    After hearing rants on EVERYTHING genes dictate I’m pretty earwax is in there somewhere.
    I’m 93.77% positive, but there might be some outside factors too though.

    Heh, I haven’t had a root-beer in years… Recently I’ve just been living off of vanilla flavored almond milk.

    I might pay to see the TextFugu team in drag.

    Oh, and I forgot this one, apparently Japanese people intrinsically hate root-beer. Can anyone vouch for that?

    The RealKana app is the best, it includes normal hiragana/katakana, dakuten, combo hiragana/katakana (the site doesn’t), and when you get to it in chapter three it even includes the “weird” katakana characters (which the sit also doesn’t include). They even give you more fonts, all of which are even harder to read :P

    @missingno: Hmmm, dunno, Then again Hashi seems like a pretty cool dude… yea, maybe like a Hashi cell phone strap, or maybe Koichi. It depends on who wins in Starcraft more.

    Thanks! Oh, and on my pc typing ‘xtu’ (not ‘xtsu’) gets tiny tsu, don’t really know why.

    Just for the record, when your keyboard is in Japanese mode, how do you type a chuon or a tiny つ/ツ?

    Ehrm… I guess I’ll post this here too in hopes of being read.

    I was wondering if anybody has any edition of ‘Remembering The Kanji I’ that they aren’t currently using. I would really like to have the book in paper form for the duration of my study, but I’m really low on ‘study funds’. So, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to let me borrow one for however long it would take me to complete it (my guess is less then 2 months, as I’m a pretty dedicated worker).

    The WaniKani thread answered quite a few questions I had about RTK, so it might be worth looking. As for boring, I can’t say, because I just started (and I don’t tend to find studying Japanese boring), but I already have around 40 kanji under my belt with around 1 hour of study. Not to shabby. So go for it, it can only help :D

    Oh, and since this is probably going to become the new RTK related thread I might as well ask. Does anybody have any edition of ‘Remembering The Kanji I’ that they aren’t currently using. I would really like to have the book in paper form for the duration of my study, but I’m really low on ‘study funds’. So, I was wondering if anybody would be willing to let me borrow one for however long it would take me to complete it (my guess is less then 2 months, as I’m a pretty dedicated worker).

    Reading through the introduction of RTK, the author seemed to discourage using the textbook while taking a Japanese class… would that include TextFugu?

    Probably the same answer, but what about the beta testing dates?

    If you don’t mind spending a few bucks either, RealKana made an app for a few dollars. Simple, but amazingly effective.

    Edit: oh sorry, did see you used android, don’t know if RealKana is for android yet…
