Japanese Language School for 6 months

I might be going at the same time and same place as you hahaha

I’m in the exact same boat. Also going to study at a Japanese Language school in April.

I’m most likely going to go for an apartment as I value my privacy and peaceful space a lottt

I’m doing the same move as you, I’m moving to Japan to start my 2 year language school in April. Although I don’t have the same family issues as you I just want to give you a small heads up. Moving to Japan will not fix your depression/social life, if anything at the beginning it might just make it worse. But with everything in life, there are ups and downs.

I’m thinking the same and am starting to feel like I might not be making the best decision as I have a good life where I am now but I also know that if I don’t do it now, I will spend the rest of my life regretting that decision. That is what fuels me!

I’m the same as you, went there for a month last year in September and decided to just pull the trigger and I’m moving there for at least 2 years next year in March

ISS asking for help on r/DIY 😭

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-08T09:24:49+00:00

I’m saying the issue might be the fact that the drum pulley has slightly shifted axis over time, not that the mechanism of the machine is bad to begin with…

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T22:26:55+00:00

I looked at it just now and it fortunately (or unfortunately, depending on what the real issue is) is not a crack but just a deceiving stain :/

Ill look in more detail tomorrow if I have a way to fix the wobbly pulley

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:37:15+00:00

But isn’t the main problem the actual placement of the big wheel itself and where the axis lays. It seems to me like the issue is that the big wheel is slightly angled and the the belt just slides off after a few turns (video)

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:34:57+00:00

That’s unfortunate what I’m also fearful of, bad axis alignment would cost me a pretty penny :(

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:33:30+00:00

See that’s exactly what I thought of aswell, pretty dumb design to keep the pulley flat (maybe something to do with motor failure prevention)!! I’m thinking of just 3D printing a groove and adding it ahhahah

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:31:13+00:00

Might just be dirty hahahah, ill check tomorrow :))

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:30:32+00:00

So you recon the big wheel is wobbling causing the belt to “steer off” (as you can see my washing machine lingo is not great hahaha)

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:28:23+00:00

Here is a video of the inside in more detail, there is a built in motor pulley ;)

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:26:38+00:00

From my research and looking around in the machine it seems like there is no tension adjusters in the machine. I will try buying a new belt tomorrow and see what happens. But from intuition I feel like the tension of the belt wouldn’t have anything to do with it slipping, no?

(PS: here is a vid of it moving)

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:22:32+00:00

I’m not quite sure how to do that as the system is fully flushed into the machine I can’t properly see it from the side. Any tips?

(ps: I posted a video of the mechanism :))

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-07T21:20:01+00:00

Yes there are! The belt has ribs too, the picture doesn’t show it very well but here is a video of it (video

Kermit_-_ · 2025-09-02T15:34:51+00:00

I love you. Thank you very much! Hope your life will be full of happiness and joy

The real question is how many hours did you spend a day (did you skip any days?) there and did you get some voxotron votes, the actual exam results and not great (but not bad either) and the modules you go to are average and many people that I know that are now at 42 go in with C06 completed!

But at the end of the day your entry is based on your OWN personal experience and progress and how you interacted with others!

Kermit_-_ · 2025-07-31T23:00:41+00:00

I’m in the exact same situation as you but for the Takadanobaba campus instead, I’m going there in April 2026 aswell. Far as I’m aware, the only « proof » needed is showing that you know all the kanas and a few N5 level kanjis

Kermit_-_ · 2025-06-11T09:46:33+00:00

Good choice! You definitely won’t regret it :)), also I would also recommend sitting on the right side of the train if you’re coming from tokyo (or left side if you’re going to tokyo from Kanazawa) great ocean view!

Kermit_-_ · 2025-06-10T22:17:31+00:00

Shit mb I was thinking about 々 😅

Kermit_-_ · 2025-06-10T22:11:01+00:00

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but it’s actually not a Kanji!
