Current Level: A0 but I knows somewhere between a dozen to 50 random phrases here and there and I learnt hiragana and katakana once upon a time but I've since forgotten half of it.
Goals: To get my listening to a B1. It would be wonderful if I could get a level where I can watch Terrace House/a random Studio Ghibli film and understand the main gist without any subtitles/to have a comprehension of 70% of what it being said.
How: The third three weeks will be dedicated to going through as much of dialogue sections of the remaining 234 episodes on Japanesepod101 and creating Anki cards with the audio at the front and the Japanese phrase with the English translation and explanation if needed on the back. By 21st August, I would like to have finished going through over 200 episodes on the Japanesepod101 site to make the transition to native material not as painful/challenging.
Then the last three weeks will be dedicated to spending over 3 hours on various subs2srs decks and 60-90 minutes of extensive listening of Terrace House, Haikyuu!! and some Studio Ghibli films. I don't expect to finish going through all the cards in every single subs2srs deck. I have the subs2srs deck of Totoro, Whisper of the Heart, Mushishi,
