I thought I was just going to come up with a favorite episode of mine in the first season and then realized it was in Super
Unsurprisingly based on my avatar, a lot of my favorite episodes revolve around Minako. But my other favorite is Michiru, so they tend to be Minako episodes later in the series.
I used to watch it as a kid in elementary school. 1 episode monday to friday between school and lunch. So when Mamoru and Usagi first remember who they are, hit hard… as well as the final 3 or 4 episodes where all the sailor senshi die and mamoru dies and usagi has to brave and then everyone comes to help her… and then everyone is dead… FEELS! I will never not remember the anxiety waiting for the next episode and the excitedness when the opening started. Pure nostalgia.
Depends on the cards, and depends on the checks Amazon does. I managed to sign up after a lot of trial and error, then after a month they started locking me out of some audiobooks that I have previously started because my region… so there’s that.
I have mine tied to my US credit card and they are happy to take their ¥900 or whatever it costs from me monthly with no complaints.
I would suggest using a different email address (or if you have a Gmail address use a + or . to give Amazon technically a different email address) just in case something happens so they don’t freeze your main Amazon account.
I’ve tried at least twice, with different cards and unique emails from my main account and been flagged and shut down pretty quickly both times so ymmv. I also used valid JP addresses (I’m probably on a list )
I don’t remember if I did it with or without a VPN at this point since it’s been over a year since I last tried. I have plenty of audiobook content now though given I bought audiobook.jp’s 聞き放題, so not really in need of more My comment was just calling out that sometimes you follow the steps and they still get ya
Definitely. I know I don’t have any problems, but that it’s not uncommon to have them. I find it easier to navigate audible (since I on again off again have it with my American account whenever they have good deals on it) but would probably jump to audiobook if I had troubles.
At some point I might go there anyway since they don’t have entirely the same catalogs, there’s some stuff on audiobook that I’d want to listen to.
Welp. It’s the last week of August and I am not going to make my goal. Not even close. Strangely enough, I don’t really feel bad about it.
I don’t know why, but this month I really hit a slump in my Japanese learning/immersion/etc. Actually, I think I hit a slump in most of my hobbies (except for playing video games in English). At least next week begins a new month! I’m not going to set any goals for September since I’ll be starting a new job soon (or rather, getting rehired by a company that I worked at previously). I’ll take everything one step at a time.
I got another decent day in thanks to youtube presenting me the gift of interesting videos and another episode of unknown アンノウン S1 | L30?? (which I’m enjoying a lot)
A little over 2 hours.
Slumps suck (been on/off myself this year), but so long as you keep plodding forward you’ll get somewhere eventually! Good luck!
Today I logged 3 hours between finishing up 本好き and listening to some podcasts. Getting very very close to the end of the month and my goal now…
Also - Thanks to everyone who gave advice on how to sign up for audible jp! I already have the 聴き放題 for audiobook.jp, but I will consider what I want to do and see if there are books in the catalog that I’m interested in.
On day 27 I did around 33 minutes of focused listening (the second chapter of ふしぎ駄菓子屋・銭天堂 book 2) and about an hour of passive listening.
Today, I have done around 2 hours so far of focused listening, more Japanese with Shun and then some on Shashingo. Mostly all basic stuff but still practice.
BTW something that was not brung, but these audiobooks are available in the international audible.com store, so if you have problems with cards, you can get them there.
I’ll probably jump to the next volume, but I’ll think along the day. I also recently bought the first 3 audiobooks of GJ部 | L24 to get the free promotional credit that was going around the app.
