What was the first book you read in Japanese?
for manga, I like kanjitomo for OCR, and for reading text on my phone I use a browser extension to generate epub from WNs or otherwise try and find an epub, and then use the typhon-kai reader (https://github.com/dajimenezja/typhon/releases) in android which can do dictionary lookups (I tried kiwi browser+ttu and also jidoujisho and both were pretty scuffed (Super laggy on large books, and triggered dictionary lookups while I was swiping to scroll down which was super annoying))

I read 200 books in Japanese!
https://github.com/dajimenezja/typhon/releases if you're ok to manually install an APK. A bit clunky but it has the fastest dictionary lookups of any app. I read my first 20 books on this.

Super Robot Wars Z English Translation?
I believe that in theory it is possible to set up Textractor to pull in text from PCSX2 and machine translate it. I messed around with it a while back, specifically to try it with Z1, and I think I was able to sort of make it work, but it was a huge pain and you needed to redo the whole setup every time you start up the game. I don't really remember the details though... I can't even guarantee it was Textractor I used.

Dude, knock it off and stop being a leetist. If someone can't or does not want to learn then just drop it. Textractor is a good one with Deepl. https://github.com/Artikash/Textractor/releases

On Screen Translator?
Or just grab textractor (https://github.com/Artikash/Textractor) and hook it into your emulator directly. But it takes a little more know-how to set it up (and not all emus support it).

What Japanese learning tools do you use on a regular basis?
Steam - lots of games in Japanese, including Visual Novels. Textractor - tool for extracting text from Visual Novels and copying them to clipboard. Combined with Clipboard Inserter, texthooker.html, and 10ten, it makes reading Visual Novels a breeze. ShareX - OCR tool, handy for games and manga. I use it similarly to Textractor, combined with Clipboard Inserter, texthooker.html, and 10ten.
