ryc3, it is SO time for me to adopt the new technology. I will be visiting the local electronics store this week! :salut: PS I know there's been a recent upgrade to the study books, but I believe the questions are largely the same, particularly at the easiest levels. http://www.amazon.com/Zaidanhou...

What exactly is too easy about it? basic kanji. reading and writing of 80 different ones. stroke and count orders of each kanji. If you know the basic first grade kanji fairly well you should be able to pass it. level 1 is the hardest one. Here's a video of me passing level 10. http://www.youtube.c...

I can sub in Japanese but for me it's just a waste of time because of understanding the story line and learning "new" slangs and words. Some guy on youtube asked me to sub Full Metal Alchemist season 3. I told him the reason why I wouldn't do it. It's because I hate watching anime and I'd ...

I'm asian male myself. I think the reason you never see an asian guy w/ an "X" Ethnic because... some guys like a girl and never had the courage to tell the girl. And when they find out the girl they liked is going out with so and so they just give up. :\ I like latinas, and etc.
