the dictionary for the furigana inserter is quite limited and sometimes gives wrong readings... but i guess that cannot be helped.

in Japanese Counters (the Free e-Book) on Tofugu Comments
Thanks for the ebook... I once went to a friends' house and in their study room was a book on the counters Mandarin uses... It was a thick as a a volume of an encyclopedia.
You are right that you do not need to know all of them but it is really important to know the ones you need to.

in The Curse of Colonel Sanders on Tofugu Comments
What about Colonel Sanders dressed as a meido? Just recently he donned the black and white dress and apron for Akihabara passersby? He did not get mad and cursed the otaku-kei that put him in that situation?

@Koichi's comment on KFC and rice. I would not have it any other way! Here in the Philippines that is standard fare. We get all KFC meals with rice on tow. I really thought that was normal not until I got to the States as well as one Korean friend reminded me again that even in Korea rice was the staple but they cannot even order rice on KFC.

in Beginning Japanese I: Where do self-teachers start? on Tofugu Comments
Hello, I want to ask how is your impression on the Genki book? I have a "sempai" in the IT business that I look up to and he uses that one. In the Philippines, I think the official book to use is Minna no Nihongo because even the Japan Foundation here uses that. Also, I find it hard to find a copy of it in the University libraries. I am really curious. Oh also what is the complete title of Genki?
