    じゃあ、皆は英語で書いているから私は日本語で書こうと思っております。日本語は難しすぎる。私はもう３年日本語を勉強しているですけれども、おじさんの日本語はまだぜんぜん分かりませんからあきらめたほうがいいと思います。その上に、私の日本人の彼女は私にいつも怒ります。

    I guessed all of …
    I guessed all of the words before they first showed the answer. :D Except for foot. Because the legs where right before, I was looking for a word with different pronunciation. It confused me. @_@

    Only crit I have for this video is may be preferable to have romaji of each word. Unless you expect most of the people watching this can already read hiragana.

    Though maybe a little delay between showing kanji/hiragana and romaji, so people can still practice reading hiragana if they want to…

    I love the fact that they have pictures with good looking people in this one – makes it easier to remember ^^;;

    the upper symbols …
    the upper symbols are hiragana or katakana, and you should learn these first because is very easy, and the lower symbols is kanji, witch is used to describe a whole word, a feeling, a thought, a idea, a object etc

    Are the two …
    Are the two different symbols for each part the on and kun ways? And should I learn both at once? Is one more important to learn than the other? And how are they used differently?
    Sorry for all the questions. :P and thanks for all the great videos! :)

    There is also …
    There is also another symbol for arm 捥 that’s kind of starting to be used again. This videos really neat. I wish it could be longer. It would be neat if we kind of all made a new game to remember Japanese. I’m sure it’d get a lot of people into Japanese. Go Japan!

    I didn’t know there were different kanji for “ashi” depending on which part of the leg.
