This is a book dedicated to answering the question of how to learn Japanese to fluency by extensively reading and listening to native Japanese language materials like anime and manga. If you are looking for a basic Japanese for beginners textbook that teaches Japanese kanji, vocabulary, and grammar, you will not find it here. But if you are struggling with the question of how to learn Japanese more effectively or if you have trouble speaking Japanese, why not try something new and different? Half of the people who see the title to this book might be thinking, "Learn Japanese by watching anime? What a load of crap!" Such a thing certainly sounds like a crazy pipe dream that a great number of anime fans share. And if you watch anime with English subtitles like most people, Japanese fluency will remain merely a dream. You will not learn Japanese outside a small handful of basic words. If you turned off the English subtitles, however, you would be taking your first steps towards a successful Japanese language learning program. Of course, this is not the only step either. The following steps contained within this book describe a fascinating process of how anyone can learn to speak Japanese fluently through mostly reading and listening to native Japanese language materials. Inside of this book is a system that allows you to learn and never forget thousands of new Japanese kanji, vocabulary words, phrases, and grammar structures that you encounter from any Japanese language source of your choice. This includes anime, manga, dramas, movies, videos, music, video games, visual novels, and anything else that uses the Japanese language. Whether you are at the basic Japanese for beginners level or intermediate levels, use this book to help you learn Japanese to fluency faster and easier starting today!

Good book, not a perfect one
The book is awesome and teaches you a few tips. You don't really kind of need it because you have to learn Japanese first to understand the book and the book itself is suppose to teach you Japanese. Doesn't make sense but good book and definitely recommend.

So Helpful!
I could have saved hundreds of dollars if I had known about this book sooner! I have taken formal, expensive second language acquisition courses that took weeks to cover the same principles found in this book (and the courses weren’t even specific to Japanese like this book is)! Read this book and do what is says, the strategy inside has helped refocus my efforts for becoming fluent in Japanese.

A Basic Overview of Language Study Techniques
Much of the information in this book is available for free on the internet. Consider this before making a purchase. It is heavy on general advice and light on specifics. Although researchers and polyglots such as Krashen are mentioned briefly, their recommendations and findings are largely hybridized with more traditional study methods. If you’re looking for a specific program to follow, this book is not it. If you’re starting out and seeking general information and advice about how to study Japanese, or any language really, this might be a fair selection, especially if you already have access to the title through Kindle Unlimited.

Teaches common mnemonic techniques that most people don’t know about.
The book uses common mnemonic devices to help someone learn a new language and it’s always nice to reinforce and strengthen those techniques. I highly recommend giving this book a read if you’re trying to learn Japanese or any language as it’s techniques can be implemented in any language.

Ensina boas formas de estudar a Língua Japonesa
Este livro foca-se em como estudar a língua japonesa a partir de material que a utiliza de forma nativa, da qual anime é o maior exemplo. A ideia base é muito simples: não usar legendas, ou usar legendas só em japonês. Este livro ensina a fazer isso de forma produtiva e inteligente, e demonstra como isso é possível mesmo para principiantes. Se quiseres saber mais a detalhe como é possível organizar estudos desta fascinante língua ao redor desse conceito, então este livro pode ser para ti! Até agora tenho estado a gostar e a achar interessante.

Luoghi comuni ed approssimazioni
Non si può definire un libro, quanto un insieme di luoghi comuni e consigli scontati. Inutile e superficiale. Del tutto insulso e anche molto superficiale. Da qualche link e spiega come imparare il giapponese senza un esempio pratico o altro.

Simply awesome!
I already knew some of the technics that are taught in this book but I never realized how to put it all together to make my Japanese learning faster and more efficient. With lots of examples, useful links and tips this is probably one of the best books I've ever bought because it's not only for Japanese learning but anyone can apply what's taught here to learn any language they'd like. It just changed some parts of my learning life forever!
