For me it started as a weeb thing. I wanted to learn Japanese for the sake of anime, but it quickly changed. Now, I learn it because I find the language itself fascinating, and how it works with their culture.

I myself usually pick up shows partway through a season and catch up. So far, I’m keeping my eye on are Mushoku Tensei and Uchi no kaisha no chiisai senpai no hanashi.

I’m using the Moondrop Aria Snow. Not to expensive, and they sound pretty good if you ask me.
