Japanese Help?

Posted in Language at 4:51 pm by Dave Badtke

This from Gene Expression, a game that helps with hiragana, katakana and kanji:

It is called Slime Forest. The slimes attack and yell characters at you to which you must respond appropriately. Save the princess!

While I realize that I’ll never learn to read and speak Japanese if I don’t study, which I’m not tending to do even though both boys and their partners live in Tokyo, I’m thinking that a game like this might help me. On the other hand, a language drug injected directly into my brain would save a lot of time — like years.
