I've been trying to learn Japanese myself as well, Nanashi, so I hope I can give you some tips and ideas on where to start or pick it up again. For kanji, I use James Heisig's Remember the Kanji (it was posted earlier in one of the links on the first page). Keep in mind that the Heisig approach is different from learning Kanji from the norm. You learn bits and pieces of a kanji (some of them can be radicals too) that he considers "primitives" and gives you an appropriate meaning for each in the form of a story. You then later form your own stories too. Kanji can also be considered primitives when its in a compound as well.

I recommend at least giving it a shot and see how you like it. It's effective in learning the meaning, you won't learn any kun-yomi/on-yomi at all (the readings). However, I personally learn about the kanjis in a word rather than the reading because some kanji have way too many readings, and the rules which reading you use, etc. can be tricky ( like た can become だ in some compounds, け can become げ, etc.)

(ex: 友達「ともだち」) tomodachi

友－とも tomo
達－たち tachi

I find myself using this site along with the Heisig approach + rikaichan. It has a pretty good flashcard system, but you can use Anki, which is also a flashcard SRS that can be the same. You can also download decks people made about studying hiragana, katakana, kanji, and vocabulary as well as grammar rules.

For grammar, I use this site. It's probably the best thing I found because you will also learn how casual Japanese is used as well as formal, which textbooks don't really do much when it comes to casual.

And if you want to learn a bit of vocabulary as well as a few kanji, this website can be pretty neat. It also gauges your progress and has a "leveling" system to it too.

Honestly though, it all boils down on how you want to study. I'm just posting some of the tools I am using.

Ah, I found the problem. All I had to do was replaced one of the sound plugins, since my other one didn't seem to work as well.

Nevertheless, you did a great job making your stages so far, Master Yoda.

I don't know if I'm the only person that experienced this so far, but whenever I try to set up a BGM for this stage, it doesn't work. I've tried this with two of Yoda's stages in particular so far, one being Corridor while the other was the Samsho 6 Snow in Japan stage.

This problem only occurs with only Master Yoda's stages for me.

Just a video showing what Tengu mentioned earlier. I also think that the Chakra build up is too fast. With Chidori Nagashi, and the fast chakra buildup, along with the enemy being immobilized for a long time, it's pretty much an easy infinite against whoever you go against.

This Sasuke is comedy, and to tell you the truth, I wasn't expecting something like this to be released at all.

Anyway, Sasuke's sounds seem to be desynched right when he does the Chidori super. You can pretty much hear it several seconds later after the animation sequence ends.

I also think Chidori Nagashi's hitstun time should be reduced. It's just awkward getting jumping opponents with it, because they'll just stay immobilized in place for quite a long time. Maybe just imitate Blanka's shock attack instead?

His jumping back animation seems weird as well. The animation doesn't look very consistent to the rest of Sasuke's animations. It's just odd seeing this Sasuke double the size of his height during the jump back animation.

In addition to that, he doesn't have any running sounds, but since this creation is a beta, I'm sure sounds will be implemented in a later update hopefully.

That's all I got for now. Nice release. I hope you'll update this character in the near future.

Found a bug. After doing Round Trip, if you perform Rapid Slash, Vergil will walk back and perform it rather than doing his signature animation.
