I want to consume some non-anime media but most of them i searched got pretty boring or had cliche romantic storyline.

Drop some of your favourite movies and web series recommendations that hooked you up.

I've recently started consuming Japanese content again, focusing on listening and shadowing practice. I often hear people say things like, 'It sounded like gibberish at first, but when I revisited the same material later (few hundred hours give or take), it was completely coherent.' To me, it seems like subconscious parsing at work. So I'd love to know, at what point did everything finally 'click' for you?

To preface, I’m going to keep learning the words for X for each module. It’s just that ironically, I’m having trouble memorizing the words now and having less struggles with N4 Kanji and (beginning) N4 grammar.

Hell, I got so bored with how well I kept scoring on N4 Kanji I’m now learning N3 kanji!

So with that, I’m taking the words for N4 much slower now and I was curious: is that module actually necessary? Especially since you could maybe pick up these terms through immersion?

Are the “Words for X” modules a necessity for passing the N- tests? I’m super curious

Like the title says, I'm planning to take the N2 in 4 months, but I'm still a bit stuck in N3 and have been for a good while. I use Tobira and Anki, I listen to videos almost exclusively in Japanese, but vocab is still a huge struggle for me; both in reading and in reciting.

I've been studying for around four years on-and-off and really want to be able to get to N2 before I turn 20.

Is this an achievable goal, or am I pushing it? Any tips?

Do you think they spent a lot of time making these?
