Moetan - Image 2Here is a fun way for a Japanese to learn the English language: the Moetan way! In a brief, concise but promising sentence: The Moetan way means learning English with "moe" (cute) girls - Tukishima Moe, Kyoka Kaori, Emily, and so much more. Well, if that isn't fun enough for you, I don't know what is.

For those not familiar with it, Moetan originally appeared as a book. After a while, a PC version was made. To those of you wondering if it will get to PSP, wonder no more. Moetan's official website mentions that a PSP version is in the works. You can watch the Moetan streaming video to check out how the title will look like.

No other details were added about the difference between the PSP version and the PC version or even the original book itself. But again, learning English with moe girls...isn't that fun enough for you?

 » They're pretty funny

The english taught in the Moe-tan books is pretty funny tho. Stuff like "Beating up slimes is the path of a young boy who wants to one day be a hero."
Basically, the first book's english lessons are absolutely useless to "normal" people. Only gamers would ever use them.

Which IMO is absolutely awesome.

@18:indeed...

Anyway, just to get you a glimpse of "English" taught - Sentences on first two pages of Volume 1 (choosing the best ones would be too cheap, get it on amazon):

lunatic: They say the lunatic people edit the English word book.

admire: Admiring the trivia greatly, the man with sunglasses pressed the button again and again

create: It is not fair for what he creates to be treated as contemporary art.

abroad: I have not traveled abroad yet.

expensive: Dahhhhhhh! Don't launch lots of expensive missiles too quickly.

purpose: I met my brother after all this time. He had forgotten his purpose to destroy the earth.

compound: The monstrosity was compounded of machinery, animal and plant. Any person would know the component by its name.

And I love how you can reverse the book jacket to have it read in boring 18th century academic-style print "Methodology of English, The Academic Necessity"

You guys are freaking sick

It says a little girl will teach you English (I think that's suposed to be English)

You people turned it into a sexual thing all by yourselves...

And despite that, children will might want to learn english too. You're all *****ing geeks with no sexual live that only think about sex.
