    4th reason to learn Japanese: To enjoy the language.
    Honestly, one of the most interesting things I've found when learning Japanese (and other languages), is how it forces you to think differently from your own native language. Also, learning a different language can also teach you so much about their culture, what values they hold, etc.

    After learning some Japanese, I rewatched Akira for the first time in many years, and I really picked up on how the characters speak to each other differently: Kaneda treats Kei like an equal, but Kei calls him "Kaneda-kun" like a child because she doesn't take him seriously. Then towards the end, she drops the "-kun" part. That's a lot of cultural context that English dubs & subtitles can't really explain.

      "Kun"after name also has meaning that we are still not that close but showing some respect and friendship . When we get close like family or best friend or partner,we dont use Kun or San(this term is used for girl mainly) after name.
      I remember in the end Kaneda and Kei getting really closer each other so Kei didnt use Kun because they became relationship.😊sorry about my poor english ,hoping you get this.

    I've been study Japanese for 4 years now (including 3 years of high school class), from my experience, kanji are very VERY useful for learning new vocabulary, you can even understand the meaning and reading of a word without even having come across it before just by interpreting the kanji that compose it. I have made a lot of progress in oral comprehension by watching children's cartoons (like Doraemon, Anpan man, etc...), this kind of shows have a rather simple vocabulary which is useful when you are starting out. Unfortunately, despite all these efforts, I can't say that I can really speak Japanese... Well, I can manage in the street and start a discussion, but I don't feel like I have a decent level. But it's still a very interesting language, so to the neophytes who read this message: don't lose hope and don't give up, you'll regret it!

      Having a teacher in front of you is really useful to get all the little details regarding the prononciation. Plus, a teacher is supposed to know how to teach (I know it sounds stupid but it counts) so you will learn in more efficient way than learning by yourself. On the other hand, some people are more used to learn alone and you will learn only things you're interested in (so it will be funnier).
      To me, the best way is to combine the both : working at home is essential if you want to learn seriously but having a teacher will help you to learn faster, learn more and learn in a more efficient way 👍🏻

    Keep in mind that we all learn how to speak our native languages without knowing any of its grammar, rules, etc. for quite a while. Still, we know how to speak it, and know when something is said incorrectly because everyone corrected us at the time. So the most effective way to progress in learning a language is to practice it, rather than theorize and study its grammar and stuff. Of course it's all important, but if you're looking for practical results, practicing is the way to go. The way of saying things sticks with you.
    I think another good reason to learn another language is the effect that it has on your consciousness. New thought patterns arise. It's fun to express yourself in different manners through languages.

    I had Japanese lessons for five years once a week, but I haven't done it in 2 years now. Having a daily dosage of Japanese is definitely a must, one of the hardest things is actually preserving the knowledge. With French and English, it's fairly easy because there are quite a lot of similarities in terms of words and alphabet and even quite a bit of grammar. But with Japanese, there are 3 different alphabets and even kanjis have more than one pronunciation, and the way of speaking changes from person to person and there are different sentence endings depending on what you want to say. Basically, it's a lot, but I think it's worth it, the only thing I regret is not keeping up with it during covid... Well done to anyone who read till the end :)

      While it takes me two or three times as long i store it in my long term memory because it takes more practice and time to learn it.

    I've found that most anime doesn't usually reflect how real people talk. But a great way I've found to listen to the language is to watch Japanese pro wrestling. The commentators narrate the entire show, and the wrestlers have interviews between the matches. So it becomes way easier to pick out certain words and phrases if you're constantly hearing someone describe what you're seeing.

      I already got level n2 in Japanese, and and the best tip is learning hiragana and katakana first, after that you need some grammar, because japanese is a lot different compare with other languages and don't relate in mostly anything, Idk what's your native language but if it is not asian you'll get this problem.
      And together with grammar learn kanji, the best way is with a book called "remembering the kanjis", if you follow the method in the book it's easier to remember, it's easy to find it for free in the internet and there are a lot of videos explaining how it works.
      And get hooked to some anime or dorama, watch in Japanese with japanese subs.
      After some time making these things you will be able to read a considerable amount of content, so read forum, articles and everything around something you like, I loved Evangelion, so I spend hour reading japanese discussions about it, when I don't understand something I would translate and write that in a paper for later practice.

    One recommendation for listening practice and maybe one to help with pronunciation. Is watching TH-cam videos of Japanese teachers and even maybe interviews; when a Japanese person is getting interviewed on the street. I feel that watching those type of videos you can really hear all the authentic Japanese that Japanese people use daily. I have been studying for 1 year (not fluent yet but hope to be in the future) I have made a lot of progress by watching those types of videos.

    i do agree 100% with the point that actually knowing japanese increases the enjoyability of watching anime exponentially. you understand the jokes better. you understand characters better. tiny nuances that can’t be expressed in english. im midway through my learning journey and its been really amazing actually understanding some of the little jokes and fun character moments they sprinkle into the writing, and getting to laugh at them.

    As of Anime I think one of the best to learn Japanese is actually Detective Conan… because it generally also shows many aspects of Japanese daily life and culture and sometimes even teaches you history and is pretty accurate about it and the way they’re talking is a bit much because it’s supposed to be entertaining but still quite accurate in comparison to many other animes.
    And that’s bundled with action, humor and the thrills of cold (or sometimes hot) blooded murder and affairs and crime and mystery and what not.
    I really recommend this one!

    Thanks for this great content! I am Korean and recently started self-learning Japanese to understand anime without subs (just as you've said lol). I've heard from my fellow Koreans that learning Japanese as a Korean is actually a lot easier than someone from elsewhere, but in my case, I lived most of my life abroad so I'm not quite good at my own language and don't know if it's actually a lot easier haha. Actually, it is really HARD since I have to memorize all the hiragana and katakana. But as I was learning, I've realized that there are so many similarities between some Korean and Japanese expressions! I think that is the coolest part about learning Japanese. In fact, idk if this is accurate or not, when Japanese is translated to Korean, around 90% of the translation is exactly the same, even the puns!! It's probably because Korean and Japanese share Kanji (we actually call it Hanja in Korean). Anyway, my comment got unwittingly bit too long but I'll keep in mind of your useful tips :))

      It comes down to the origins the Korean language. Proto-Korean speakers were originally from Manchuria. They migrated and mixed with replaced/absorbed the local Peninsular Japonic speakers, and then the language went through centuries of Sinicization via loan words. You still can hear the pitch accent from substrate Japonic language in southern parts of the peninsula.

    As for subtitles, I recently read a study that subtitles *in the target language* actually do help. So if it's anime you'll wanna watch it with Japanese subtitles (assuming your reading/writing is up to the same level as your speaking/listening).
    Here's how it was proven:
    3 groups were given a comprehension test both before and after what they watched.
    Group 1: No subs.
    Group 2: Native-language subs.
    Group 3: Target-language subs.
    Result:
    Group 1: Little to no improvement.
    Group 2: Best comprehension of *character's motivations, story and plot* Little improvement in target-language comprehension
    Gropp 3: Highest improvement in target-language comprehension. Mild understanding of character's motivations, story and plot.
    NOTE: Language learner should be *at least* lower-intermediate.

    3:48 as someone who is still rather new to learning Japanese, I feel the romaji is rather helpful. I recognize that pronunciations are different than how they are in English, but I feel the romaji acts as a guideline for how each symbol sounds. You've just got to know how to use the Japanese accent in my opinion. For me pronunciation isn't as difficult(for the most part) since I've spent a couple years of my life studying Spanish and as a result learning how to use the Spanish accent. This means I have some experience in pronouncing letters differently from english. I do struggle to do the r sound in Japanese though, or "ら”, "り", "ろ", "れ", and "る ". It's said that the r sound is pronounced as a mix between the english r and l, but when I listen to Japanese words, often I hear a d sound.

Your analogy isn't quite accurate either, Japanese has 3 different scripts and yes, I know, katakana is one used for loanwords, often in English, but even so, if you can base another language on your native one, it becomes easier to create those connections. Now that I know hiragana, I could use it to help with my katakana studies, but romaji has helped me nevertheless. It's different for everyone, of course, this is just my experience

      That applies to most languages including English. Before I got somewhat decent at English it had been nothing but a bunch of nonsense for years, but it's when you get to a point where you begin to understand more than you don't is when it finally feels rewarding. Being able to understand the language from within is what makes it special. No art, whether that be an anime or an American TV series, can be accurately conveyed in another language. Now, whenever I see my parents watching something of "English" production on the TV I can't help but laugh inside. All of the nuances such as jokes or any cultural differences are straight-up gone or represented inaccurately. Even the titles of the movies seem funny to me at this point. That's the benefit you get for becoming comprehensive of a language. It hits different. The same goes for the Japanese. I personally don't find just watching anime enough of a reason to motivate myself to try and learn it but good luck to y'all trying to do so.

    I think these are the best advices I've seen so far. Most people tell you to start learning Kanji early but I'd say that's wrong because of several reasons. First of all it's really really hard to learn Kanji because they are way more complicated compared to Hiragana and Katakana, so you it takes way longer to memorize them (Kana are honestly not that hard to learn). This often leads to demotivation and is the number one reason that I've seen or heard of why people stopped learning japanese. Secondly, (at least as far as I know) in Japan the children also start writing and reading with Hiragana with only maybe a handful of Kanji (and only the simple ones) while learning more Kanji over a long period of time (usually until they graduate from highschool and even then it's only a fraction of all existing Kanji). Lastly, Kanji aren't that important anymore at least in terms of writing them. Computer and smartphones automatically change/suggest the Hiragana you typed into Kanji and almost all of our communication and even bureaucracy is electronic nowadays. Even many japanese people forget how to write many of the Kanji they learned, but they can usually always read them unless it's a rarely used Kanji.
    In short: Learning Kanji is important but you can take your time and don't have to do it immediately.

    Beautiful video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.

    Step 1: Learn Hiragana and Katakana
    Step 2: Get a textbook for begginners like Genki
    Step 3: Use Anki to learn vocab and kanji
    Step 4: Once far enough just start reading and watching native stuff at your level
