They said not at all. I would have before to learn inglish

and I like to listening the word KAWAI! I love this word! ^_^

I learned a few words,it s fun too bad I can t even make a phrase

i generally pick up a few words here and there after hearing it for the millionth time
but i also get a "feeling" of what the characters are saying just because i hear it a lot, even if i dont know exactly what they're saying

I use anime to remember my lost japanese knowledge .

Yes I do,because I very like anime and watching it I learning few japaneses word.

I never try to do it, but I always end learning some "quotes", it is a natural process.......

I try to, but I don't think I retain much. It's really hard to do that with Bleach... well for me. I just learn from websites.

After watching animes frequently i've picked up a bit. Certain "quotes" and different ways of referring to oneself like watashi, boku etc. It's fun learning a new language(:

Alittle...not that it is wrong or anything. Sometimes it helps to hear the language to be able to learn it.

yes I do, I had a course of Japanese but it was in a short time, but for example I learn the word "Oyasumi" that means "good nights" by watching anime

I got interested in anime because I was interested in Japan so I already knew a lot before I started watching anime. I taught my self from books and they all said that you should pratice with real people but if you can't you should watch movies. So I watch anime to get the rythem of the speech down.

When I'm watching anime, I'm not really focusing on the acual 'learning japanese' part, but sometimes it just happens that I learn japanese automatically. Sometimes good words, sometimes bad, sometimes words I'll never use (like eien, tsubasa, gohan, doushite, etc. etc.). But I'd say watching anime/japanese shows is a good way of learning :3

I think I do, sometimes even without noticing. It's natural I think.. It's the same with english when you're watching english movie, right?

Hmm i would like to learn japonesse:D and i realized that at first i did't learn them intentionally,but now i try to learn some words

Yeah I do.

Yes, somehow. Some commonly used words and phrases in animes are already saved in my memory, after all these years of watching. I actually also try to learn whole sentences and such when I am in the mood for it.

I would like to learn Japanese and understand the animes as if I where listening my own language because the voices translanted are quite bad and not so funny.
I have to resign with the subtitles...

i would like to learn Japanese. and every now and then I shout "shut your mouth" at school sometimes and I aalways get strange looks.
oh well.

Yeah , sure i kind of pick a few words now and then, after you listen some of them for a while, you sort of know what they talk about without subtitles, some phrases and greetings mostly.
