Hi friends! I know this is an old video but I just wanted to say THANK YOU for the all the love and support that this video is getting. 🤗 I’ve been getting a lot of corrections on this video including the “こんにちわ” and my pronunciation and I appreciate all of it. I’d like to think I’ve gotten a little better now as I’m doing my best to constantly improve. ☺️

Again, thank you and stay safe always my dear friends! ❤️
Thank you so much! I started teaching myself hiragana/Katakana while in quarantine and I would really love to be able to speak Japanese one day because, to visit Japan has always been one of my Life's dream. Hope it sismt too late.
This video is so aesthetically eye pleasing haha
Thank you for this video! I've been teaching myself for 2 years now, but I gave up almost 6 months ago just because I got busy and burned out. This is the motivation I needed! どもありがとうございます！
I really want to thank you for this video, I had lost my motivation to learn this language this past weeks but now I feel like I can do it 😭😭❤️
thank you this video really motivated me to keep learning Japanese even though i'm only on hiragana
me: brain will u remember this?
brain: の
I wouldn’t’ have understood this joke a day ago and im so PROUD ✌️😔 🤪💅
@@patasmaranas9711 what does it mean 😭😭 I'm still learning hiragana and katakana
@@jana-ig6tr the sound “の” makes is “no” ;)

maybe it's the motivation
Thank you! That really means a lot. 😅❤️
Lmao
Hii!
I'm from India and I love Japan!
Would love to be friends with you if possible!☺️
Lemme know!

Whenever you speak Japanese, I feel like I’m at Japan 😭 you’re like one of those Japanese tour guides.
Yep her vids are so cute
Onaji ww!
it means: Same Lol
@@sealbrothea2264 若者言葉知ってる？スゲェーなぁ
Yep
So true
The urge to study Japanese:
The fact I’m already studying Mandarin Chinese: *are you sure you want to confuse yourself*
Opposite for me, I’m learning Japanese but I’ve started to want to learn Mandarin Chinese 🥲...
I’m learning Korean but I wanna learn Japanese but I do not wanna cram both languages in my head
Actually, going from Chinese to Japanese might be good! You know the characters in Chinese right? Kanji is like Hiragana and Katakana with Chinese characters! Like you do know “yi” right? (One in Chinese) So in Japanese one is “ichi”. Then in kanji, you can use the same character of yi, for ichi!
learning japanese as a chinese is a sort of upperhand, you can make good use of it (especially if you have the drive to learn japanese), even if you are uninterested its fine, just learn whatever piques your interest i guess
also, im a chinese as well haha
I'm Chinese and my parents don't want me to study Japanese bcoz of this :")
My three reasons for learning Japanese:
- Anime without subtitles
- Learn a new language and acquire knowledge (which is always good 😉)
- Traveling (someday) to Japan
SAME THO
Those are my exact reasons too
Yeah, university’s and things like that will be interested in you
Same
Four : bragging to my brothersss
"Why do you want to learn nihongo?"
"To watch anime without subtitles."
Bruh u got me there
lmfao we got caught red handed:
lmao same
Yeah and also visit japan
Same and also because of anime I’m moving to japan
So true😎👌
My reason for learning Japanese is because 10 years ago, I had a childhood friend who was a Japanese. We used to hangout a lot, until she returned back to Japan. Though she spoke perfect english, I still wish to communicate with her in Japanese. It's been 2 years since I've started learning, and I still haven't told her yet. We've kept in touch through out the years, and I'm travelling to Japan hopefully next year to meet her. I'm still at N2 level, but I hope to reach N1 before this year ends
Update: My flight is on June, quite nervous now 😐
That’s an amazing reason. Honestly just reading this made my day, I wish you the best!
@@tiny_tuba9756 Thank you very much! :)
Finally someone who isn't learning japanese for anime... Idk why but these people annoy me
Update on this, I'm going to Japan next year and I still havent told her.
@@GabrielSantos-ru9bx go bag her bro😈
Yall lets be honest that we dont just learn Japanese so that we could use it when we travel to Japan but instead we want to use it to confuse the heck of our relatives, fams, or friends and have that devilish smile after XD
HOW DID YOU KNOW.

Congrats!🎊🎉✨💖
Same here haha
I can read a little!
You should be ! I can read close to nothing-
I really want to learn Japanese to just grow my knowledge and make me feel like I'm accomplishing something as well as indulging my interest in another culture and a new world. I know Arabic since I'm born in the middle east. So I thought that going on a journey to be multilingual might be nice as well. I'm just 14 but I do want to learn a lot and I'm interested in languages.
I'm Chinese, I've been studying Chinese for about 11 years now (I'm 16).
One trick I learned to practice Chinese or Kanji is to just write them as small as possible. You're so focused on trying to write them that you end up focusing on each and every stroke. Use this trick if you want to practice or when you want to improve your handwriting. :)
I like your last name!! Also, I write pretty small already and look forward to learning Kanji later on after I master Hirigana and Katakana >,< I just got to stay committed to do so.
@@soyal__exome4157 Good luck! Also, people sometimes confuse my last name sometimes lol. One time a Japanese person told me that my name meant "lotus(?)" and it took me a while to know they were talking about.
你好呀，我也是中國人 ：)
Benny Ren oooo. What do you recommend to learn the language?
@@soyal__exome4157 I've only really attended weekly Chinese classes so I'm too familiar with other programs. I guess you could try things like Duolingo or watch CZcams videos. For beginners, the hardest thing to learn I think is the basic characters and radicals. They're some of the most important things to focus on first, even knowing a few can help you learn a lot faster. As for grammar and pronunciation, read some books or essays written by Chinese students. Listen to music, watch TV shows and films (I tell myself to do this more but I keep getting distracted by anime lol).
This probably doesn't exactly answer your question but it's more about how you're learning rather than where you're learning.
to be real.. this is one of the better "how i study japanese" videos. it's hella budgeted and anyone with a phone and some paper could do these. really helpfull... and radwimps are fire!
Hello mak! Thank you so much for watching and supporting. I am so glad you find these tips helpful. Best of luck on your studying journey! And yes, Radwimps are fire! Haha. Stay safe always!
Try your local library! Maybe I am lucky because I live in Chicago. The downtown library has like 7 floors. And they have many books for learning Japanese. Hopefully your library does too.
This is more realistic.
me wanting to learn Korean and Japanese but also ended up being lazy ㅜㅜ
but thank you for this, now i want to stop myself for being lazy to learn the things i want.
People should make their notes look organized so they want to look at them more and memorize it!
The main reasons I want to learn japanese
- it's a hecka cute language (in my opinion)
- so I can yell at people and they dont understand me
- so I can flex ●~●
- anime bois
- I just overall really like japanese culture:)
I do hope you do well and can flex on people "3
Yessir Ù-Ú
Ay man if your learning japanese, personally I use this method called the mass immersion approach created by this guy on youtube called MattvsJapan. He has really helped me in drastically improving my japanese really efficiently and this might be helpful for you too.
DiamondKing Diamond tysm I will try :3
DiamondKing Diamond whats the method like?
Why I’m learning Japanese:
Writing system
Culture
Anime
Bragging rights
Same😭well I WANT to learn
me too brother the most part i really want is bragging so i can look cool
@asdf I care but it’s fine if you don’t :)
@asdf ikr, literally no one cares? its so annoying when my friends start to brag about knowing a language, makes me want to stop talking with them
lol same. I'm learning to write tho
Her: Has beautiful reasons for studying Japanese.
Me: I just want to annoy my family and friends. By remarking their cringey jokes! XD
I want to be that one player in a game with the Japanese username.
well you did it
You want to be like in those memes? Lol.
Reasons I wanna learn Japanese
-There’s a 75% chance I’ll move to Japan when I’m old enough :)
So I’m just now finishing out about the government in Japan. Thank for those who informed me. I probably won’t be going unless my family decides.
ily !!!!!!! ?
I'm going there for university in a couple of years and after that I'll probably stay :)
good luck it’s hard becoming a citizen
@@papparappa44 yeah I want to study in Japan but probably not because I'm poor. I don't want to go to Japan if it's just because of anime.
@@ha3537 yeah I was thinking being a citizen in Japan would be hard
"write, write, write and write"
me who literally never writes anything in japanese: 👁👁
I would really recommend learning how to write in Japanese. Once you’ve memorized the symbols, studying gets easier and it’s really, really fun to write ^ - ^
Edit: I know it isn’t necessary… I just find that it has helped me because I’m a sensory learner. Do what works best for you!
Fr
@@mamaluigi6949 writing is pretty different to just using a keyboard. i will barely ever use handwritten japanese and i still memorized the writing systems lol
@@mamaluigi6949 yes.. especially if you don't have any basic writing in this kind of character. As for me I have basic skill to write kanji as I have learned Chinese
it throws me off how people in Japan write vertically and not horizontally like--
Reason I want to learn Japanese
- just because learning a language seems fun
-To impress my friend and family
-to visit Japan one day
-every time I watch an anime that is in sub I don’t have to look at the caption
Lol
I'm still a kid (10 yrs old oof) and I decided I should study Japanese early! So that when I'm a teen already I can become fluent maybe? I wanna learn Japanese cuz
-I wanna be a translator for the governments when i grow up!
-for me to understand jpop
-*Manga and anime ofc*
The younger you are the easier to learn a language! Go for it ;]
oh hell yeah go for it
Good luck!
I'm 11 and I started 1 month ago
@@rishiknandanmadagoni794 I am 11 too .I learned Korean alphabet but now I wanna learn Japanese when I am not even fluent in korean yet .I am going to start learning it now because I heard you can learn a language better as a kid:)
Reasons I wanna learn Japanese.
-Anime
-anime
-more anime
Actually Yes but no
-I wanna learn it so i can flex how many languages I speak. I currently know 3 languages
-I wanna listen to Japanese songs
-The writing is so cool 😎
So much on the anime, I just started but it's entirely Anime-Driven. Now I can put all those hours to good use! If only I watched that many spanish shows...
what are the other languages you know, I speak french and english

"It's impossible to learn multiple languages at once"
My school with French, English and Portuguese*
My mum with Russian*
Me with Japanese*
👁👄👁
It’s not really impossible, just incredibly difficult and not a good idea because you could mix things up between the languages.
Here's a nice article on it: www.brainscape.com/academy/learn-two-languages-at-once/
Edit: Some people don't seem to realize that learning multiple languages as a child is far easier and much more achievable than learning multiple languages as an adult. If you learned multiple languages as a child, it's a different story.

I’m trying to learn Portuguese and Japanese but I speak Spanish so Portuguese is a bit easy for me.
@@esther5855 Heyy I'm learning Spanish! Good luck learning Japanese and Portuguese :)

my reason for learning 日本語 are
•my goal is to learn 8 different languages
•visit my good friend in japan and surprise her with how much i’ve learned☺️
•be more culturally diverse
•AND BECAUSE IMA WEEB 😂
good luck
8 languages that’s a lot. I‘m only speaking two fluently studying one for 2 years now and studying japanese and Dutch for a few months. But 8?! Well good luck
What languages do you speak? I only speak indonesian and english, now I m up to study japanese.
My goal is 3
Dang good luck!!!!
im only learing hiragana and i have yet to learn katakana but dont fret! language learning is not supposed to be stressful, take your time drink some water and continue learning! ♡
Watching your videos made me calm down.. thank you for your efforts! 🩷

her voice is so cute-
for real! I was so impressed!
this is so helpful. i'm mustering my courage to learn japanese back and i feel so close to quitting once again. i will make sure to follow your methods and find my inspiration!
Reasons I’m learning Japanese:
1. Visiting!
2. Planning to go
to school and maybe
move there
3. I love the culture!
4. It’s overall a
beautiful place
Step 1 for every video ive ever seen when someone is learning Japanese: Go to Japan, or live in Japan. Ah yes. Money I never possess
I think it's because these people are more confident in their learning of japanese than your regular person that only uses duolingo or only has JPLT N5. Learning the characters is already halfway through learning the language when it comes to those that don't use italic letters.
It's brought up so often because, most of the time, it's the absolute best option. Being around the language that you're trying to learn helps you make more connections to how tone changes the meanings of the words. It forces you to pay attention and familiarize yourself more
Yeahhh practice writing a page of Japanese a day and watch Japanese childrens learning shows on CZcams helps me a lot
Those reiterating that it’s the best option from an educational standpoint, looking at it in a vacuum, and mischaracterizing her actual comment, you’re avoiding her whole point.
Most Japanese citizens are rascist so I don't think I can go there sadly
Your handwriting had me floooored. It's amazing
Hello Kiki! Thank you! This means so much! ❤️ Stay safe always!
@@LifeofMori what sort of stationary you use for studying Japanese can you please answer
Ture. My handwriting looks like a kid randomly drawing symbol or writing his imagining language. I'm just a beginner though.
Ikr. I have a hard time writing kanji in a smaller way as the other kana since they have more details.
kool love hello! I am using a mechanical pencil (Pilot Super Grip 0.5) and then the notebooks are all from the ¥100 store (Seria). ☺️ Hope this helps!
This video is such an inspiration! Thank you! :)
why i learn japanese:
- easiest foriegn language(my native language(korean) is very similar to japanese)
- i luv its pronouncation
- im language lover
- it can be helpful since im a conlanger
- beautiful writing system(hiragana&katakana)
btw am i only learner who don't really watch anime? lol
Not really, but there are really few people who didn’t attempt to learn Japanese because of anime.
nah lmao
1:23 Wait, you studied only 1 year and 6 months!? You already passed N3 and your hand-writing is very good... It's amazing that you studied so fast.
Thank you for your comment! Means a lot to me! ❤️ I had a mindset when I first set foot to Japan that I will pass N4 on July 2019 and then pass N3 on December 2019. It was stressful at that time since I was juggling work and study but it was definitely worth it. ☺️ Anyway, best of luck on your studying journey! Stay safe always!
@@LifeofMori Thank you for reply! I see... I'm Japanese and I'm studying a foreign language about 1 year. Your video and your comment motivated me! I wish that good luck for your studying journey too! Thanks!
@@LifeofMori damn girl, you're hard working af!
@Derpppo me too tho🤧
@@LifeofMori Is there value in watching anime with English subtitles? Some people say no, some say yes. What's your opinion please. I am just a beginner in Japanese study. With no English subtitles I am unable to understand much. Thanks. Shawn
Reasons I want to learn Japanese:
1. I’m trying to learn more languages so I can travel after the virus is gone
2. I want to be able to understand Japanese songs
3. It’s something to do during my free time
4. I want to move to Japan in the future
Since Ururaka is your profile picture I was expecting the “none subtitles anime”
@@Rabarbaraaa it is a reason but not as important to me than the rest of them :) plus I’m more used to dub since I usually do something else while watching anime

* GET A JOB IN JAPAN SOMEDAY
*TO WATCH ANIME WITHOUT SUB
* TO STUDY AND LEARN TO DRAW TO BECOME A MANGA ARTIST

If u wanna draw ani.e and manga personally I think you should do your fav anime and manga ad well as 90s anime such as dbz or sailor moon
The drawings are cute and are not very hard compared to the extremely detailed stuff
But that's just how I got good. Drawing simpler anime that I was also obsessed with
Haha me too

Ty so Much For this Tip i've Been wanting to Learn Japanese but Didnt know how To find some Tips about it, Until i came Across your Video Ty so much For the Tips!
Mori: i've been studying for over a year and a half and i've passed the test for n3 and n4.
me who's been trying to learn for only a few days: sweating profusely
after drilling through Hiragana and Katakana, I'm beginning Kanji now, and I really have no idea what I'm doing!! I really have no idea where to start, but I'm grateful for encountering this video, it was a surge of motivation lol
Hello alyanna! I just recently read your comment. Thank you so much for watching and supporting! 🤗 It’s really hard dealing with Kanji for the first time. What I did was start with the Kanji’s from the JLPT N5 level. Now I’m studying Kanji’s from both N3 and N2 level. Best of luck on your studying journey. Hope this helps! Stay safe always. ❤️
Life of Mori can you please help me on where to start!?!? So many places to start yet I don’t know 😔 also you’re Japanese sounds really good!
Have a book called nihongo challenge, you can begging for this its n5 and n4 kanji.
I suggest starting by learning radicals. Wanikani has a pretty solid method and the first 4 levels are free without about ~100 kanji. It gives you a really good method you can use even if you can’t pay for the rest of the levels, so I think it’s worth a try
I love the intro music ☺️
Btw this was very helpful thank you 💜
I spent a few minutes admiring the handwriting, i really have to improve it. This video was very helpful ありがとうございます！
my reasons for learning Japanese:
A. I love the culture and traditions (especially kimonos. SO PRETTY!)
B. I plan to move there one day (like everyone else in this comment section)
C. I don’t like English to be honest

E. ...as you guessed...ANIME WITHOUT SUBTITLES LOL
F. To confuse my family
G. bragging rights lol

Why don’t you like English? English is spoken by around 1/6 of the world.

Worst of all nobody gets a choice. Like bruh I’d rather learn Japanese or Korean than learn some language that a lot of us kids hate
@@adelia6590 Ikr! I wish in schools there were teachers of all languages and you could choose what language you want to learn...
OMG WHY IS THIS SO AESTHETICCCCCCCCCC ???!!!! I LOVE ITTTTTTTT
Thank you this helps a lot.. ありがとう！
i’m obsessed with japan- and my dream is to go there some day :)

はい!サーメ

@@favdiana koreaaaaa
Can't wait for your dream to come true so you see the less green reality
Thank you so much for this! I've been studying for about half a year now and I was wondering what more I could be doing to improve. My studying routine is very similar to yours, so I felt very reassured! Plus you showed me some new methods to try too! I'll make sure to keep studying every day. Thanks again!
What did u learn so far? Kanji is the hard part for me..
@@diavens Well I've certainly fallen off of my studying since commenting on this video, but I've learned most of the basics. Hiragana, Katakana, and some vocab/grammar. But I'm slowly getting back into my routine, and that's gonna focus on Kanji!
@@jayceepenny It’s ok to have breaks sometimes ! Studying should never be a pain in the butt.
Lots of love
@@lilyg2526 Thanks so much!💕
@@jayceepenny no problem :))
arigato gozaimasu mori-senpai!!
i appreciate this video and im going to try and use these techniques :D
Thank you for the vid. It really helped 😊👌👍
Latina learning Japanese here lmao- aight I just started learning today (on duolingo 😳). Ima write some of the stuff I know with hiragana :) “くもり” “なつ” “よる” “やさい” “しろ” and “くろ” (which translate too uhhh- “cloudy” “summer” “night” “vegetable” “white” and “black”). I only know about 1/4 of the hiragana alphabet (is that how you call it?). Anyways wish me luck ya’ll ✌️🤪 im bringing takis to school tomorrow if y’all want some 😏😏 my reasons are:
•For flexing (you don’t see latinas speaking Japanese 👀)
•Ill feel better about myself
•I get jealous when I can’t understand someone
•I have no idea where to start but I always like starting fresh
•うんち
You should try Imabi (Website, Lots of vocabulary and grammar explaining) Has helped me alot on understanding Kanji, sentence structure, particles and more. Also use Anki for flashcards, it helps in remembering kanji.
What’s Unchi?
The last point truly shows that you are a woman of culture. 😏
wait but why poop..? i’m confused ;v;
Learning Japanese seems cool! I’m stuck on learning that or Arabic, haha
This is like CZcams is threatening me to practice Japanese by recommending videos like these since I haven't practiced in 2 weeks.
However, I love this video, and remember to keep up the good work! 👍
Your video is very motivated and watching nihango lessons thank you for your video and i download many app for learning Japanese 😊🤗😊
P-please this is so… helpful… cute… aesthetic… SO BEAUTIFUL TO SEE- I CAN SEE THIS VIDEO IN LOOP- LOVE IT🥺🥺💜
I started learning japanese about a week and a 1/2 ago, and i’ve been currently losing motivation for it, but this just reminded and encouraged me to continue! I wanted to learn japanese so I could watch anime without subtitles, and sing some japanese songs that make me happy, thank you for encouraging me again!
Are u still doing it??
@@its_.obsession595 I also want to know dude how's going cuz I also lose my interest on learning Japanese after 3 months
the aesthetic of this video is so cute! i'm a small youtuber and i am interested in learning japanese as my third language. thank you for this video 🌸 otsukaresama desu! (i'm not sure if i use it correctly here)
Hello! You can do it! ☺️ Best of luck on your studying journey! Stay safe always. ❤️
i loved your video, give me inspiration to study more and more english and japanese thank you :3
Point 7: Find inspiration.
Me: That video is already a great inspiration for me!
why I'm learning japanese:
1) something I can do during quarantine
2) I can impress my friends
3) I can travel to Japan
4) I can watch anime without subtitles
I'm pretty sure this is everyone's reasons too
Yup 😐
Yup
i like the culture and learning the different formalities used in Japan, because most countries are just casual, including the one im living right now. Japan just feels.. special to me? But yeah if you work really hard to learn japanese, its surely an achievement worth bragging about!!
My friends tricked me to join japanese club, thats why im here
HEHEH yes.
a few of my reasons to learn Nihonggo is;
1. so that my family wouldn't have to spend extra money for a translator when we go to Japan haha (since i keep bugging them about it)
2. so that i can translate videos/tweets of popular/underrated japanese creators
3. so i can multi task while watching anime at the same time haha
4. so that i can make friends online and communicate with my favorite singers, artists, and seiyuus ^-^
your video helped me a lot! ありがとうございます！今日も明日もがばりましょう！(*^_^*)
Never lose that hunger to learn Japanese. Those are great/valid reasons, if I do say so myself... and I do. Hehehe! Good luck in your language journey!
@@michaelreyes2287 thank you so much! ^^
There's this one Japanese artist that I really like and she's currently making a manga. There were no Eng translation for it. When I told her I hoped there's going to be English translation for it, she responded she couldn't afford to get an accurate one. I was saddened by it so now I'm trying my best to learn it.
@@cherry414 awww, good luck with learning!! lets do our best together! i hope you'll be able to read it soon ^^
@@sakura_socks Yeah hopefully! I would love to give her free translation. I'm also thinking of working in Japan too so let's do our best!! :D
Japanese is the fourth language I’m attempting to study. I can read proficiently in French, and possibly in Spanish. Anyone who thinks they can’t do it, it just takes consistent practice and exposure! Change your phone to your target language, listen to media in that language!
I've just finished watching this video and have loved this video.
I am literally obsessed with the Japanese culture. It’s so pretty and elegant and I really want to live there some day
My inspiration for learning Japanese is:
Watch my favorite romantic movie without subtitles and *cry in Japanese* 😁😂
I like that movie since I was 11 years old and now I'm 16 and I think that gonna be my favorite movie forever😁
Hello vilu isi! That’s great to hear! Would you mind sharing that movie to us? Sounds like a great movie. ☺️ Anyway, best of luck on your studying journey! Stay safe!
Thx Sis. Because of this, I became more enthusiastic about learning Japanese. 😩😩😩 Thxxxx bestie 💘💘💘💘
thanks mori, very helpful
