Welcome to the “Listen Every Single Day” Challenge, Summer 2023 edition! :beach_umbrella: :sunny: A little history: Last summer, @KJules had the awesome idea to start a Listen Every Day Challenge , where we challenged ourselves to listen to something in Japanese every day. This was inspired by the a…

I ended up not doing a very good job of listening during the challenge, but still enjoyed seeing people’s updates and stole some good channels :laughing: Wanted to post a little quality of life update though: I had been putting off making a new japanese youtube account for a really long time becau…

This is me too feeling like it would be too much of a hassle signing up for a YouTube jp account although I live in Japan currently. I have stuck to a lot of language learners’ podcasts on my original account and watch movies or dramas on Netflix to watch native content.

First episode of “Burn the House Down” on Netflix. While there was tons of vocabulary I didn’t know, I understood a lot of the episode still and I am hella intrigued. It’s one with high production value (it’s so clean and pretty) and while I don’t have much interest in a lot of Japanese dramas sadly…

YouTube suggested a new channel to me recently so I thought I’d check it out! [５min-Easy Japanese talking. 昨日、なにをしましたか？【comprehensible input】] I think I understood everything, which I think is a first for a video (I might have missed a word or two) - but, progress! Having the pictures …

Since my last post I finished 妊娠カレンダー (loved it), and watched some more Burn the House Down. Really close to the end now. I really want to start another audiobook asap, but I have so many books already in my currently-reading pile. I was lucky in that 妊娠カレンダー was both short and very readable, but t…

Sep 8, Fri of Week 11 of Summer Q3 2023 :beach_umbrella: YUYU, 2 new episodes Sep 9, Sat Kurzgesagt 2 episodes Sep 10, Sun YUYU, 2 new episodes Perhaps more amount and quality for the next month (challenge). Anyway, more time and resting is important. Also, I wouldn’t just fill with anything…

Watched the latest video from Speak Japanese Naturally: [[Eng Sub] Japanese Listening Practice | Visiting Dogen's Zen Temple] About visiting a zen temple! The scenery is real pretty and the temple is super impressive so it was a little distracting :melting_face: I could follow some of…

I rewatched 消えた初恋 (for the 4th time) with Japanese subtitles. 6 episodes yesterday and the other 4 this morning. While there are still tons of vocabulary I don’t know, I have definitely improved my listening and while my speaking is shit I am still proud of this fact.

I watched the latest vid from Akane: [【日本語の会話】カフェで店員さんと話す／千葉Vlog] About conversing and ordering stuff at a cafe. At first I was like, yeah let’s do this! But then not even a full minute in and the cafe person starts speaking and I am hopelessly lost. Though the second waitress that ser…
