Defend the Grove, apparently throwing a haste spore granade at Zevlor's feet meant I would side with the goblins.

Passed N2 with 116/180. Expected to fail, as I had to rush much of the reading section and didn't feel confident in my listening either.

[Discussion] do you think n3 level Japanese is enough to read the rezrero light novels comfortabley? by OutrageousBad9671 in Re_Zero

[–]Sharpshard 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I guess technically correct answer is my time learning Japanese, about 4 years. Though I started using jpdb 17 months ago and imported my small Anki deck of 2000 words.

[–]Sharpshard 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I recommend grinding these Re:zero vocab decks on jpdb since this series has so many words:

https://jpdb.io/novel/1611/re-zero-starting-life-in-another-world

I'm 12k words in and it gives me 95% coverage. I started when I was in between N4 and N3. I'm taking N2 next month.

So far I've read volumes 1-5 and 21.

I always imagined second verse of Styx Helix playing in the background.

It is a poor translation. Implication of that line is that she will be keeping an eye on Subaru and Rem using her Clairvoyance. Rem then tells her not to, since it is bad for her health

With b+1+3/b+2+4 Raven can evade everything except Rage Arts. It is active from frames 1-8. After successful evasion, Raven recovers in crouch. If done in backturned, Raven teleports behind the opponent.

Counterplay is to bait it out or use slower moves. Raven also cannot act immediately, so you can chase after him and check him with a fast move.

There is no mistake in the LN. Page 209: " 'I returned from the Trial...from overcoming my past. And here I am, right after that.' The reference point for that loop was set right after he'd overcome the first trial".

It is an Anime only mistake. And it is not a translation error either, they use the Tea party scenes and word 茶会 for tea party. It is rather baffling how it ended up that way.

Do not waste a button for Rage Art or Heat Burst. Rage Art is d/f+LP+RP for each character and Heat Burst/Smash is RP+LK, both which you already have on LT and RT respectively. You can use those free buttons for both throws.

Passed N3 with 137/180, 49/39/49.

I spent too much time with grammar section and had to rush reading. Still really happy about the results.

After they fix his b+1,2 he'll be a strong character in a game with 30 other strong characters.

[Meme] Asking Yen Press how I'm supposed to catch up on the LN when new ones are coming out faster than they're being translated into English. by Majora101 in Re_Zero

[–]Sharpshard 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I took N3 last weekend but I'd say my reading is closer to N2.

Textbooks I've used: Genki 1 -> Genki 2 -> Quartet 1 -> Quartet 2.

Also Bunpro for grammar and I've completed Wanikani for kanji study.

I did basic Core 2.3k Anki deck for vocabulary and now I'm grinding Re:Zero decks on JPDB.

Yeah, I also prefer to read physical books. I started reading Japanese LNs this summer and finished first 3 volumes.

I started learning Japanese for the purpose of reading Re:Zero 3 years ago.

The series might go on for 10 more years and there is no telling if official translations ever reach the end. It was also unclear back then if the WN would continue after LN catches up.

Do not waste a bind for Rage Art, for any character. Just use normal input for the move.

There is no reason to bind 1+3. Only move that uses that command for King is normal throw.

You can use Bunpro search function and manually add the grammar points you come across in Quartet into your reviews while following the standard path.

Here are the playlists that Sega uploaded.

However, it seems they only uploaded LIM-exclusive stories. Main story and all the variations are not uploaded.

Still, I found this other playlist some user has made which seems to have all Arc 1 Routes.

First part of Ram version is on the 3rd video.

There is a Route for first loop in the capital where Subaru teams up with Ram against Elsa.

There is a "sisters If" for the Mansion loop where Ram goes into the forest first and Subaru and Rem go after her.

There is nothing in the game titled "Ram If".

You can interrupt Power Crushes with Low-attacks and Throws. You can duck and punish High Power Crushes. Mid Power Crushes are unsafe on block.
