RepeKanji on the Nipponster Japan Toolbar

We just added something new to the Japan toolbar

It is pretty cool.

Videos teaching 50 kanji each, so you can study 50 kanji a week.

It's ...















For those who already have the Nipponster Japan Toolbar <--(link to post with demo), you can find these videos on your toolbar by going to "Japan Links" --> "Learning Kanji and Kana" --> "Repe Kanji"












If you haven't downloaded the Nipponster Japan Toolbar yet you can Download it now

The Nipponster Japan Toolbar (w/ Free Japanese TV!)


It is the first and (hopefully always will be) best toolbar of Japan-Enthusiasm! It is the Japan-Enthusiast's toolbar.
And we are constantly looking for ways to improve it for you, because... we want to make the web a better place for all you Japan-Enthusiasts

We love you guys,

"Loose Change"日本語版 the 9/11 expose, in Japanese



*After some debate we have posted the above video and gone ahead with this article. We debated because Nipponster.com strives to remain neutral and this video is very political and controversial. In the end, (although we refrain from an opinion) the questions it raises and its translation into Japanese have landed it here.

I first heard about " Loose Change" (English Version) from James. He introduced me to it and The Great Conspiracy, a Canadian documentary. After watching them I wondered if people in other countries have heard these video so I searched Nipponster.

The video speaks for itself. So I'll shut up :)

Helping Foreigners in Japan

One of the most important goals of Nipponster.com is to help foreigners in Japan (and people interested in visiting, studying, or living in Japan in the future).

I know from personal experience that adjusting to life in Japan is very difficult at the beginning (even regardless of speaking ability). Some have lived in Japan for years and still find it difficult (If you don't understand that you probably haven't lived there long enough yet :)

We hope to make things easier for would-be and current "gaijin" and any feedback and ideas about how we can do that better are extremely appreciated (contact us)

I found this video about getting around in Japan (below). It's a little cheesy (in a cute way) at points but I think it's very good and this kind of video theme could be very useful for foreigners.
