Two years ago I shared my Japanese learning progress after studying for 2 years straight. Now another 2 years have passed and I haven’t stopped since. In the meantime, I even spent a full year living in Japan.

In this video, I go over some stats that might be interesting: my Anki stats, the books I’ve read, the anime I’ve watched, and a full breakdown of the hours I’ve put into studying so far.

Finally I also talk about the general sentiment I have about Japanese and where the journey will go, eventually.
