#thank you otome games and anime and miyano mamoru songs

[ghostoftheyear]

Sometimes I think about how much Japanese I've picked up from my special interests or even semi-random sources and I have to laugh. Like, I could make a guide. Yume, dream, was because of the webcomic yu+me by Rosalarian. Uta, song, from Uta no Prince-sama. Tenkuu, vision, from Vision of Escaflowne. (Hitomi, eyes, also from Escaflowne.) Fushigi, mysterious, from Fushigi Yuugi. Even kanji - uta (歌) came up so much in the first UtaPri visual novel I couldn't help but have it burned into my brain, or when I realized that Given's Uenoyama Ritsuka's family name was broken down into 'ue' (上, up or above), 'no' (ノ, the katakana version), 'yama' (山, mountain). Because of recognizing ノ from Tokiya's name (all things really do come back to UtaPri). I know people say you shouldn't learn from anime, but you know, I think it's also a way to help pick up or at least reinforce your learning.
