I see, it would be best for you to ask a Japanese. But let me warn you if you only spoke english through your life, I would not recommend going to Japan and try to speak their language. But if you can get the Japanese accent, go ahead and go. Wait you are trying to write Japanese aren't you? Well its call calligraphy you better learn it fast.

Not all Japanese writing is necessarily calligraphy.

welll yeah...theres romaji (sp?) which is just normal text...

i can do the katakana and hirigana...just gotta memorize them, and then learn the language. but yeah...Japanese is supposed to be pretty hard.

Screw you all, I'd give my left ball just to be able to say "Dreamcast owns your soul" in Japanese.
