I heard that N2 is basically the same level as native Japanese elementary school kids or maybe even worse.

Achieving N2 level is an achievement for any foreigner and I don't want to take away their time and effort spent but let's be real, a 10 year old kid is still better than you without even trying.

I have no idea what level do elementary school kids have, but keep in mind the JLPT doesn't evaluate speaking or writing, and the N2 exam, from what I've seen on a quick search, only requires knowing how to READ, not write, around 1000 kanji. I don't know how complex the language used in the reading and speaking parts are, but yeah, I can see an elementary school child easily beating any foreigner with an N2 certificate. For some reason I thought it was harder.

Chibi's setting a really fucking low goal for himself, I guess he wants to take on higher levels later? Let's see how long it takes him to get there. Of all of his fleeting passions, the japanophilia seems to be lasting the most. But will it survive having to memorize thousands of kanjis, sometimes with multiple readings each?

It's crazy that despite everything he does and his personality there's still women that want to have sex with Chibi.

When it comes to men, it's about being exceptional and standing out from his peers. You could be exceptionally rich, successful or charismatic (which are all good things) and attract women that way. Or you could be an exceptional drug dealer, gang member, school shooter or serial killer (all arguably bad things) and you'll attract (certain types of) women/fangirls this way too.

In Chibi's case, he's an exceptional autist, notorious lolcow public figure with a possible public humiliation fetish. Chibi having a lolcow thread proves he is exceptional and that is, in a certain way, attractive. The fact that Googly Eyes still sticks by him despite at one point, being horrified by the existence of this thread while Chibi was livestreaming a Super Mario Sunshine speed run shows she sees something in him, whatever that is.

I'm sure most college educated Japanese people could ace the N1 with no effort, it doesn't require to know all the kanji, only the ones that are used in modern writing and literature, which are a bit less than 3000.
Inferring the meaning through radicals only works with a few basic ones, a bit more complexity and you're lost if you haven't memorized them. 虫 is bug, 角 can be horn, corner or angle, so what is 触? A pointy bug? No, it means touching.

A lot of it, from what I understand, has to do with knowing all the kanji. Most Japanese people know a fair amount but it's like an English person necessarily knowing every single word in English. I mean I wouldn't expect the average American to know what lugubrious, lexiphanic and laconic mean but they're all perfectly cromulent words. If you don't run across it every day, or don't have a prodigious vocabulary, those words are meaningless unless you can extract the meaning from the context or the etymology of the words. Same with the kanji. Now I can't tell you why 触 doesn't mean "pointy bug" all I can say is I learned it meant touching or closeness or being moved. But I'm sure a Japanese linguist could.

You don't need to speak but you will need to write in some sections whether it's to choose the proper kanji to describe a scene or to fill in the blanks. Like you'll be asked to summarize a passage you just read. Sure a lot of questions are just point and click. But some you will need to actually write out your answer. You're also evaluated on your grammar and usage of words.

And I'm pretty sure you need to communicate effectively with the people who will be administering the test meaning you will need some understanding of the language. But specifics? I can't say as again I've never taken it.

How about Googly Eyes getting friendzoned by Chibi?

All it means is he doesn't consider her to be suitable boning material and yet... she's possibly the best he could hope for.

To this day, said friends on there are still cosplay camgirls that never interact with his posts whatsoever.

Gotta give the poor guy some credit for trying to bait interaction from them at least, amidst their hundreds of followers on there that they barely read anything from anyways.

You don't need to know how to write or speak, I should know, I took it. Look:

The most you need is to know how to say hello to the exam conductor and thell them you're ready, something even Chibi can do.
