About kuh111578
Initial Goals:

Memorize the hiragana table. Learn at least 30 verbs. Learn some short phrases such as how to introduce yourself. Learn the verb ending conversion table.

Learn Japanese while watching anime:

Find a short to medium length conversation in an anime of your choice, transcribe it to hiragana. Practice reading it aloud. Learn its meaning. Go over the accuracy of its transcription. Go over the grammar concepts within.

This can be repeated many times as there is always more to learn with each section.

Bonus:

Memorize the katakana table, learn the more common verb/adjective tenses.

日本語は今でも難しい。このまま変らないでしょう。それにしても、ただの趣味に過ぎないから、悪感は無用。自由に話せ、間違ったら笑えばいい。日本語と言う言葉にある可笑しさも多いので、これぐらいの勝手は許されると考えてもらう。

2nd Activity (Listening comprehension continued):

You now have a basic understanding of particles and their governance of the parts of speech. Watch an anime conversation, transcribe it quickly. Identify particles. Examine the English sub translation and attempt to identify the corresponding nouns, adjectives, and verbs. Consequently, identify the implied parts of speech. This is a major factor in understanding the language.

3rd Activity (Delivery):

Don't let Japanese become Latin. The most fun part of learning Japanese is speaking. Try to memorize a lengthy line of dialogue/monologue and deliver it in proper tempo and intonation. Quotable phrases will have lasting usefulness as reference for their contained words' meanings. Example:

おい。

待て。*

じゃまも何も、熱湯頭からぶっかけられようとしているのに、黙って見てるやつ
があるか。

However, readable text is irreplaceable in this regard. Reading texts aloud improves delivery and reading skills.

4th Activity:

I've written a list of sentences using important vocab. Translate them into English (subbing practice :P) as appropriately as you can, also use them as speaking practice.
