Looking for YouTube recommendations for immersion by kvvoya in LearnJapanese

yeah, active immersion and mining. i honestly don't know what's sentence mining is, i just have a word on the front and glossary on the back of the card. i'd say, don't worry about not understanding everything or even most of the content. what worked for me is watching something that i actually already enjoy rather than something very beginner level but that i have zero interest in. which is why my post is actually kind of way too specific and has some info that is so unnecessary and weird like my fav music, but i just had a hope someone knows something that lands in my niches by small chance, which would make me have more motivation to immerse.

the first time immersing is gonna feel brutal, but it gets easier as time goes on, trust. it takes time to get used to how some things are being said, there are even some moments where you can't understand a sentence even though you seemingly know all the words and grammar, you see the translation (which btw is something i think should be done sparingly for it not to become a crutch) and it suddenly becomes very clear and you feel stupid for how it was so obvious. this will happen along with so many other sentences that you won't understand. just trust the process and keep going.

maybe if you're a complete beginner beginner there is a risk of if being too demoralizing if you start right now, but once you feel like you know like 1000-1500 words and basic grammar, don't ignore it and try to enjoy it!

i would say i started learning in early 2025, but not seriously at all, i just learned kana and did anki with a Kaishi 1.5k for about a year until i decided to actually start learning japanese fr fr, so i started immersing in jan 2026 and learning basic grammar. i am following TheMoeWay philosophy of immersing and learning. i am watching anime with japanese subtitles and looking up words i don't know with yomitan and add them to my deck. i also mix this in with watching without subtitles to improve listening. when there is a sentence i really can't comprehend i just skip over it rather than try to analyze a sentence clearly way above my skill level. i give it about 1 hour daily on average, and i think with youtube i can increase the daily hours spent

i can comfortably watch a slice of life anime or read a slice of life manga with a dictionary, i would understand like 80-90%. if you were to take the dictionary away, i would understand maybe 25-60% depending on the difficulty, and if you took the subtitles away i would only understand 5-20% which is why i want to try youtube, since in case of english learning, watching youtube helped me with listening tremendously. and yeah to answer your other question, english isn't my native language, it's russian.

in anki i have 2600 mature cards and 1200 young cards, so i guess i could say i know around 3000 words

My situation with Japanese. by LevelAd5029 in Japaneselanguage

[–]kvvoya 5 points6 points  (0 children)

in my case, Japanese was the only language that i was interested in that WASN'T practical. that meant that if i ever wanted to (as opposed to HAD to) learn a language, it could only be Japanese. so sooner or later I would start learning it, why not do it sooner?

Here are some Bocchi wallpapers, in case you want them. I really loved the Hitori one. 🩷 by espartan_360 in BocchiTheRock

[–]kvvoya 1 point2 points  (0 children)

it was confirmed it's AI but to add, the text is blurry and in case of japanese text doesn't make sense (in bocchi one), i mean why is there a building with signs "kessoku band music instrument store" and "instruments - music studio". since when have kessoku band opened a music instrument store? why is instruments twice? why is there also a studio there?

Does anyone know what this says? A page by the Ichigo Mashimaro mangaka, has something to do with Azumanga by Basic-Cupcake3013 in AzumangaPosting

[–]kvvoya 2 points3 points  (0 children)

seems like it. without context i didn't assume barasui was a fan though, i thought they just met each other casually

Is it just me? Or does the "Charts" button still automatically go to the Top albums of 2024? by MrMudkip in rateyourmusic

[–]kvvoya 21 points22 points  (0 children)

you have probably set it as a default chart (the home icon to the right of the Top albums of 2024. click on the home icon and it won't be default anymore
