I'm too lazy to learn Japanese but fuck I don't know how fucking bad you have to be at ENGLISH to think translation software is any good. The shit that comes out of any of this stuff, or the new AI shit is mangled to hell and makes huge errors you don't need to know a single word of Japanese to pick up. I'll still put up with MTLs if I have no choice but I'm convinced everyone who thinks AI translations are good doesn't know either language
>>

It's just the same jeets that champion the "death" of artists because now they can get a computer to make a poor facsimile.

I understand the troonlation argument a little more because regular troonlation work is so fucking bad to begin with, but anyone expecting AI to save them from that is beyond delusional.

Probably not no. If you know even basic grammar you're ahead. The main difference is that you'd know when you don't understand something while the someone relying only on MTL must take everything at face value.

When they're not around a machine they can't use the language at all. They would not be able to seduce a Japanese girl even if they wanted to. Neither can you, but alas.

You can make some progress but that's a bit too optimistic. It takes way more time to learn a language. Though I suppose it also depends on your personal standards of what "learn a language" means. Like, you'll learn tourist shit, but nowhere near enough to understand media or have a conversation.

Honestly, if you know a language other than english, you're moderately okay. The bottom of the barrel shit is english specific. There's some trickle-down because other languages may use english as thee base, but even then they still end up being better than the english,

First of all, it takes more than a year to be at a level that you can read the better VNs.

Second of all, JP is a dead-end language. I actually pity anyone who wasted years of their life learning it just to participate from the sidelines in otaku culture when Korea and China are rapidly eclipsing Japan in cultural exports.

You should just treat the learning in itself as a hobby and not worry how "useful" the language is going to be.
It's highly unlikely learning any particular language other than english (if you don't already speak it) will turn out useful outside of very specific personal circumstances or goals. If opportunity arises for you to move to bumfuckignstan and marry a local woman you will learn bumfuckingstani even if it's not a popular langauge to learn.

Sub 6 months. Spend a couple months where you learn some basic grammar, get some basic vocabulary, and you're good to go read most VNs/games/anime. You're not going to have perfect comprehension, you're going to be very slow at the start, and you'll definitely want a dictionary on hand, but you can read. And it will get easier. People vastly overestimate the knowledge needed to consume japanese media in japanese. And the reality is that most of the knowledge you need can only be obtained by consuming media.

There's a difference between wanting to be able to deal with a language because you see it as an obstruction to you playing things (ie. everything would be better if it was in English and Japanese is just a means to an end) and wanting to actually understand the language because it's interesting to you and you want to hear the author's original words as they wrote it, you want to be able to understand how they think, why something is written the way it is, the mindset of the culture.

Just ask yourself. Do specific characters using watashi, boku, ore, atashi, watakushi, uchi, etc. fascinate you on some small level and you worry about that getting generalized as "I", or do you only care that it's "I" and that's functional to you? I think that everyone who likes translator notes actually likes learning Japanese facts, so why not take the plunge?

manga ocr is really good for me but only on like 2 or 3 standard fonts, and you have to manually cut out the parts with the text only, so no having the program scan the entire image for you and automatically detect text

I use it all the time for translation work, and type out anything else I know it won't recognize. Pretty much a 99.99% accuracy rate, only fucking up when the page quality is so low that amateurs wouldn't know what character it is they're reading.
>>
>>732230806
I used Kanji Study. It's a mobile app. You have to pay to actually start training past the 100 basic kanji or so, but considering I can now read native material and know how to (more or less) properly write kanji I've never seen before, it was probably the best money I've ever spent.

I can't actually write most characters from memory most of the time. In fact a majority of Japanese people can't. But it helped train my brain to recognize the internal structure of kanji, which is step one of learning to write. Afterwards, you would actually have to practice writing from memory actively, and I never did that.

This makes the task bigger, but it's honestly kinda cool to do, especially if you're interested in writing it well. Shodou 書道 is Japanese calligraphy, and there's a lot of practice to make aesthetically-pleasing writing. The balance, the weight of the curves, the trails, the strokes and their order, and even what you write with all make so much of a difference.
https://youtu.be/cLJU0BHmJ4Y
It just feels like one of those neat skills to have not because you need it, but because it's something you chose to do to further your understanding and output. Plus, there's a good number of learners who feel like they haven't mastered a kanji until they can consistently write it in stroke order. It gives you a good metric to measure yourself by.
>>
>>732231290
manga ocr can just listen in on a folder and you could have a screenshot program drop snippets in there, and the ocr would read out the text for every image it sees. You could write the text out to a file and/or read the output immediately. Does it work the same way?

Okay, if you just count the structured study then maybe. The problem is getting to the level when you can do even simple media without having to check every other word and it just being frustrating. It will only slowly move from feeling like work to something you can actually enjoy while also learning. Once you get to that point, depending on what your tolerance for not understanding is, you pretty much won and it's downhill from there though.
