Edit (1/23/24):
At this point in time, the showcase of some of the tools in this video are out-of-date. Most importantly, JP Mining Note hasn't been maintained by Aquafina in quite some time. Please use Arbyste's fork instead, as it fixes many of the bugs that have been introduced over time on the original. I have updated the link in the description, but you may also find it here: arbyste.github.io/jp-mining-note/
Second, while asbplayer setup still generally remains the same, you no longer need to install it as an unpacked extension as it is now available on the Chrome Web Store. If there are any other important changes, please let me know in either TMW or Refold server, my discord is the same as my RUclips name. Thank you!
Original comment:
If you’re having issues with asbplayer or jp mining note, please join the Refold JP server. The creators of both are in the server, active, and very friendly. It’s easier to troubleshoot stuff on discord than on here, so please join if you need help! Thank you!
could you give me the link? great video btw I just need to solve a problem with asb player not picking up on the youtube subtitles. It was working yesterday tho T-T
Hey thank you! I have come back to this video multiple times to re-setup my mining settings after hard resetting my pc or just not using it for a long period of time. The updates are greatly appreciated!
Found out a couple of weeks ago that i'll be spending a year in Japan, starting this September. So you and this series popping up is a great help and encouragement. Also good job on the editing, and thanks for recommening themoeway. That site is a great source on learning 'digitally', that i always knew i needed, but didn't know existed, and never would have found otherwise.
Dang how’d you get that sweet opportunity?
@@bobbywhite5319 Via my university.
Tldr: If you're a student currently or in the future, your university / college might run a exchange programme, or there might be other such opportunities offered elsewhere. The main thing is finding these opportunities, and having a go at them. You might very well get lucky.
My uni runs a programme called 'Global Exchange' in cooperation with its foreign partnering universities, that aren't included in other programmes like Erasmus for intra-european exchanges. Basically they agree on a certain number of students to be recommended by my home university to the foreign one. They get to study at the university in question, and have their tuition waived.
So for instance, there are seven japanese universities that my uni has partnership agreements with. Afaik the usual 'allotment' for these is 24 months for two people (so a year each). This means that my uni sends around a dozen students per semester to Japan. I'm pretty sure that for universities in all other countries it's usually 6 months (1 semester) per person.
So i first applied for the programme at my home university. They accept my application (this was my second attempt), and offered me a slot at a specific university (you're able to list three universities in your application). I in turn accepted the offer, and then applied at the uni in question with paperwork that was sent to the person that's responsible for the programme at my uni. Of course you can always try to 'independently' apply at foreign universities. The programme's advantage is that the tuition is waived, and the actual application is easier, since my uni more or less vouches for my suitability, and facilitates the actual application process.
! This is important for anyone interested in doing something similar:
I'm writing all this to encourage others to do their best at 'fulfilling their dreams' or whatever you want to call it. I'm not a genius by any means, i'm a pretty run-of-the-mill, low-effort student actually. During the pandemic i just realized that sometimes, you have to force your own luck. I've played with the thought of 'going to Japan' in some fashion for a while. So when i cought wind of that programme, i just 'took the chance' (there's no risk involved in the first place). And when i didn't get accepted, i tried again. I do think i'm extremly lucky, and i'm anxious, excited, a bit scared and everything in between. In some way i tried to convince myself that i don't deserve this, i tend to not value myself very highly. But some friends i made at uni convinced me that i deserve this as much as anyone, and so does anyone else that might read this. I guess this is why i ended up writing this instead of an assignment thats due next week. The pandemic hit me in my stomach right when i was starting to see some 'personal improvement'. But i picked myself up, and i now lunge at every opportunity i get, including this one. So, i want you all to do the same. It pays off. I wish you the very best.
what are you going there for if you dont mind me asking ?

Ayo, it was a bloody headache trying to set everything up...literally took me days trying, deleting, trying again...but it works now FINALLY. THANK YOU
HOLY CHEERS MATE I finally got the automated sentence mining properly working and DAYUM it has everything I wanted!! Now mining sentences is way better and FASTER since I'll get the pitch accent and audio automatically! Ty a lot!
Guys this automated mining may be hard to settle at first but be patient and carry on, you'll be mining sentences for years while studying japanese so this will really come in handy!
ive been trying to learn japanese for so long, but its been really hard to be disciplined and consistent with my learning :(
however, your vids are motivating me to try again and im gonna try to learn/memorize all the kana within the next few days :)
thanks for uploading these vids! they're very motivational! ( i noticed your pfp and i also love bloom into you lol)
Most people think it is the language that is frustrating when in reality most of the time it is your methods that is frustrating, My native Language is Arabic and I've learned 3 languages in addition to my native (yes I studied my native, because it is difficult and it has many versions and dialects) also English, Spanish, and Japanese. And I can tell you that I REALLY enjoyed the process of every language and the reason for this is I tried my best to first build a learning habit daily (most people are excited in the beginning they spend hours until they burnout, where I think in the beginning you should only focus on building a habit of daily learning even if it is 20 minutes until you feel comfortable, after that you can increase it, me personally now I spend 4-5 hours learning while in the beginning it was 1 hour daily just to fit it in my daily life) another thing is the obsession with basics many people get stuck in this level (You do not have to master basics even with kana learn it once and move on while listening and reading eventually it will be something that you do not think about, I hate it when people keep writing the same letter 20 times thinking it is helping them) and the most important piece of advice is please ENJOY that's it, do not look for the perfect method and analyzing every technique, just enjoy man and think about the amazing content you will consume when you develop a good understanding of the language :)
@@its.nakamura يضحك لما قلت انك درست العربي على طول عرفت انه كان اصعب من اللغات الثلاث الثانية
Ahhhh you just gave me an idea, on how to figure out a problem I was having with immersion! Thank you so much, I’m so motivated to learn I can’t sleep.
I WILL SENTENCE MINE TOMORROW
Thanks for this. I'm glad I stumbled into your immersion video. Sentence mining is something I never knew I want and need!
This is absolutely amazing. I'm about to start learning Japanese again from a 1 year break and I remember how hard it was to set the Anki cards up back then to the point that I just gave up and made the cards manually. This video def makes things a lot easier
Thank you for sharing us your mining process! I've been mia from learning Japanese for a long time because I was burnout from doing Anki (it was my mistake for doing too many cards a day) and now gradually I'm getting back to it by watching JP subbed anime and tackling my old reviewed cards, thanks to your video for motivating me to give Anki a try again! ^^
I literally just finished reading blooming into you, now I'm getting back to learning vocab. finding this channel feels like it meant to be. thankyou
This tutorial is amazing! I’ve been so overwhelmed by all the different tools out there for sentence mining but this solution works for plain text, manga, and videos in a single deck! Thank you so much for making this!
You make really nice content and your editing is great! It really brings me back to when I was around 6 months in. Keep going and best wishes in your journey.
This video is absolutely INSANE thank you so much. So satisfying to just click a shortcut and bam its created.
can't believe I found a youtuber I now enjoy watching just through seeing your pfp on one of your comments through another video lol. Keep up the good content.
This seems like a great method. Lately i've really fallen in love with making cards from doing screenshots of new words i come across in manga (going through Yotsuba right now) and i've found all the illustrated context makes it WAY easier to remember new words.
Your videos are so aesthetically pleasing
Pretty neat video especially for beginners cuz you linked some great resources. I used the Animecards template even though I wasn't that big of a fan but the template you recommend is much cleaner and basically the same in practice. Also love the editing, feels very smooth!
oh i found your channel from yt recommendation when i got the urge of giving up to learn bcs kanjii is sooo hard, turn out it was my expectation who still doesn't meet the right action and efficient step to learn the kanji so-- thank you so much dude! your content helping me a lot
I'm so glad RUclips recently recommended your videos to me, I just got Yomichan and ASBplayer set up for the first time earlier today, and collected ~40 different flashcards from my first episode of non-english subbed anime! Studied for ~30 minutes too, let's see if I can keep the routine up! (Although I won't stay at this rate for very long lol)
Ok this video is peak you got a new sub, I'll definetely tey this new sentence mining method this tuesday! I'm pissed that my traditional one takes too long, cheers mate!
Nice, this looks clean and fancy. Honestly tempted to start using jp mining card although I know I end up just ignoring the photos/extra audio.
I’m pretty used to just basics, but the automation is tempting
I really love your video styles! I really wish to make videos like this. I like the Koito Yuu theme too
Gratz on 1k subs
Thank you so much! This video helped me get a free easy setup going without too much trouble. You're doing god's work, lad.
This is so useful. I love you man
Good vid like always
I indeed have liked the video and subscribed
This is so clutch!
Noticed the Touhou sound effects lol, nice touch!
sheesh, another bloom into you enjoyer, i made an edit of that show a good while ago
game changer. thank you!
Thanks a lot, it works for me!
thank you, I spent 24 hours learning how to install this entire monstrosity
Do you know how to make the card show definitions, I installed everything but it only shows the sentence, photo, and audio for some reason.
Thank you so much!!
Man this is all great stuff, but i'm dumb as hell to the point that i don't understand any of the programming shinanigans and i can't even get asbplayer to work, even tho i'll keep trying my best, thanks for the vid bro, it's great!
i hope you know the pain i felt when your video ended. i thought my soul had been taken away
ill try it
very useful.
Thank you!
Thank you :D
hi, this was a really good video! seeing how well you explain this, could you maybe do a video on your own anki settings? ive been using wanikani for my srs so i havent had to force myself to figure out anki yet, but anytime ive tried to experiment with it ends in disaster. i never know what settings to use, and all sorts of videos i watch say different things and dont express what the settings actually do. a big ask, but would love to see! keep carrying on making videos, because youre going places!
Matt vs Japan has a pretty good video explaining how the Anki SRS works, if you want to check it out! It may be slightly out of date, but the ideas for how the buttons/settings work should still apply.
@@cpf1133 thank you! ill have to check it out!
cracked video :o
I found your channel a couple of months ago, and I instantly fell in love, I do have only one question (i'm trying this new sentence mining method here) but I've got a problem and Im not understanding how to fix it, everytime I wanna adjust the timeframe of the dialogue using ctrl+shift+x it says that " No overlay has been found on this website ", dunno what's the problem :/
Also as always nice video!
thanks
Good vidoes
This is so cool! Did anyone try this and knows what to do if anki doesn't show the pictures in the card?
what do you use to make videos that cool? after effects?
Can you show in the next video how you edit? This editing looks super clean
thanks! tbh i dont really know what points id wanna touch for a video like that so i probably wont make one, but if it helps i got most of my experience from editing amv's back in the day and i guess mimicking the editing style of youtubers i like. id recommend just trying to make something and trying to replicate editing techniques u see that u like
Hello, i find your videos really helpful. Maybe you could share your anki decks ?
Hi Miku-san. Thank you for your video !!
But I encountered a problem where it says "9 errors occured: Template render error for {jpmn-primary-definition} ... etc." when I press 'Add expression' on words I hover.
I don't know where i went wrong in setting up everything. :(
yay
Hey man! Your videos are seriously amazing.
Have you thought about making your own Discord server? Or do you already have one maybe? I
i always look at sentence mining to be eh
and what i mean by sentence mining is the act of having a card being made with "highquality" cards that is explained by themoeway
i did my fair share of anki and quite frankly i never want to do it again. then how do you memorize it how you may ask?
thank god immersion kit exist. second, i rather understand the sentence than having the words prememoriezed, if you have a word pre memorized but don't really understand the complicated sentence in which the main character is explaining a plot point then it doesn't really matter.
and plus i find that you dont have to know each and every word, there are a bunch of time where i was immersing which i can intuitively understand what the character is feeling or what they say based on their expression, and context.
and this is something that im sure matt talks about, put specifically by knowing a certain context, and situation, your almost guaranteed to know the options characters word of choice characters may use and use that to understand. and if you watched the show before, you will already have known or understand what the character will have to say.
in this day and age it's so easy have an external memory that you dont really have to memorize, you have chatgpt where you can tell it to give you examples, explain it, or use certain situations, you have yomichan. but dont confuse memorizing with internalizing. internalizing can happen without necessarily memorizing. i believe this is one of the core concept of immersion to begin with
as you immerse, sometimes a word pops out at you, and you notice is until it no longer flies by your head, you will catch it every time.
then i believe you can catch up and do anki cards, at this point you can hear the sentence and know what the sentence is about but not necessarily the word but you know like a couple of words cause you catch it often then when you look up the definition, or try to memorize it, it sticks really easily. you are like OHHH that's what i means, ive come across this word so many times not i 100% get it.
disclaimer ive done jo mako prebuilt decks and have done core decks, so no doubt i have already have core knowledge, though i didnt fully commit anyways but the situations i've mentioned are real and does not play a small part in my learning, i am also learning Japanese at the casual to the max, and i procrastinate a lot but i hope that this can help you guys learn Japanese much better
Hey! Thanks a lot for this video. It was extremely helpful and is going to make a big difference for all Japanese learners. Still I really want to know something I just can't figure out. On your flashcards the back shows just the translation along with the type of word. on mine however there's always this 1v5uvtmaleJMdict Extra. along with 6 or more other definitions and more example sentences. How do I change that? does it depend on the dictionary ?
Yes it basically just rips them from the dictionary. The jmdict version I use is from here github.com/Aquafina-water-bottle/jmdict-english-yomichan
@@mikuminou Thank you so much! you're really helping a lot of people! Keep it up ;)
Can you explain in more detail how to create a sentence card instead of a vocab card? Thank you!
for some reason the subtitles aren't visible in the image asbplayer takes. But they're visible for me during watching
Edit: for anyone having the same issue. I found that asbplayer had the option for "clean screenshot on by default" if you don't want that click on the addon icon in the top right of your browser, itll open a menu where you'll find the clean screenshot option. Uncheck that and you're good. Now if anyone knows why my anki doesn't play audio within my decks, despite the audio files working when played via media player f, that'd be a big help. Cause I'm having that issue as well.
Commenting for yt algorithm :)
can you get audio cards(listening) using this method?
Great video. I got mine all set up except for one little thing. I'm doing sentence cards instead of vocab cards, and I don't know how to get the word I'm learning to be highlighted on the front of the card. It's highlighted on the back of the card just like in the vocab cards but not on the front. Do you know how to change that?
Are you marking isSentenceCard or isTargetedSentenceCard? Targeted Sentence Cards are what you want for highlighted words
@@mikuminou That was indeed the problem. Thanks!
I have a problem when i create card, on asbplayer i have to do ctrl shift u or v several time before it's updating on anki, it's take time or it's a bug ?
love ur vids!! quick question, does this method in any way shape or form track what words you've already made into cards, or is there a method of doing that? i'm using migaku right now and i'm wondering if making the switch is worth it
yes, if you already have a card made from a word then itll show a different icon, indicating that the word exists in ur deck
@@mikuminou have you had any experience using the card format on mobile?
@@kanzouu yeah i use ankidroid and they show up fine. i have no experience with anki for ios but my friend who uses the same note type as me doesnt have any problems
@@mikuminou thanks so much! i'll try setting it up today
@@kanzouu Hey, creator of jp-mining-note here. The current stance on mobile usage is that it's not "officially supported", meaning that although it should work, I wouldn't recommend it yet unless you really want to review on mobile. There are a good number of things that I'm not personally happy with, such as the layout, lack of certain features (primarily kanji hover and word indicators), and some performance issues, all adding up to a potentially sub-par experience. However, as of typing this, a massive backend update is currently in the works, and pretty much all of that is either solved or has a solution in the works. Whenever I get the next update out, I'll make sure to comment here again to let y'all know!
Hey, maybe you know how to solve. There is a problem with asbplayer I guess, when I watch a video in it, it works okay, yet when I add subtitles, it works also fine, but after some time after each subtitles lines will change, I always see a little bit changing of gamma in a video, like the whole video becomes a bit brighter or the opposite, like a little bit of flashlight when each subtitles line changes, it is not good and I guess it is not alright, do you know how to solve it?
4:38 When selecting audio for some subtitle I've noticed it doesn't get all the audio, how do I adjust the timeframe exactly to what I needed? That selection bar isn't useful because I cannot playback the audio to make sure I got what I need.
question not related to the topic, where do you get the pics and vids from for your content? I mean like the pics here 0:55 and anime vids
The pic at the timestamp is from irasutoya and the anime clips I just rip straight from what I have saved on my hard drive
Thank you so much for the resources. I got majority of it working but my only issue was when trying to get a word from a youtube video everything but the audio and picture show up. Not sure if this is an issue with it being a streamed video and not directly downloaded. Would appreciate any help.
You're using the asbplayer extension on the youtube page? Are you using the asbplayer subs by pressing Ctrl+shift+f and selecting the subtitle track? When you press Ctrl+shift+u it should replay the sentence you mined and say updated card at the top
@@mikuminou Yep I got it to work. I thought I needed to just save the card with Yomichan and the video would come automatically lol. Silly assumption on my part. Thank you so much for responding and providing me with this resources, my JP Immersion literally leveled up
Does this work with learning any language, not just Japanese? I know Yomichan is strictly for learning Japanese but do you know if similar applications for other languages work?
Are there applications or other resources that you use on your phone? I’ve got about everything that you use on my computer but there’s some stuff that gives different experiences on mobile.
i have yomichan installed on kiwi browser but i havent actually set it up yet lol, i dont mine on my phone i just watch and read stuff
How do you highlight key words in sentence cards like 5:46? Please help 🙏
I've reached a sort of intermediate-learners-plateau that I am struggling to overcome and feel this sort of streamlined process would help me now that I'm busy with work and school. It looks great!!! But i am technologically stupid and cannot for the life of me figure out how to set all this up properly. Navigating githubs and links and such is not my Forte and when an error happens I have no idea what to do. I'm struggling but I really want to figure out how to do this stuff :^(
i rly like jp mining note for its flexibility, but that flexibility does admittedly come at the cost of a more complicated setup, you can check the alternatives here (aquafina-water-bottle.github.io/jp-mining-note/alternatives/), the asbplayer setup should be the same as long as you can account for the different field names
@@mikuminou Thank you so much!!! after throwing my head at it enough I think I have it set up to a decent enough. it's sort of missing some features and keeps having weird annoying quirks sometimes but at least it's functional. You're so sweet for getting back to me though!!
I think I did everything right but installing the abs for streaming video makes no difference. Like, it doesn't create a screenshot in my anki card at all. It just adds the word I mined. Any thoughts on what I might be doing wrong?
do you know any asbplayer alternatives for firefox. i dont want to use different browser for sentence mining and recording audio manually is too tedious
does yomi chan still work?and where do I install it?
im having trouble since the subtitles aren't lined up with the actual video im playing when im using a streaming site without its own subtitles (crunchyroll). any way to fix this?
I've been doing this passively while watching anime and drama.
Hi bro, where can i find the subtitles for Seishun buta yarou and Bocchi the rock?🙏
Kitsunekko
just... how do you use yomichan on netflix ? (or other streaming video)
my subtitles seem to be embeded to the video and yomichan don't seem to detect the text where my cursor is :/
I view lot of video where those subtitles are usable with yomichan, but I only manage to use it on youtube...
Do you have the asbplayer extension installed? Are you pressing Ctrl+shift+f on the video to select the subs for asbplayer?
where can i donwload japanese subtitles to drag into the asbplayer? wanikani doesent even have death note sub
Hey there! I need some help.
I followed the video instructions, and I'm successfully mining japanese kanji! One issue though... It doesn't seem to be taking a screenshot, and the sound cuts off half-way (on the word "Nigasu", I only hear "su").
Any idea as to how to fix those two issues? The first one is far more critical for me.
Thanks!
thats censorship for ya!!
So you basically don't need anki to store all of your flash cards in this case, right?
can it be used to learn other languages like Thai?
When I am making a card the Katakana section is coming up as N/A. Does anyone know why this may be?
I tried installing refold method but i just ca nt get it to work
Great video! Is there a way to use refold for free?
Refold itself is just a method, you don't need to pay anything since it's just an approach to learning languages. The core of it is immersing, I recommend checking out the roadmap they have for more info: refold.la/simplified
when I change card types the target word loses the highlight effect, any way to solve this?
I got the card all set up, but even after changing the asbplayer settings just like you showed, my cards only play the audio of each word from yomichan, not the sentence audio like I wanted. It doesn't show the picture either, any help?
For troubleshooting, you can try joining the Refold JP server. The creator of asbplayer and the creator of jp mining note are both there and active, and it’ll be easier to get help there than here since RUclips comments are a bit limiting haha im kinda bad at checking comments
@@mikuminou Thank you, I found the discord
You probably haven't installed the asbplayer extension. it's required
my issue with this has actually been setting up a system to easily create cards.
Would writing out every single unknown word from a movie/series and throwing it into a deck for reviewing with all the vectors enabled (meaning, typing, kana -> kanji, kanji -> kana) also considered sentence mining. Well, the method I use, though, is kinda retrograde-ish, since all that I have is a Notepad .txt file, a video of an anime episode (with both English and Japanese subs, even though English is not my mother tongue and not even my second language, but whatever), several dictionaries opened at once (to copy the definitions in my mother tongue) and an automated deck system that allows my add the vocabulary cards with comments to them and then study them over and over again. The idea is kinda the same, but the approach is definitely more オッサンくさい.
Yeah I would consider that sentence mining
Could this be a way to learn the Kana or written script? Rather than get hung up on trying to pre memorize all of it? Maybe pick out short phrases or single words. At first , learn how they're spelled and also learned the characters to spell them at the same time?
5:11 oh, moTHERF-
thank you, but i have one problem, where do you watch japanese subbed contents?
same problem lol
you can watch japanese youtube, and try to find stuff that has captions. or just watch anime, like is said in the video
Yes but... How do I make that in mobile??
I have AnkiDroid on my phone, I'd like to try your file. Could you share your file?
Yuri
Everything seems to work right except the definitions. Anybody know a fix?
it doesn't work for me
Can you elaborate on 6:17? So how would a note be updated?
The creator sometimes updates the note type to add small changes or fixes. You have to update it manually by following the instructions on the website, but I've never done it
@@mikuminou Thanks! I had some weird thing with the AJT add-on, where it wasn't adding the pitch accent lines/ hover furigana, but now it seemingly works whether or not I use the code from the jp-mining-note website or the default code. Honestly not gonna question it lol.
Edit: Is there any way to just screen cap the video without fullscreening the video? I did a test and it captured the yomi-chan popup and some other items.
@@bobbywhite5319 i just close the yomichan popup by clicking the subtitle line after i make the card. as for capturing other stuff, im not sure, it doesnt seem to capture anything else when im not fullscreened, but i usually watch in fullscreen anyway
@@mikuminou Thanks for the help! To prevent the creation of duplicates, I later remapped my old cards and they were orange which was expected. Also, some of the furigana was double stacked because of formatting redundnacies, but it was pretty tolerable.
However, the odd thing was when I made new jp-mining-note cards, sometimes the info circle would be red, mostly orange even for the new cards. I think it was due to changing the name of the card from "Mining Card" to "JP Mining", but I'm not sure. So I scrapped the remapped deck and decided to keep my old mining cards seperate
Anyways, the neat thing with Yomichan is that it can also detect duplicates across collections or decks, so I got to keep my old format of cards for nostalgia and posterity!
Sorry if this was a bother to you, but thank you so much for helping me with this and making this video that let me learn about this in the first place!
why are the only high quality language videos about japanese. where the spanish ones at
cuz spanish ez
I know this sounds masturbatory (it is) but in my experience Japanese learners (the real ones, not the LARPers) are some of the most resourceful and intelligent people on earth.
we're desperate
We Japanese learners are simply built different :D Ngl. though...for European languages this would also be very useful, but for different reasons. I also wonder if Mandarin and Korean has such support/resources as Japanese.
hey do you know where i could get set up help?
both the asbplayer and jp mining note devs are in the Refold and moe way server I believe
Does this work offline?
**S U C C**
I think if you have a decent amount of knowledge of the Japanese language you can get some understanding by watching anime, but if you start from 0, you might pick up phrases but to reach anything beyond that you'll have to learn the old-fashioned way. You can't just cut out the hard work.
