This is just a small cheat-sheet for those who want to learn prememo, but don't feel they have a good enough grip on Japanese. Obviously this takes a basic reading/grammar level to understand because I'm explaining the terms here with how they relate to the game, not actual Japanese grammer, though obviously they can all be applied to real Japanese grammar.
Anyways, if you have any questions about a specific term that's not listed here on this post, then feel free to post in the comments and I'll add that term to this post! Hit the jump to view the cheat sheet!

Bookmarked. Very useful!
ReplyDeleteIs the author still active?
ReplyDeleteI sadly don't update this blog much, but if you want to talk about PM, or you have requests for blog posts, I'm still available.
DeleteI just started pm and brought a miku td and a bt box yesterday and needed some help in translating, may I ask where you from?
DeleteIgnore the where you from question, I wanted to ask another question is how much power of a card is consider big and how much power is consider average?
DeleteIt really depends on the abilities of the characters, as well as the power/toughness. A 4/1 40/40 on it's own is somewhat weak, but if it has a really good ability that allows you to draw cards, or do other things, then it's seen as much stronger. In addition, cards that have 2 source are much more viable than 1 source cards. Overall, the highest printed AP/DP on a card is 50/50. However, those are usually given to 5 or 6 cost characters. But, there are many ways for even some low cost characters to reach that AP or DP quite easily. It really depends on the situation and how it works in the deck. There's very few characters that are "oh that card is good no matter what deck it's in!", and the few that ARE like that generally are ones that allow you to get card advantage rather than just being straight up High AP/DP.
DeleteTo answer your question simply, 70/70+ is where I would generally say "too big to kill easily" 60/60 is what i would say "that's big" 30/30 and below are generally meat shields. 40/50 or 50/40 are generally decent sized characters.
And are there specific cards you want translated from Miku?
I will be busy for a while, will tell you which I need help when I free, do you have Facebook cause I think is easier to talk in fb
DeleteYes, if you join the Singapore Precious Memories group, you can find me on there!
