Lately, I've been really into discussing Japanese on my blog and with others on theirs. There's really a ton out there, if you don't know already. Great resources to discuss and wrap your mind around some of the more complex grammar as well as everyday situations we encounter living in Japan. What blogs/sites do you regularly visit?

I really like:

The Daily Yoji
The Legendary Tae Kim's blog
and my own, 男らしい, which just underwent a long overdue renovation. Please check them out and most importantly comment!

Do we really have to say "Google it"? AV ブログ, this seems to bring up some AV blogs. Not sure if they're of the quality saizen was mentioning. Pretty sure they're NFWS.

I very nearly started stoning you myself. "Not gonna give links"? That's just mean.

Because we use the internet for learning kanji and Japanese.  We are challenging the fundamental theory that the is internet is for porn.

You guys are learning from something other than H-manga?

It's a good source, as you're likely to encounter it with some frequency and it provides excellent opportunities for sentence mining.

The downside is, it gets awkward to share your collection with anyone else. "Hey, in this one sentence, what does 貪る mean?"

So like, has every asian model now had blepharoplasty on their upper eyelids? Many of them seem to have way overdone it, and it just starts to look freaky.
