Ahhh I'm frustrated.,there are 100's of LN out in internet, we're you can download with one click. And here I am can't read that god damn Japanese. When ever I try to translate using Google translator, it makes my eyes bleed. How can a Google translator be that bad.
So 3 days ago, I thought "enough is enough" I'm gonna conquer that freaking language and start learning hiragana. To my surprise, the pronunciation is identical to my native language . And I learned 4 columns and their tentens(so totally it's 8). Then when I looked at the future contents, it feels like mount everest. I will push ahead as long I can.
God why Japanese is so though.
I Even had a opportunity to study Japanese in my college, instead of Japanese I choose French, freaking French. And I was sleeping majority of that class. Thanks to my teachers kindness and fear for getting paycut(if certain % of student didn't pass then teachers get severe pay cut and backslash) I somehow passed.

Well, I remember when I started learning Japanese, it was pretty tough. I thought about giving Korean a try after getting fluent in JP but Korean feels even harder than japanese.

Get hit by ur local truck-kun and pray it "isekais" u to Japan. Once u isekai, u can learn the native language instantly (or so I've heard; check with ur local gods).

It's really really really annoyingly hard in the beginning, but if you stubbornly stick with it, it eventually gets better. But it's going to be painful and suck until then, for quite some time. It's normal, don't be discouraged by this.

You need to work on it a little every day, don't just go all out to start and burn out after a week. Make it into a habit, work (yes it's work) on something every single day. Then one day you'll realize you're reading a few sentences without any lookups, a chunk of text, almost a whole screen... it sneaks up on you.

Then you realize you have a whole mountain of novels you can read and want to share with others, and then the frustration of creating good translations (a separate skill from reading) sets in...

I know the pain as well. I’m trying to learn Japanese and it’s quite hard to memorize everything. My method is to cry and then continue on

     Its not your fault, its the crazy history of Japanese writing. For years they just coped the Chinese and they to fit it with their own language kinda like Koreans.  ( Keep in mind even though the writing system is the same, the spoken language is totally different, bonkers so there is both Chinese way to read and Japanese pronunciation). Unlike the koreans who got rid of the system, they decided hey lets add our own swiggly symbols by nobles. Thus hiragana was born. Then they met the dutch and were like how we add these weird Western words because he cant write in Kanji or hiragana, let invent and totally different symbols for same stick. Thus Katakana was born so you are basically learning three writing system because some lazy ass doesnt know when to simplify like the Koreans.

what's tenten? "? or °?
speaking of japanese, I learnt hira and kata to read song titles.
but I can only read, barely comprehend.
the only upside is that chinese is my mother tongue and so I can barely read kanji.
