Yotsubato! Volume 2 Reading Pack

The second Yotsubato! reading pack is now complete!

About the Reading Pack:
 

Continuing from where the first Yotsubato! reading pack left off, this pack covers the entirety of the second volume of the manga. Learning how to read and have fun through immersion is the best way to learn Japanese, and the purpose of this pack is to help you to take those first steps into reading. 

This reading pack will help you to build a strong foundation in Japanese that will allow you to enjoy the language as you learn. After using the reading packs, you'll have the skills needed to learn through immersion on your own.

Here's a list of what is included in the pack:

• Fifty-five pages of vocabulary list! The vocabulary for each page of the manga compiled to form the ultimate reading companion.
• Over 1000 vocabulary cards plus more than 60 sentences pre-loaded into Anki decks
• A short instruction manual to help you get the most out of the reading pack

Note: Files come in both document and PDF formats, packaged inside of a RAR file. To open the RAR, you may need to download WinRAR (you can google or try this download).

The Vocabulary List:

 Normally learning to read Japanese requires a lot of searching through dictionaries to decipher each and every word, which is why the vocabulary list makes reading so much easier. Every word on every page of the manga has been listed with kanji, pronunciation, and definition (in English). Simply keep the vocabulary list nearby as you read and you can easily look up any words that you don't know. You'll never have to dig through a dictionary!

Vocabulary is listed in a page-by-page format.

The Sentences:

Just like the vocabulary list, each sentence included in the reading pack is from the manga. These are solid sentences that will really help you with both grammar and vocabulary. Just load the sentences into Anki after you've had some time to learn the vocabulary to get practice with words in context.

Anki Decks:

All of the sentences and vocabulary for the first volume of the manga have been pre-loaded into Anki decks, so all you have to do is import. There are more than 800 cards in total! By combining these decks with the vocabulary reference list, you'll not only be able to read the manga, but learn and remember all of the words that you encounter along the way.
