I understand it is a large undertaking, but I am morally obligated to shill anytime someone expresses interest. If you watch a lot of anime or listen to a lot of Japanese music or do something else where you are exposed to Japanese, just putting a little bit of regular effort goes a long way. You would probably be surprised how fast you progress, and seeing that first bit of progress is addicting and makes you want more. We really need more based people to learn Japanese. Its lonely over here on the other side.
I'm 80% of the way through Genki II, and I find myself not reading subtitles for simpler shows every so often. It's wild the feeling of finally understanding just how much liberty localizers take 24/7

Thats awesome to hear man. Savor that feeling, it will keep pushing you forward! The more people that learn, the less power those psychopaths have.
