• How to use SFromA (Study from Anime)

A writer who is Daruma makes a lot of study guide from Anime(we call SFromA).
I explain what is SFromA,
Why to study Japanese from Anime,
how to use these SFromA?

Why study from Anime???

It is important to understand studying Japanese is super hard.
Therefore, you need to keep studying.

How to keep studying??
Answer is from Anime!!
because it is fun, and fun is helpful to keep your focus!

Moreover, there are many kinds of Anime in the world.
Japanese Anime has high quality,
and every character has a different voice actor who is real Japanese.
It means you can listen to real Japanese.

Anime character is your teacher!!!

What is for SFromA???

SFromA means “Study from Anime”,
Daruma creates SFromA with 3 different levels.

level 1= Japanese words (super basic such as subject and adjective, and short sentence)
level 2= Japanese words (pick up the words from the sentence), you just memorize it.
level 3 = Japanese sentence (mix. It means subject and verb.) or connection words.

How to use SFromA??

There is two ways Daruma suggest to use SFromA.

First↓↓ （If you never watch the Anime which is Daruma suggest it.）

Second ways.↓↓ (you already watched Daruma suggests Anime!!!)

Again, you can’t learn everything about Japanese in one day,
so you need to keep studying with fun!

SFromA is super helpful…
Now, you can start to check anime which you want to study!

Which anime do you like?

You can choose Anime.
Daruma who is author publish as many as possible for new one!

  ⅱ, Pronunciation map for Japanese (possible to download)

Do you want to study Japanese?

There are a lot of styles for studying Japanese,
however, every style needs to know about Japanese letter like alphabets “a b c d”.

Here, I teach you Japanese letter!

Japanese style

There are three basic Japanese style which are hiragana, katakana, and kanji.

Hiragana is like 「あ　い　う　え　お」→level 1
katakana is like 「ア　イ　ウ　エ　オ」→level 3
kanji is like 「達磨　笑顔　携帯」→ level 10

In my opinion, when you study Japanese,
you should study from hiragana first because
hiragana and katakana are super similar.
Kanji is super different,
but you should know that hiragana is a basic Japanese style.

EX)達磨＝だるま＝ダルマ
Kanji → hiragana → katakana

達磨

Kanji has a lot of means and different pronunciation. It is hard to memorize it even Japanese!!
So, don’t worry, some Japanese can’t read kanji because they did not study.
In other words, when you study, you can read it!

How to start studying Japanese???

From here, I teach you how to study Japanese from zero.

Japanese has 5 basic letter that I show you top of the page “あ　い　う　え　お”

あ　＝　pronounce “a” This “a” pronounce “Apple”
い　＝　pronounce “i” This “i” pronounce “it”
う　＝　pronounce “u” This “u” pronounce “Uver eat”
え　＝　Pronounce “e” This “e” pronounce “egg”
お　＝　pronounce “o” This “o” pronounce “onion”

These “a” “i” “u” “e” “o” need to pronounce every Japanese.

Next,

↑↑you should remember these words first.
Then, you can know what is Japanese pronunciation.

I recommend you copy this one before start

If you want to write down to study, you can copy this one and search in Google!
→あいうえお 練習

Pronounceation graph. I also recommned copy this one.

This youtube is I recommend for Japanese first learners.
It is cute and it is easy to understand!!!!

Next step after you copy the Japanese letter graph…

After you copy or open the new tab for the Japanese pic, you can see it when you study Japanese.
There are two ways to study Japanese.

1, you try to listen to the words that I pick up from Anime. It means, you should listen carefully to anime, and you find it. It helps you make a better Japanese listener.

2, If you want to try to write down, you should write the words many times.
It is helpful to remember which letter is what and how to pronounce.

If you have a question, just comment here! If I can help you, I will response it.
Keep studying Japanese everyday. Everyday!

Your next step.

I think you already read this one.

Next is “SFromA 3, How to use Study form Anime?“

If you want to skip and start studying,
You can choose Anime.

What you can know from this page…?

1. Anime is good for tool to study Japanese.
2. Who is Daruma.
3. What Daruma did?

Hello. I’m Daruma.
I studied English from Anime, and Anime is helping to grow up my English skill dramatically.
Thus, I though you can study Japanese from Anime.
I make a Japanese study book(SFromA), so you can speak and write Japanese!!!

Why waste of time just watching Anime??

Because if you check SFromA before or after watching Anime,
you can speak and understand Japanese.

Also, SFromA is easy to understand,
and don’t need a lot of time.
When you watch Anime, it is fun.
If you can learn Japanese same time, it is super good idea, isn’t it?

Who is Daruma

After graduating high school in Japan,
Daruma decided to go to America.
This time, he couldn’t speak, write, and listen to English.
Really, Daruma did not have any words…

My roommate came to the airport to pick me up,
and he said: “What is your name?”

I said “YES”

I was the level like this!
So, whoever has a potential to speak, listen,
and write Japanese if you have motivation for it!

I really couldn’t hear any words when I came to America.
Now, I am better than this time.

When Daruma English change??

I can say when I studied English from Anime,
my English skill dramatically growing up.

Before I do SFromA,
I studied from the English book.

It is hard, and It is not interesting…
So, I stopped studying English even I need it.
If a person studied from the book,
a person will be able to get a high score in the English Test.
I think not for speaking or listening.

After 2 months,
I finish to study English in America…
and I couldn’t speak English, so I don’t have friends.

I don’t care I can get a high score or not.
Just, I want to speak and understand English!!!!

If you want to speak Japanese,
or you want to understand Japanese,
it is important that keep studying.

What Daruma accomplish?

I went to America with no knowledge about English, but
I graduate university with 3.5 and I got scholarship from university.

Also, I am going to get MBA in United, States.
My English skill from Anime. It is real!
