896

If you're worried about mixing things up then again, use movies or something. It doesn't really matter how good you think Joshiraku is for that purpose because you're not making the lesson for yourself and I can assure you that as people who largely aren't into the language and culture, they won't appreciate stuff like that even remotely to the degree that you do. The part your actual audience is going to remember is the fact that a grown-ass man showed them a cartoon about young anime girls.

But since you're clearly married to the idea already then hey, do what you think is best.

>>136113465
Not him, but I think you're overreacting to the anime thing.

>>136113565

I probably made it sound like a bigger deal than I meant to by writing so many words, I just think that he'll undermine his own goal by taking that particular approach since it's already tough for most people to take Japanese seriously.

I could also be totally wrong of course, I'm just basing it off of my own experience from back when I was a gymnasium student. Someone showing us anime would've been entertaining and welcome for sure, but the educational part of it probably would've missed its mark.

>>136113810
It's going to be a scene of like two minutes with one explanatory paragraph of text to go with it. I think you're overestimating how much emphasis I'll be placing on this.

Mate, I read manga in Japanese during the break. People are either impressed or don't give two shits as long as you don't act like an autist. The teacher specifically asked me if I would be interested in holding a lesson on the topic since we are currently dealing with Japan in geography.
