Oh god, I want to play this! It looks awesome. But I suppose this is part of Hollow/Ataraxia so I will have to get that? Or is this mini game available as stand-alone?

I'm not sure if you can play this stand-alone
But this is definitely one of the more fun parts of Hollow/ataraxia, for sure.

Hm, do you know if there an English translation for Hollow/Ataraxia yet? If not I guess I'll just have to take the challenge and tackle the game with my university japanese skills.

I honestly have no idea. You might be better off asking someone else, I only rarely play games with English patching.
-
There WAS apparently a patch for Hollow/Ataraxia in the works, but there's been no sign of progress for months.
Which sucks, because this looks freaking hilarious.
-

Would that mean you play them in Japanese? Because it you do, I would like to ask if you can give me some advice on what to do to improve my own Japanese. Actually that question is for everyone who knows enough Japanese to play games and happens to read this here.
@Roukanken: You're right, I looked around a bit and there's an English patch in progress since about 2 years. Let's hope it will get done sometimes.

I indeed do.
I'd need to know how much Japanese you already know first so I can see what to do to help you.

No, but it's belong in the extra section on the menu screen,which is a separate game, so it can be done if someone can hack it out.

Last I heard, is 85% translated without grammar check yet. I'm playing the Chinese translation, it was awesome. Too bad now is like 95% normal life and 5% fighting, but there's too much epic combination that I am very entertained.

Next Stage: Cross the Danmaku Bridge...

Heheheh. Those pictures and your comments already made my day. Continue that!
Oh, and sorry for using your thread for discussing my personal needs as well. *Bow*
I indeed do.
I'd need to know how much Japanese you already know first so I can see what to do to help you.
Hm, let's see. I've had one and a half year of university language lessons, so from there I know most of the basic grammar. Add to that vocabulary and phrases I've picked up while watching anime. My main problems are a severe lack of vocabulary, and especially, and that's where I would like to get help, knowledge of kanji.
To illustrate it a bit:
As it seems the words I know are enough to make simple conversations, as it has been proven on a trip to Japan a month ago. Also I've realized, while playing a game in Japanese, that when I have furigana for the kanji I can understand quite a lot, or at least look words up in a dictionary quickly.
But when faced with kanji that I don't know how to read, I'm completely lost. So if you have any advice on how to improve such a level of Japanese and especially how to learn kanji I'll gladly take it.
-
Kanji - every student of Japanese nightmare.
Furigana is a great help for learning it, but then, most games and such don't give you such a benefit. Most popular manga, however, do (but quite a lot don't). Immersion through raw reading was how I managed to increase my library of kanji, but I don't know if that'll hold for you, since I never had the advantage of university language lessons (I learn from a young age) or even formal school lessons.

Hm, that's what I thought of as well. So that really seems to be the most effective way. Thanks, now I'm at least sure I'm heading in the right direction.
As for manga without furigana, I have a Touhou-doujin and an Umineko-4koma book here at home that I bought in Japan that I want to translate soon, hope I'll learn something from that.
As for raw manga with furigana, are there any sources you can recommend? Because all of the places I know only have translations.
-
If I recall I know Bleach has some furigana in it, as I have actual physical copy, but then, most of the stuff I read has no furigana >.<;;

(http://img199.imageshack.us/img199/4937/screenhunter06lp.jpg)
I am the bone of my utensils.
Aluminum is my body, and fire is my blood.
I have created over a thousand dishes.
(http://img94.imageshack.us/img94/9437/screenhunter34lp.jpg)
Unaware of burned food.
Nor aware of over-spicing.
Withstood pain to create many delicacy.
Waiting for one's hunger.
I have no regrets, this is the only path.
My whole life was...
