Rhythm – Cute user icon! Welcome to the forums. :) I’m glad you decided to learn Japanese. Hopefully it will help you out. At least you have motivation to return to Japan! That should help you be consistent with your studies.

Welcome and good luck!

Hi Deryck , welcome! Kanji… it depends on how fast you study, whether or not you will outpace the lessons. Between the kanji lessons here and completing RTK, I feel I have a very solid base on which to continue learning kanji and vocab.

Good luck with your studies!

Sarah,

Welcome, welcome! That’s alright that you have no idea how you got the idea of learning Japanese. Just stick with it now that you’ve found it! :)

Welcome again and good luck with your studies!

Haven’t seen it but I’m curious now. Let me know what you think when you get your hands on it.

Howdy Scott. Welcome to the forums! How great that you are in Japan and learning Japanese. :) Funny story about the yakisoba.

Good luck with your studies!

I’m vegetarian/vegan but I’m afraid I can’t help much. I’ve heard it’s getting easier to be vegetarian or even vegan in Japan; it just takes some effort. I know there’s a blog all about it… let me see if I can remember…

Here’s one of them – http://veganjapan.blogspot.com/

And another article (great blog all around btw) – http://www.justhungry.com/followup-report-being-vegan-japan

Good luck!

Howdy Neil. Welcome to the forums! How cool that you’ve already been to Tokyo. What was your favorite part of the visit?

Welcome and good luck with your studies!
