Lol really!!! Me 2! I'm currently working on disgaea 2 then I'll back to the first.(cuz Laharl is the main character)

Good idea, but pronunciation isn't my problem. I grew up learning languages and making up my own, so I can pretty much adopt any accent I want. If I have trouble, I get on Skype and voice chat with my Japanese friends. ^^ It's the identification of the kanji that troubles me more, the reading of it.

Oh, it's going great. I'm not so much translating as trying to use my favorite stories to help me be able to recognize and understand kanji. If you know a sentence is talking about two nuclear missiles being transformed into a bowl of petunias and a rather surprised-looking whale, it helps a lot more to know ahead of time than to be identifying the kanji and then stopping to wonder, "Wait, what...?" Also, it helps to identify quicker. I already know the kanji for "taiyou" (sun) "ginga" (galaxy) "henpi" (remote) and several other words, and that's just by going over the first few sentences. I'm talking about a book I've read so much in English that I've practically memorized it, haha.

Interesting! Were you able to communicate despite that or was it too difficult? My friend in Taiwan still makes a good number of English mistakes, but she and I can also speak via Japanese (she started learning a couple years after I did), and she and I are studying kanji together when we can.

Lol same here:3 It's hard to meet disgaea fans for some odd reason. I'm doing well, I'm going to afest next month so I'm pretty excited:3

Haha I've learned about twenty, but I recognize them and their meaning more than I actually read them. I was helping my friends with their English in exchange, so the learning went both ways.

Wow, your friends are good ones, teaching another language is hard. Lol I only remember 1-10 kanji XD
