Going to Japan this summer, and I really want to avoid sticking out as some obnoxious foreigner. I was wondering if there's any helpful tips for how to conduct oneself or what'd really stick out to wear around so I can avoid packing it. It seems like a country that's pretty tolerant so it's not like I'll get beat up for just being a normal tourist, but I also don't want to come off as some unkempt freak who gets judged everywhere I go. To maximize my enjoyment of the trip I've been looking to find out what is and isn't acceptable and what's social faux pas or things to avoid.

For example, I was reading up on Japanese law recently and learned that under Act No. 52 of 1999 it's actually illegal to buy JCs off the streets. Which is just an important reminder to /qajp/ that you should always check the laws of where you're going to!

I want to nakadashi *girl* has become a popular phrase on imageboards (mostly 4chan). But it's a mix of Japanese and English. If I was going to say "I want to cum inside Holo" fully in Japanese, how would I go about doing that? In the English sentence, nakadashi is a loan word and it is the action being done, but in Japanese I don't think 中出し is a verb. Can it be verbified by adding する to it? And then you conjugate it to say you "want" to do it. So the end result would be 私はホロで中出ししたい which would translate to I want to cum inside Holo. Am I correct?

Japanese is fun to learn.

but learning kanji is fun! I didn't even plan to learn Japanese, I was also too intimidated by the writing system. I just wanted to know a little of the basics like their phonetic alphabets and then numbers and what is a male and female bathroom door in Japan because that one is pretty useful, and it just kinda snowballed from there because it was fun to learn.
With a memory program like Anki you can make it into a memory game. Tons of decks to help learning hiragana/katakana and some basic kanji and core vocabulary (kaishi 1.5k is good, but the kanji will be a bit difficult to differentiate in the beginning I think. There's also a radical deck for the kaishi deck can use to help with that).

It is difficult in the beginning not going to lie, but it somehow gets easier instead of more difficult. You build a sixth sense for what's what. Learning new words gets easier over time. I started super slow and just kinda went faster over time.

Something I've realized is that the imageboard system of using flashcards, apps and online pdf books is not effective to the standard scholastic system of using pen and paper.

Online tools have to be combined with writting things down on paper.

 No.141624

Bold statement. I don't see why you have to use pen and paper if you aren't interested in physically writing kanji. Just immerse more. I am mildly interested in physical writing because the written language really is beautiful, but it's not an effective use of my time to learn stroke orders when I can just read all day or watch something all day.

A clip got recommended to me on youtube and reminded me that I absolutely love this anime. In terms of the typical shoujo today despite its influence I'd say it still stands out, and Anno's influence on the presentation through his direction (before the budget kinda goes kaput like EVA near the end) is strikingly impactful in conveying the mood of each scene and allowing the highs to reach further than manga ever could. Miyazawa's probably still my favorite Shoujo protagonist of any romance series, her smarts and unbreakable character make her extremely endearing to watch as situations arise throughout her and Arima's school life as a result of their relationship. It's a great exploration of two quite different characters who take interest with and build each other up as they go about life and maturing.

So with that in mind I'm going to be streaming the first 10 episodes of KareKano April 6th, or next Sunday, at 3:00PM EST. Only the first 10 because I feel like that's the most crucial portion of the story that sets into motion everything else. The setup, main cast, and character relations for the most part are established after that and it's more digging deeper into them that we can stream maybe some other time if people want me to. Be sure you're there for it!

Oh, and on https://theatre.kissu.moe/kiss/yukkuri of course

 No.141164>>141165

>(before the budget kinda goes kaput like EVA near the end)
From what I could gather, it seems both were actually caused by production issues independently of budget, through last minute re-dos, changes in direction, and the like. This was 1998 post-EoE Gainax, and as far as I know at this point merchandise sales are giving them buttloads of monaaay, a very different situation from 1995.
And yes, I agree that it's an incredible show.

 No.141165

>>141164
Oh huh, I always thought it was a budget thing, but yeah makes sense that after EVA that wouldn't really be possible. Wonder why they didn't just delay it like anime now do.

Reminder it's in 2 days, at 3:00PM

Do you have any experience gardening?
I decided that I'm going to attempt gardening this year. My dad grew up on a farm and we had crops in the backyard when I was a kid. I still have the old tilling machine that's in good shape and some other rusty tools, but I don't have a hammer to mine silver from nearby rocks so I won't be able to upgrade the stuff.
I think it's too late for my geographic location to start growing early Spring stuff from seeds, so I need to buy some that are already a few weeks old from a local nursery, or maybe online? This stuff sounds kind of fun as long as your expectations are reasonable.

Now that the honeymoon phase is over I think its safe to say wilds sucks ass. The biggest problem for me is the monsters health pool, most hunts won't even last five minutes so what's the point of even playing with other people if you join and the monster goes down a minute after. Its also way too easy and the monsters are so slow its impossible not to react to their attacks.

The worse part is the upcoming updates likely won't fix this. Mizu is a complete pushover and tempered monsters in wilds are a joke so far. I'm still hoping that they introduce some challenge via event quests but I'm not holding my breath.

I read an unexpectedly fucked up novel, but I can't share it with anyone without spoiling it because it's supposed to be cute and sweet before it goes down unexpected roads, but there's no moment of suspense to psychologically torture you if you see everything coming when you're supposed to second guess yourself over and over...

This video was cool. It's interesting to see that performance gap between stone and wooden tools and metal tools isn't as big as media makes it out to be. There's also a surprising level of craftsmanship and technical knowledge going into making these tools, like spears using the trunk end of a tree as the main point as the wood there is harder, or knapping techniques to strike off the exact shapes they need.
