Toujin No Negoto　★　唐人の寝言

I recently started playing the Japanese version of the DS game Bleach 2nd. It is actually a surprisingly addictive game. The DS isn't really built for fighting games, but they managed to pull one out and made it work in this title.

But I'm not here to praise the game. It's actually a great resource for cocky, aggresive and otherwise rude Japanese. You can go through the sound library, which you unlock as the game progresses, and have every character's taunts or battle sounds played back, and written out for you.

I thought I'd jot a few of them down here for fun.
