JUDGE EYES:死神の遺言 would be great. Good length and more mature story. Definitely not beginner friendly though. For some of the N1 aiming folks could be very good!
Just sharing some study notes I took from the video: 核 - かく = nuclear, nucleus or core of something 核兵器 = nuclear weapons 核のごみ = nuclear waste 核戦争 = nuclear war 核攻撃 = nuclear attack 鍵 - かぎ = key Could be used as a metaphorical sense or literally as “key”. 大佐 - たいさ = colonel 棟 -とう= building (counter). Can often be used to count buildings, but also to count wings of a building like “東棟” (the east building = ひがしとう), “病棟” (the hospital wingびょうとう). 発射 - はっしゃ = fire/launch P.s: it can also be used as a する verb. Examples: 発射ボタン(launch button); 発射する (to launch); ミサイル発射 (a missile launch). 核弾頭 - かくだんとう = nuclear warheads かまわない = I don’t mind 基地 - きち = base (military). Examples: 民間の基地 - みんかんのきち = civilian base; 空軍基地 - くうぐんきち= air force base; 海軍基地 - かいぐんきち- A naval base. 起爆 - きばく= detonation 地下- ちか= underground . Examples: 地下室 - ちかしつ = A basement room; 地下鉄 - ちかてつ= underground train; 地下街 - ちかがい= an underground shopping street. 遺伝子 - いでんし= genes Examples: 遺伝子治療 - いでんしちりよう = gene therapy; 助ける - たすける = to help; save; rescue. Examples: 命を助ける = to save a life/いのちたすける. 探す - さがす= to search; look for. 人間= にんげん= human being. 言ったでしょ = I told you. 撃つ = うつ = to shoot (a gun). 撃てるか！？= Can you shoot!? 新米 = rookie 止める- とめる= to stop/prevent 隠す-かくす= to hide/to conceal If you want to just say “hide”, you use the intransitive 隠れる。 はずだ = it should be… (expectation). You use it in the end of a sentence. For polite version use はずです とにかく= at any rate んだ= explaining/giving orders ところだ = express what is about to or is happening. Used to express something happening right now = When the verb thats comes before is in the ている form, the progressive form. Ex: 勉強しているところだ.
This is a great format! I think the grammar part is the most useful and could be longer (as in more grammar) in future videos since it is easy to learn vocab from anki cards but for grammar rules it is helpful to get a short explanation.
Thanks for watching and enjoying the video! How many more grammar points would be ideal? Are you happy with the overall video length? Appreciate the feedback!
@@GameGengoHey Matt Grammas isn’t as needed since you have grammar from n5 n4 and n3 all available so any vocabulary breakdowns are valuable. Many thanks!!
I agree that grammar is not as needed in this format given you already have dedicated videos for them. That said, adding a couple more grammar points wouldn’t hurt as long as they’re easy to explain (since harder grammar points might make the video too long).
Have you ever done a video on common videogame language? Especially for RPGs? For example: Strength, agility, spirit? Kind of like this video but much more broad for all types of games?
I would say his jlpt n (x) videos are the closest ive seen him do this idea. Its just those are more associated with the test rather than a genre like youre thinking of.
What I like about this format is often when trying to get through a new story I find I miss one or 2 key words or phrases and so while I understand the moment to moment action I lose the over all plot. Focusing in on the key words to listen in for is a great way to help focus in to try playing the game without having to do your usual format of multi hour play through videos (which I do also love)
Matt, great video as always!! My only suggestion would be to mention the Kanji meanings of each word. You did it for some, but not all of the words, like 大佐 = Big Help lol. It’s funny to think of it that way, but it makes sense. I feel like this makes words stick better for me, so it might help others too. Keep up the great work!!
You know, I've thought about how something like this would be useful before and came to the conclusion that "no one would have the patience to make a resource in this style"... and yet here it is, better than I could have even imagined! Thank you so much for releasing this high quality quantity for free out there!!!!
Love this format, it's very fun and engaging! I think 20-30 minutes is a great length, and I really enjoyed the quiz at the end. Like others have said a couple more grammar points would be great as well.
i think this is the sweet spot. I watched this video in one go. Some of the longer videos like Ronin and Yakuza vids take me several sittings to get through so this was a really nice length and format.
I thought this was perfect for me. That 20-30 minute video length let's me get through the entire thing in a single sitting without having multiple interruptions. Loved this entire video. Thank you so much for what you do. It's greatly appreciated.
I agree that things like grammar, slang, and older archaic speech would be the things that trip up most of those that like to receive help from these types of videos. Speaking for myself, learning verbs and nouns in isolation isn't necessarily a difficult hurdle that prevents a smooth playthrough, since rote memorization can be done through things like Anki easily. However, the analysis of the entire sentence itself and all of its parts coming together, especially in situations heavy on different dialects, slang, or older speech, is the prime helpful aspect of the vocab series. Either way, I appreciate the content.
I've enjoyed this new format. t Thanks Matt, please make more of this format, it's really helpful.😁😁😁 この新しいフォーマットが楽しかった。ありがとうマットさん。お願い、このフォーマットでもっと作ってください。本当に役に立つんだ。😁😁😁
Incredible format! Thank you so much, your videos makes me motivated and happy to learn Japanese 😇 Could you do it for Persona 4 as well? I finally bought the 3-set persona (3,4,5) on Switch after watching your Switch Tier List video and maybe it would help me a lot to have a better experience if I could prepare myself with this kind of format!
I loved this format, but I think it would be better if you could cover more vocab, maybe more than one video on a game that has more tricky language, but really, thanks for this 😁
this is a great idea for a series! just curious, what do you use to analyze the text and see what the most common words are? I've done similar things with chatgpt but there are probably better ways.
Thank you for making these videos. Would it be at all possible for you to do a video on Liquid’s dialogue in the game not necessarily all of his dialogue but a few scenes would be great.
Have you ever thought of teaching English through video games for native Japanese speakers? Since you do it AMAZINGLY for teaching Japanese to English speakers, I was just curious if the thought occurred to you. めちゃめちゃお疲れ様でした、マット先生！
Haha yeah just a bit! Nah, I'm the one that made the only script out there (even the one on Jo's spreadsheet) haha made it a few years ago for the Metal Gear Solid Immersion video haha Sometimes you just gotta do it yourself when you can't find what you want! :P
I have a super important question, what does psychomantis stay, in japanese before he blinds you. In the english game I believe he just laughs. But its not clear in the japanese game what he says or is intending. HELP!?
Hey matt i like all what you do but now shall we put our learned vocabs and grammar to the test? Please play games in japanese to help with immersion and yes you dont need to translate line by line or something just a casual game to practice listening
This format is perfect since the focus of the channel is to teach Japanese. What you want is already done by other channels. Just type [game name] 実況 and you will get what you are looking for

発射 - はっしゃ = fire/launch
P.s: it can also be used as a する verb.
Examples: 発射ボタン(launch button); 発射する (to launch); ミサイル発射 (a missile launch).
核弾頭 - かくだんとう = nuclear warheads
かまわない = I don’t mind
基地 - きち = base (military).
Examples: 民間の基地 - みんかんのきち = civilian base; 空軍基地 - くうぐんきち= air force base; 海軍基地 - かいぐんきち- A naval base.
起爆 - きばく= detonation
地下- ちか= underground .
Examples: 地下室 - ちかしつ = A basement room; 地下鉄 - ちかてつ= underground train; 地下街 - ちかがい= an underground shopping street.
遺伝子 - いでんし= genes
Examples: 遺伝子治療 - いでんしちりよう = gene therapy;
助ける - たすける = to help; save; rescue.

撃つ = うつ = to shoot (a gun).
撃てるか！？= Can you shoot!?
新米 = rookie
止める- とめる= to stop/prevent
隠す-かくす= to hide/to conceal
If you want to just say “hide”, you use the intransitive 隠れる。
はずだ = it should be… (expectation).
You use it in the end of a sentence.
For polite version use はずです
とにかく= at any rate
んだ= explaining/giving orders
ところだ = express what is about to or is happening.
Used to express something happening right now = When the verb thats comes before is in the ている form, the progressive form. Ex: 勉強しているところだ.

Oh man, thank you for this!
Absolutely love this style of video! ESPECIALLY the Japanese subtitles, as I can now create flashcards using Migaku!
Thank you so much😭
Right now that format is 10 nouns 5 verbs and 3 grammar points. What is YOUR ideal combination? Happy to hear your suggestions

Cool format to complement the longer vocab series videos.
Really good idea, waitin' for more like this
Also, nice beard ;)
I love your channel. your information is well presented and understandable.
This is the game that motivated me to learn English. Now it can also be the game that pushed me to become fluent in Japanese!
Thanks!

how did you get that metal gear solid delta jacket omggggg
I purchased the Masters Collection specifically so I could experience the games in the original Japanese, this is very helpful for me
Hello, just curious but are you currently working on doing the video for all N2 grammar too?
I am yes! figuring out how to do it all atm
(Also, while I know the reasons why it happens I am amused a language channel even has the nuclear/nucular thing going on)
You are MAD MAN. Typing everything in? Surely there's a script or something somewhat. Maybe in the amazing Jo Mako spreadsheet?
Haha yeah just a bit! Nah, I'm the one that made the only script out there (even the one on Jo's spreadsheet) haha made it a few years ago for the Metal Gear Solid Immersion video haha
Sometimes you just gotta do it yourself when you can't find what you want! :P

I would absolutely LOVE it if you could do this with Skyrim please.
More of these!
