Ah, the lifelong old question every Japanese learner has probably asked themselves at one point. Of course, immersion learning has picked up quite a bit in the last few years, but I’m wondering what everybody’s opinions here are. Imo, if you take the time to immerse whilst reading something like a grammar guide and doing finding a way to learn vocab, you can definitely learn from things like japanese-subbed anime. People also chastise the idea of early output, but I feel like you can combine outputting (either regular ass writing or speaking on something like hellotalk) with inputting anime and still get decent results. You learn your stuff from anime and you get natural, conversational input from others so you can differentiate what does and doesn’t sound weird.

It’s impossible to acquire a language without mass amounts of input. If anime is the way you prefer to input, as long as you learn grammar and enough words to make it comprehensible, you can.
