How goes it everyone? Mao-tastic frenzy as usual? ;)

KurosakiKaien

Hello everyone. Long time no see. For those of you who do remember me, I posted here nearly a year ago with regards to an impossible (drama-esque) story. If you're really curious as to know about it, you can find the original thread way back somewhere in the previous pages. Basically to give the edi...

My university uses "Nakama" 1 and 2 books which I'm sure you can find on Amazon/Ebay (For levels 100-200).. The 300 level book however is a different one.. which is garbage... Everyone's suggestions above are very good ones. You're on the right page though coming here to ask, in that the b...

Just as quashio and lomsie have said, it makes alot more sense to use either your Chinese name written in Japanese, or use your English name.

Don't forget that Japanese have the choice of any combination of kanji/kana for their names, so get creative~ ;)

KurosakiKaien

:D:D

That'd indeed be great ats You know if you have any questions or need anything you can always ask~

Now to get a Mao siggy with her saying "Bimyouuuuu" lol...

Thanks ats , yeah I've just been busy with school, 2 weeks ago was finals and now the Spring session has started so it's back to excessive amounts of readings.. -_-;; As for the contest, yes usually those prizes are limited to postcard entries coming from within Japan unfortunately. When are you pla...

Hi all! I'm back from the dead... for now... lol How's everyone doing? Just to add on a previous translation by ToriQ about the Chocola ad: The left reads "Amongst the correctly answered quizzes, a lottery will determine..." (the Red and Blue Chocola's special present). Deadline is 7/11 - ...

Ken thanks for finding out for us :-) Sometimes those CMs you can just never tell what the heck they are advertising! :lol Isnt the whole point of an advertisement getting across the what heck you want to sell?! Ahh they dont need to take any pills for energy, they just need to watch some stuff wit...

KurosakiKaien

The CM is for Chocola BB. Not quite sure what it is though. Maybe some kind of indigestion medicine? :scratch: more pics here: http://tieba.baidu.com/f?kz=348384392 After looking at the ads, its actually for a skin product (some form of moisterizer). The "red" is for dry skin, and the &qu...

Thanks Ken for the Mao translations! hahah. now i get it more.. thaanks!

No problem karz~ Feel free to ask any time.

KurosakiKaien

You can just call me "Ken" karz, as roxie has dubbed me ^^;; A word by word break down of the phrase is "Ore ga suki na no wa Omae da yo baka" "The one I like is you, don't you know idiot?" I've transliterated it a little bit as with the subtitles, but basically "O...

Hihi Ginoru, 僕が君達と比べたら、井上真央様の新しいファンですけど。。。

KurosakiKaien

Apparently it's some yearly poll by "Bubka"... which seems very shady; however, given that the names on the list of 'most hated' seem fairly legitimate to me (with exception to Nagasawa) I wouldn't deem it false or entirely fabricated. I got the news from erika-sawajiri.net, probably one o...

KurosakiKaien

Thanks celki~ roxie > Heheh sounds good.. that's a mighty impressive guess... considering that's my name in Japan hehehe ^^;; けんなら大丈夫～ As for why Mao-chan wasn't on that list... I'd prefer her not to be on either list, seeing as how there's always those 'losers' (for a lack of a better term) who lik...

KurosakiKaien

Thanks for the welcome everybody!　　真央ちゃんにはすごくすぎるじゃない？　ええと。。。魅力的なんだなー！

roxie > Sure thing... though... why Ken? Just curious... 健三でも大丈夫だけど～

As for Sawajiri-sama, she is the most hated yes.. but also in the most liked list, along with Nagasawa Masami and Ogura Yuko (who are also in both lists...)

KurosakiKaien

Thanks for the welcome guys! The idol's name is Kinoshita Ayumi, she's a few years Mao-chan's senior (hence the Onee-san comment). I honestly believe they look very similar, not particularly in the photos I've posted but 'on screen' If you view some of Kinoshita's previous work (Tokusou Sentai Dekar...

KurosakiKaien

Hi guys, I'm honestly a Sawajiri fan at heart but recently Mao-chan's charm has really worked her magic. I've previously been a fan of another Idol who I believe Mao-chan resembles to an almost uncanny level. http://img186.imageshack.us/my.php?image=weeklyfamitsu20077no971xh2.jpg http://img412.image...

Just in case anyone is wondering, almost always below the yesasia item descriptions, they list the retail price of the product in yen for reference.

Hello again everyone, the dinner was on Saturday. It started out nice enough, I gave her (as well as my friends) the gifts I wanted to give. She seemed quite thrilled with the plush bear I had gotten her. And I told her not to open the other present I gave her until her birthday. After the dinner, a...

KurosakiKaien

Time's ticking, just thought I'd update everyone with possibly the last update for this story. The lunch I had previously mentioned with her turned out as a failure of course, because it didn't happen. If I didn't know better, its like someone's willing us apart... But the last meeting will be this ...

KurosakiKaien

Actually, (although i'm only a teen) i am in a very depressing possition right now with an impossible relationship. You see, there is this guy that i ...

KurosakiKaien

Hey everyone, thanks for all your replies. ruisu > Thanks for the support, there have been a numerous times where I have thought about telling her how I feel, as you say, worst comes to worst "it'll put a smile on her face." But the biggest issue I've had with thinking about that is that i...

KurosakiKaien

Well you know what they say: its better to have loved and lost than never ha... pffff haahaah, I almost wrote that with a straight face! You should have banged her then all your fantasizing about her would vanish and you would be able to focus on important things (a category of things women do not ...

KurosakiKaien

No problem, you're more than welcome. If you need anything feel free to ask here, or PM me, always good to help a fellow Canadian out hehe. Also, just in case you're unfamiliar (though I'm sure you're not): If they respond with something along the lines of "imasen", "dekakemashita&quo...

KurosakiKaien

"Ohayou gozaimasu, Ayumi-san wa irasshaimasen ka?" Would be the proper keigo I believe, when is her birthday? I'll have to double check the proper keigo, but I think that's right. And I assume you already know how to say "Happy Birthday" ;) *edit* I've changed irasshaimasu to the...

The way it's taught in my classes here is more or less as how quashlo describes it. At the end of each chapter (the first 7 have 10-15 Kanji at the end of each chapter) then in the next volume it became 30 Kanji per chapter. I don't recommend learning them on a speedy basis as the class does (it'll ...

KurosakiKaien

If I may give my opinion... The possibilities here are not THAT highly impossible. They're just as impossible as any other relationship... A girl and a boy. Distance, third party, one-sided emotion, it's just as possible in any other circumstance of boy wants girl. :) So... I don't think your case ...

KurosakiKaien

I wish you the best. :-) What exactly did you write in your letter? Did you make it clear of your intentions? At least your her friend, aren't you? That's a good start I think. Have you tried calling her to see how she is? Practice as much Japanese and learn as much as you can I guess, then try tal...

Hey everyone, it's been a long time since I posted on here, quite possibly too long. But I just wanted everyone's opinion on 'impossible relationships' so to speak. Of course.. this kind of discussion isn't fair unless I have something to present myself: I just completed my second year of Japanese s...

I agree about her modelling thingy. Seems a bit weird, aside from her Shiseido and more mature modelling pics. :-) When I first watched Densha, she didn't appeal much to me.
