I don’t know if anyone here plays Starcraft II at all , but I’ve been attempting to integrate Japanese into as many of my hobbies as possible. I love watching Pro streams and VODs, so I was really happy to find a you tube channel with someone commentating matches in Japanese. Not sure if anyone’s going to find this as interesting as me but i thought I’d share; link is above.

(Ive seen him on teamliquid and screddit). Hes actually not a Japanese native so hes not as good as talking as I’d like, but hes still improving.

If you really want to follow Japanese stuff. http://starcraft2.jpcommunity.com/sc2/ is great and Ive picked up a lot of words from Japanese fans. I’m currently building a deck of Starcraft related vocab. Heres some examples

論評する – to commentate
選手 – player
観戦 – watching a sport (starcraft)
拡張 – expansion
失格 – disqualify (DQ!)
反撃 – counter attack
不利 – disadvantage
全滅 – total annihilation
青い炎ドロップ – Blue flame drop
勿体ない – IMBA IMBA IMBA (among other things)

Terran OP! Protoss Imba! :P

@Sheepy Yeah I saw it on TL and on /r/starcraft a few days ago. I noticed his voice was a little off, figured he probably wasn’t native; still good stuff though.

Awesome link man, thanks, I’ll look into it. Oh and if you ever finish that deck you should submit it somewhere, i’d love to have a copy!

Isn’t there not any actual Japanese client? :?

In any case, thanks for sharing this! I watch too much SC2 for my own good, and this guy’s channel is a godsend.

Well, I’ve never been much of an rts fan but I have found a few commentator’s in Japanese with Minecraft series videos.

This guy’s PC talks to him with a chick voice so it kind of creeps me out. http://www.youtube.com/user/1119hayabusa

I can’t tell if this guy is actually Japanese but his videos are interesting. http://www.youtube.com/user/nagomi357

They type what they want to say and it says it. It would be weird if he was talking to his PC.
