Discovered and started to use #WaniKani this week.
-
Just reached #WaniKani level 17
(I still have quite a few vocab items from 16 to go through before I really start 17.)
Been reading the most basic free graded reader books at https://tadoku.org .
I've just yesterday started to try and read some news on #NHK Easy. I can somewhat understand them. Not with precision, but I can definitely get the gist of them!
I'm also watching #Naruto. Not really as Japanese practice, but actually it's quite nice to be able to recognise the sound of some vocab/verbs. Some simple sentences too.
It's been almost a year since I started #WaniKani. I have just bought the lifetime subscription, which is on the usual Christmas/new year sale. I really love the app, and it has helped me progress so much in a year...
I'm nearly finished with level 17.
-
Reached #WaniKani level 18.
Picking up some speed again lately. Before Japan I was consistent at 10 and after I've been at 5. Back to 5+ new items per day, up to 10 (actually more than 10 sometimes if I see some simple vocab).

Today I picked up #Genki for the first time in probably 3 months

#WaniKani level 19, here I am!
Been using this site for the first time to complete Genki exercises. I get autocorrection, which is nice (not perfect), you get to do it on the go without carrying the book, and it helps with exercises that you'd normally need a colleague for.

#Genki 第六課 , Te-form. Interesting and useful. But lord help me know all the different endings

This #WaniKani example sentence is me!
"起きたらすぐにワニカニをするようにしてたんだけど、それが一年間も続いたんだ！すごくない？でも、まだレベルは１９だよ。
I decided to do WaniKani right after waking up, and I kept it up for a whole year! Isn't that amazing? But I'm still only at level nineteen."

Just reached #WaniKani level 20!
"Welcome to Level 20. Kind of a milestone, if I say so myself. It’s also the last level in the “苦 painful” category too. I wonder what’s next
When you finish up Level 20, you’ll know quite a bit.
- 98.8% of the JLPT N4 kanji (as well as 100% of the JLPT N5 kanji).
- 65.94% of the JLPT N3 kanji.
- The amount of kanji a Japanese 3rd grader should know (and 70% of what a 4th grader should know).
- 87.03% of the kanji on NHK Web Easy.
- 76.92% of the kanji on the average Japanese Wikipedia articles."

#WaniKani "Level 21. Out of the 苦 levels and into the 死 levels."
Should I fear what's coming?

#WaniKani level 22 here I am!
がんばれ！
Very recently I tried do listen to ドラえもん in Japanese, without subtitles. I'm bad at listening, but I get some things, which is nice.

I've started #WaniKani 502 days ago! Studying Japanese everyday since then.
I'm reaching level 23 soon.

#WaniKani level 23, I've arrived!
"I don’t know if you realized this, but you’re getting close to the halfway mark."
Eh, still a bit far.
I'm still slacking off on grammar...

I've finished #WaniKani level 23 yesterday. Onto level 24.
I like to follow song lyrics in Japanese as I listen. I'm not able to read everything, but it's still enjoyable and I get an idea of some unknown kanji and their meaning.
When I'm not looking at lyrics, I find it good listening practice (my weakest point for sure).
Just now I was listening to 君に触れるだけで , from るろうに剣心 .
I'm still utterly lagging behind grammar. But hopefully I can change that a bit in the next few days.

When I finish level 24, I'll be at 40% of #WaniKani completion.
Yesterday I reviewed and practiced some grammar. Yay me.

Finished #WaniKani level 24.
I'm making an effort to study/practice grammar every day and go through #Genki. This week's been the best in a long time.
I'm also about to drop #Duolingo. It never brought me much value, and I'm feeling it's just wasted time, even if only ~5 minutes a day (can invest those is grammar). It's a chore. Today I jumped to the end of a section and tried a lesson in the new section. It was more interesting in terms of grammar. I'll probably do a few more jumps to test myself sometimes, but I'll not try to keep a streak any longer.

Dropping #Duolingo is one of the best things I did lately.
I'm now studying grammar multiple times per week, with #Genki. I study a lesson, then do reviews as needed, and complete the exercises.
I love not having the stress to complete Duolingo daily by midnight. I can actually learn things and improve multiple times per week. And if I slide past midnight that's totally fine, it still counts.
