The Official Japan Thread 2.0 "Nani?"

That shit is Guy tactics 101. Says to do far standing fierce->jab Inazuma drop. You want to space the stand fierce so only the fist hits the other character’s hit box. It also mentions that Inazuma drop won’t grab in the corner, so once you rush your opponent down, you should lure them a bit towards the center again to keep up the pattern.

I think its ‘Your body is open!’ or ‘your body is open there!’

I think its ‘Your body is open!’ or ‘your body is open there!’

BTW my plans are to get to a-cho kinda early, and then to play a lot of Arcana Heart 3, as well as cheer you guys on and hang out. I’m then gonna have to meet up with my friend at Kyoto station, and then I’m gonna be going to Shiga-ken to hang out with him for the 3 day weekend. So I’ll be busy Sat night/Sun, but I’ll still get to see you guys for a bit, at least. <3

A definite NO.

body ga amee ze = your body is WEAK

body ha amee ze = YOUR BODY is weak

or something like that.

basic pattern

far s.mp hit/blocked, cancelled into lp bushin izuna drop. basically taking advantage of the opponent in hit/block stun, press the punch button to throw.

then something about when your opponent goes to the corner, retreat back to the center of the stage, and repeat the above strategy. (because bushin izuna drop wont work in the corner)

Dammit you beat me to it!

“Body ga… amai!”
(Your body’s weak!)

booo I thought we were gonna hang out with chicks. I guess I’ll have to hang out with them myself! :stuck_out_tongue:

Like I said, the maid cafe is right there for the picking. Just beat RF in casuals or something and then be like “Hey, did you see me beat that GDLK Sagat player? And I’m not even Japanese! Wanna go somewhere more private?” Piece of cake.

Or, maybe we can take Kunai on the field trip.

Umm, wut? I thought you said you were doing another SFIV gathering on sunday?

Either way, it’s snowing in Shiga-ken, so I’m not quite sure I want to go…

But if you have better plans, let me know.

:china:

Thank you, gentlemen.

Any takers for the bottom part of the page?

well, you and Kunai were bugging me to take the JLPT with you guys, so I figured we could go to Starbucks and practice Japanese by having you two hit on girls in Starbucks. lol

anyway if you guys wanna chill at my place on Sunday that’s cool too. I wanna hit the gym in the morning but afternoon and evening is cool beans for chillin.

<_<

Maybe I’ll go to Shiga-ken.

However, I’ll be back in Osaka on Monday, so if you’re free…well, you know where to find me. <3

Kunai is in for the weekend!

One day imma go to Osaka, maybe you guys can take me to cool places lol… ive only been there once for a day and a half, most of it spent at USJ (went there with my fam)

Happy New Year SRK Japan crew, I know a couple of the members here have done or do translation work so I wanted to ask a question: How do you break into the business??? Im pretty sure I past 1 kyuu which seems to be a requisite and Ill get the result in a month, but I know that JLPT 1 kyuu aint enough,you need experience, right? Like some translation projects and what not? How do you find those? My current english teaching job will be ending in couple of months and Im hoping I can find a in-house translation job (video-game related- but thats wishful thinking…)?Any advice or tid-bits of info would be much appreciated.

Ronin, start by volunteering for organizations that need translation/interpretation help. That works to build a resume and experience.

In-house translation is definitely out there. You can also do freelance stuff from your house, but that’s after you have a small resume. Incidentally freelance translation can be really rough if you don’t know what you’re doing, so be careful. I’d advise at least 4 years in-house experience before freelancing.

 Thanks for the advice Adverse. I really appreciate it. Ill go to my local international center and start asking around -- gotta be assertive, ya know. Not looking to do freelance: maybe one day far in the future.   By the way, liking your av, dude.

 Anyone know of any good websites for looking for jobs here other than Gaijinpot??? Doubt theres much more than english teaching jobs there.

To anyone here with Japanese a second language: how long did it take you to learn the language? I’m thinking about learning it myself.

Shout outs to everyone in Nihon right now, hope all is well and this new year will bless you.

King999, Japanese isn’t particularly my second language however I can say that if you truly want to become experienced with the language, it will take some time. I’ve been studying Japanese for about 1-2 years now and I still haven’t grasped everything.
