Oh, back then I totally also used… some websites I found on google. And, uhm… I think I remember printing out a torrented professional Japanese handbook, making a fancy folder to put it in and then… never actually using it. :D
As you can see, teenage/young adult me was very realistic and very committed!
Reminds me of probably the most pretentious thing I ever did: as a teenager in the late 90s, I tried to learn Russian in order to read Tolstoy and Dostoyevsky in the original 😆
You can’t learn Japanese from anime alone
If you think you can then あなたはバカ
(Please do not reply to me in Japanese because I can’t communicate it in fluently yet because I’m still learning it)

I am committed to it right now but currently keeping an eye on a cyclone (hurricane for americans) to make sure it doesn’t hit land
Hoping it’ll just pass by
I do have a procrastination problem as well that I somehow need to get over
Oh and was it genki by chance that you tormented because lets just say I’m aware of there being torrents for it
Good luck, dealing with procrastination is hard, but it definitely is doable!
Sadly, I genuinely don’t remember, was around 2010 or so, so quite a while back.
