Thanks.

Of course, having a grasp of the language (and culture) definitely helps a lot. :D I mean one thing I've learned from reading TL comments and stuff is that part of the difficulty is recognizing the poetic analogies (for example, describing fireworks as "blossoming flowers in the sky") and such. But yeah, patience is perhaps the most important. Otherwise, you'd never successfully find the intention and/or do the necessary research. Of course, what I lack the patience for is finding the correct kanji (having to figure out the number of strokes, and which radical was used and such...I can only deeply sigh about that). It'd be nice if the pic-to-text converters were more reliable than they are (at least the free ones I've tried).
