I just got to the end of Season 2, and the page states “coming soon” for the review.
Is there by chance an ETA on that portion, or should I just move on?
August 20, 2013 at 7:51 am #41614Just move on. Knowing Koichi, it probably won’t be till next year that anything gets updated, sorry.
September 3, 2013 at 6:29 pm #41806This is really unfortunate for a service that is $20/mon.

AnonymousKoichi probably won’t update Textfugu in another 5 or 6 years, so I’d switch to lifetime membership if I were you.
September 4, 2013 at 4:13 pm #41817That is ridiculous logic.
September 4, 2013 at 10:32 pm #41818Who said anything about logic? (^^)
September 8, 2013 at 7:04 pm #41843I’m sorta disappointed… I read about how TextFugu was going to include advanced content, and under that assumption, purchased a lifetime membership. It’s only now that I realize EtoEto already exists, and it’s past the deadline to get the free membership. :/
I feel a bit gypped since I was under the same impression as the older users, as apparently no effort was made to revise old content concerning this issue, nor publicize EtoEto. (I even did some searching about “Project Kuma” and didn’t find anything indicating that it had already begun)
I’m currently in Season 2 of TextFugu and haven’t learned anything yet, due to prior familiarity with Japanese. I can only hope it ends up covering enough new material for me for it to have been worth the lifetime, or else I’m going to regret not just paying monthly for a couple of months and burning through everything.
I guess I can still get a discount on WaniKani, but it’s still a real letdown to be told EtoEto would require yet another hole in the wallet. :<

September 11, 2013 at 11:11 am #41876@Jamuko: If you’re not happy, ask for a refund. If you’ve got past experience of Japanese, TextFugu probably isn’t really for you. Just a note though, he’s on vacation until 5th of October I think, or at least that’s what his email auto-respond said when I tried emailing him earlier.
Just curious, what kind of past experience have you had with Japanese?
September 11, 2013 at 3:03 pm #41878Sorry, I honestly feel bad for being negative on here. :x Overall, I’m really, really loving these services. I just felt kinda crappy after finding out about the EtoEto thing, that’s all.
As for my prior experience… I still consider myself a beginner in Japanese, so that’s why I started with TextFugu. I’ve never had any kind of focused training or classes, but I guess ~10 years of casual interest counts for more than I thought. I feel really pathetic for how low my level is after wanting to learn for that long… so I got tired of waffling around and decided I really needed to build a more secure foundation to learn on top of, rather than just cobbling together bits and pieces in a tiresome effort to fit the puzzle together. And BAM, here I am.
I’m loving the approach in TextFugu; it’s just that I went into it already knowing hiragana and other uber-basics, so it’s just taking a little longer for me to reach the stuff I need. I’m sure it’ll be worth it in the end, so I kinda regret saying that stuff in my last post!
