Unironically it will work as @Thorry84@feddit.nl and a bunch just like him has put in the work to Just Work^TM

Films with subtitles

That’s copeium. Most people are too lazy to match meanining with words when wathing films. Ask any weeb if they know japanese from watching anime for years. (I don’t)

I satrted to pick up language from flashcards, childrens books and textbooks. Not from translated films. (english or japanese or russian)

It took 2 years but he prerecorded a bunch of videos and kept posting.

This is fantastic! You should repost this into !japaneselanguage@sopuli.xyz
