I came across this sentence, 日本人とは、日本人とは何かという問を、頻りに発して倦むことのない国民である。Is there a kind of phrase to describe this topic, the way there is 高齢化社会 for ageing society? I looked at アイデンティティクライシス but this didn’t seem right. (Please tell me if I should ask over at r/translator instead.) This sentence was written in the ’70s, though it’s also not the first time I’ve come across the notion. If anyone can point me towards modern views, or tell me if it’s not really a thing anymore, I’d be grateful too.
So I just finished Star Ocean 2R on Switch and didn’t realize how amazing of a learning tool having a chat log where you can replay voice lines on demand would be. Is anyone familiar with any other games that have a feature like this?

How do I talk about story arcs in a particular order? Like how I would say 二番目, 四人目, etc. I know as a suffix its just -編, but what if I want to say “Oh I don’t like the second arc of that series”, or something like that?
When hours are calculated for JLPT passes, how much of those hours is vocabulary? I’m almost through the N3 vocabulary deck on Anki, but my grammar has lagged behind.
