until today, i had no idea how much i needed a dabbing misa in my life

This😂

[@moondzn2142]

This tbh LOL

We are in 2023 ...

[@PersonManManManMan]

Where in a video one can see this?

[@liquidradis]

The most fun way of learning japanese. Thanks!

[@cmdrTremyss]

Dabbing Misa tumbnail, omg! :D Teaching us how to be toxic in japanese too. 5:00 It's interesting, in hungarian we also use "zakó", in context of being badly defeated. zakó originally means jacket or suit, and the term refers to someone falling, and hitting the ground badly (probably his jacket hitting the ground)

[@kavitaupadhyay3305]

Thank you so much for helping us with your informative videos. You make our journey of learning language so easy. I highly appreciate your efforts 🙂.

[@Nothルッキー]

The amount of effort that you put on these videos is remarkable, thx for making this journey of learning Japanese fun and informative.

[@jakematterson8652]

You truly have no idea how much I value the effort you put into your videos. I mean this from the bottom of my heart. You do such a good job that words can't describe.

[@leetmeatz]

Hi Misa! Thanks for another informative and entertaining video. Over the past few years I have gone through two small notebooks and filled them with over three hundred total pages of your lessons and examples. I just want to give you the biggest internet hug for making learning to read and write Japanese doable for someone like me. There are other textbooks I use but your notes are always my go to reference when I'm stuck on something! みささん最高ーー！

[@DavisCrimsonGaming]

ナイスgaming syllabus！ just knew about 楽勝 today~ムヘヘへ ありがとうございます～みささん

Even the word noob sounds like a cute compliment from you. So lovely

Even if you find yourself being 雑魚 in some specific game, you still can have the consolation of knowing you're our ラスボス in Japanese learning

[@randycouch9571]

You never fail to give us content that's not found elsewhere and you are always engaging. Keep up the good work Misa-san!

[@GGs-c1u]

I love how you add your own color-coded subs and even add furigana! It's very helpful!

[@LocrianDorian]

Brilliant lesson, thank you! I've been learning Japanese for years, but it's quite hard to come by slang outside of Japan, so this is very useful.

[@yasmeenabdelkhader9178]

I can’t explain how grateful I am to you in teaching me how to impress Japanese gamers. Tysm 感謝します🫂

[@Infinicat]

Misa you're such a wonderful teacher! Thank you for all of your hard work. I appreciate you! I've learned so much watching your videos and the more Japanese material I consume the more I start to pick up on subtle differences like -suru and -shita at the end of verbs. Also, gaming content is right up my alley I love video games - fps, rpg, strategy, survival, etc I love gaming! As always I hope you're having a beautiful week and I'm sending love and hugs your way :D

[@CyberYuzuPyon]

This video is going to be very very useful, thank you so much Misa! It's not the type of Japanese you can learn in school even though you really need this type of knowledge in real life situations.

[@benjaminbaer5485]

… gamer slang isn’t really for RL. xD

[@klausval]

@@benjaminbaer5485 i think they just mean actually talking to japanese people in day-to-day life lmaoo :')

[@BayleyBengal]

Always interesting to learn more gaming words! Thank you!

[@Nao-fb6qr]

As I used to be a fps gamer, I'd also add: 養分 カモる/カモ 〇〇ニキ 芋/芋砂/芋掘り ヘッショ 囲い 垢　(別垢/本垢) it was interesting the way she used 鯖缶 here was completely different from the way we were using it, it meant "the admin(s) of the server (short for "サーバー管理者")" at least among us.

I'm looking for a decent game that has a Japanese server where people actually talk/type. もしかしたらおススメ教えてくれて

[@zamooti4505]

Holy, this is some helpful info! You know how people recommend to study a language by doing what you like but in the new language? Well, gaming is my interest and it’s been kinda difficult to understand some of this slang because it’s not like properly documented (of course! That’s what slang is), especially in dictionaries it’s remarkably absent. So thank you thank you! This will be very useful

[@thearchlich7273]

Blaming lag on a board game is probably the funiest thing I've heard all day :D

I rolled bad because the lag.

thank you for this :) gamer slang is so important and necessary to learn more about modern day japanese culture so i appreciate it

I've been looking for definitions of many of these words but could not find them! This is a treasure! ありがとう！！！

we use 安地(anchi) in Apex Legends. It refers to the safezone, (安全; safety) > 安 + 地(ground/earth), combine = 安地, anchi

awesome video Misa! thank you for your hard work. very informative and fun video!! well done. and so cute as usual.

[@treymtz]

Very cool! Whats the Japanese phrase or word for the verb "buff", like making someone else stronger like a support character in a JRPG?

[@noyaV_]

I'vs also seen around a shorter version of NF/ナイスファイト as ないふぁい (in hiragana more often than not, surprisingly).

This was such a fun lesson, I loved it.

[@IroAoYaMaDa]

I must say 楽勝だった！ Definitely looking forward for some more gaming slang in Japanese since I might start speaking Japanese in CS GO if someone can't stop speaking Russian to me. And when they suddenly ask "Talkink English plis" the common answer I say is 英語とロシア語わからない to show yellow card for my English. I kinda wonder though, if there's any videos related to Japanese CS GO callouts. Since in English we say Mid, Connector, T/CT-Spawn/Base, Heaven, Banana etc. are they same in Japanese like: ミッド/中、コネクター、バナナ、Ｔ/ＣＴベース and so on. I know that CS GO ain't THAT popular in Japan but I would love to know about Japanese CS GO gaming. Keep it up Misa-san! ^v^

[@Mogthrasir1989]

Is there a slang word for 'tryhard' or 'sweatlord'? Asking for a friend who plays Modern Warfare 😏 I found 後追い (maybe with 人 ?) Or まねっこ ("wannabe"?) And for those folks who *absolutely must* wear a riot shield on their back - possibly 亀の子 (?) Again, asking for a friend.

[@VexNToys]

I was just in Tokyo playing Splatoon 3. So funny, you see it everywhere in Japan. You’d almost think it’s the only game they have there.

[@taepyeoon8245]

Thank you sensei

[@DanSetiBello]

Hiii, Misa! I love your videos and I am actually learning Japanese from your videos. I love the editing, how there is always hiragana when a word is shown using kanji, how it highlights the hiragana/katakana and how you repeat it slower and regular speed so we can practice with you. You are really amazing at creating content and I really appreciate you take your personal time to share your knowledge with us, viewers. Thank you so much! I would like to add a request, if possible of course. Could you talk about and explain the lyrics of "Ado - Usseewa"? I've heard when the song was released it was very controversial and that 'Usseewa' is a variation of 'urusai' but it is very rude, like saying "shut the hell up" and sounds angry. Also, I've read the lyrics are criticizing the Japanese lifestyle and the song was frowned upon by elder people but embraced by youngsters. I am very curious about the lyrics and if they do have such meaning and have such depth about Japanese culture and society. You have a very enticing personality and a great way of explaining things. No matter how hard the concept is, somehow, you manage to get it through my thick skull. Thank you again for the amazing content! I learned A LOT from you - not only about the Japanese language but also about Japanese culture and way of thinking and behaving. Sasuga Misa!!

[@Miromiro_Japan]

Amazing ❤

[@ImpatientAndy]

24:30 Lol! Thanks again for the fun lesson. I think I'll stick to the second half of the video but I suppose the first half is helpful too (since I'm not very good at games...). Also, the katsudon>donkatsu play on words is super neat.

[@SapTheSaltQueen]

I wasn't able to watch the stream on time TT but this video ended up very useful! My favourite game is #コンパス and I've heard some of my friends say these phrases w

[@TheVernonENT]

Yea Misa, you are so not kidding, even Sports people love saying　ナイス　ナイス！ I remember the Olympic Japanese women's curling team loved saying that. The Japanese women team won silver in curling. They said it so much that it just sounded horribly corny. And actually they were the only team at the Olympics that were gloating so much by saying "ナイスナイス!!" for every single time they did something small. It wasn't humbling at all especially for the Olympics. Gaming is whatever but the Olympics come on now.🙄😂 Ps. Wonderful Japanese lesson as always!

[@fochofidaho5149]

How would you say "That combo did big damage!" like in a fighting game?

[@mx.notyourbusiness8693]

I really like japanese as a language and i'm learning it since a while but what i really dislike is the ubiquitous presence of english in it. Sometimes it feels like re-learning english, just with a very strong accent. Not blaming japanese people for it, of course...
