I’m still in Season 3 but looking ahead I would have to agree with everyone else; TF will give you a great basis in Japanese and would probably be considered A2/B1 level on the CEF. If you were going to Japan I think you’d do fine for basic conversations and getting your point across (with the help of charades and pictures when needed.) I say this as someone who speaks another foreign language, Korean, at a A2/B1 level and has been able to get around the country (city and rural) as a tourist pretty well.
As Joel said, acting out the word while whispering it to yourself works…although it will also make you look a bit odd. If you have a friend who’s also studying Japanese, setting up a study session with competition will help as well. I had one arrangement (learning Korean) where if I couldn’t remember a target amount of vocab, I’d end up buying my partner a drink.
