Today's most educational video: learn Kanji and sweet dancing

by Kevin Kelly { Apr 12th 2007 at 12:01AM }

There's a few DS applications out there that'll teach you Kanji ... but do any of them teach you how to dance the robot as well?

Check out the commercial for Tadashii Kanji and see what you've been missing. A new alphabet and some sweet dance moves ... where can you go wrong?

Yea, weird alright-did somebody splice in a couple of frames from the Patterson Bluff Creek bigfoot film? Yoiks!

my god, I'm glad I'm not subjected to Japanese advertising very often. it's like they're about a step away from yelling at you with a megaphone at gunpoint.

I'd take that over the good old american "You're an idiot so buy our product" approach

@Kevin Kelly, that second article you link to about the DS homebrew app doesn't teach you kanji. It teaches you kana, like hiragana and katakana. Those are the first baby step into Japanese. Kanji is the final step that makes most would-be Japanese students commit suicide.
