    Maybe just the accent? I’ve heard it as ひとり everywhere myself.

    @Michael Ah yes I have a bunch of Dreamcast games I need to get through. Shenmue looks great through a VGA box! It’s crazy. Shenmue 2 is entirely Japanese, so I can pretend that’s educational. ;)

    @Michael I can’t remember that part now, doh. I think April is a really good character, her voice actor is so talented! I’ve heard good things about Dreamfall, I have no idea when I’ll get around to that because I have Skyrim and Battlefield 3 eating time up, I’ve also just ordered Ultimate Marvel vs. Capcom 3 and as a fighting game junkie I can see all my time going to that, luckily I have enough control to sneak in Japanese studying in addition, it’ll just be less mouse and keyboard, more arcade stick for a while! :D

    “Increase the amount of kanji & kanji vocab I learn.”

    Well I have definitely been doing that, I must study kanji 10 times as much as I was back then.

    I don’t really have anything new to add, but I am going to increase the amount of words I learn from the ultimate lists from 20 –> 30 a day as of tomorrow and continue doing 30-60 minutes of Read the Kanji every day.

    and I want to finish every ultimate list within 3 weeks, I haven’t done any of the TextFugu lessons in a while because I would rather have them finished off first. Not sure if that’s the best way to do it but if I’m trying to learn 30 words a day, doing Anki reviews while learning kanji + misc vocab on Read the Kanji I think I’ll hit information overload. D:

    @Michael I’m on chapter 7 I think, I bought it on Steam for around £3 with Dreamfall, so I’m excited to get around to that as well! Shame it doesn’t support any higher resolutions but it doesn’t look all that bad, the voice acting is so good!

    Wow that’s crazy. Even a quick Google search doesn’t make it sound that scary… I would have expected tons of articles about how bad it is if those figures are accurate. Damn.

    Hmm I don’t think you can really apply a rule to it, but you can remember that once you get past 10 it will almost always end with にち

    1 ends with たち
    11-13 end with にち
    15-19 end with にち
    21-23 end with にち
    25-31 end with にち

    Everything else ends with か.

    I would imagine there’s more people in need from the effects of the earthquake and tsunami than there is related to child abduction cases. I’m not trying to downplay child abduction, but that’s just how I would see it. I don’t think we should really be criticising the choice of charity either, you could lament the same criticism to anywhere doing donations. That said I do think it’s silly that a lot of people donate to churches instead of charities helping people, rather than helping an already untaxed association…

    Yeah that doesn’t work for many dates at all. Exceptions all over the place.

    @Michael you’d think that, but I see it as the corporate fat cats want the Aussies and those in other areas where games are really pricey to pay the full amount there, rather than being able to easily import them from elsewhere for cheaper, earning them less money. I’m pretty impressed that Sony have kept the 100% region free (for games) attitude across the PSP, PS3 and now the Vita. Kudos!

    I had to choose which desktop to take a picture of on my Mac because I use 3 other virtual ones on it. :D

    The 3DS isn’t region free which is incredibly stupid and annoying. The upcoming Vita will be region free, though. I’m looking forward to importing the Japanese version of Persona 4: The Golden ever so much.
