Most of us can't read Japanese at all, let alone fast enough to be tested. Dr. Akihiro Kawamura of the Speed Reading Committee won't have any such incompetence with DS owners today, and came up with training methods to become a master of speed reading. That is, reading Japanese, which we can't comprehend in the first place. How about speed looking?Still, there's got to be some fluent Fanboy readers out there just itching to shave some seconds off their record recitals of the latest Kanji literature. The game teaches masterful reading through mini-games and a good old-fashioned timer. Expect Speed Reading DS to rocket up the North American sales charts!

I can slowly pick through some Japanese but I'm not even fast enough to read subtitles. This "non-game" would probably be infuriating.

This looks useful, if not interesting... (Being one of the aforementioned Fluent fanboy readers) I freakin' *hate* reading 縦書き (vertical writing) in Japanese... I takes me at least 3 times longer... This might really help improve that...
