WaniKani literally yesterday when I hit level 20: “drilling is no longer sufficient; get your ass in front of some Japanese text and fucking read. it’ll be ugly and you’ll probably be figuring out the grammar on the fly, but it is important to put this knowledge you crammed into your brain into use”
it’s good incentive to keep reading, certainly
and it’s nothing against the scanlator because I know they did a good job with the other title they’re working on
I have a digital corpus to read in Japanese with a scanlation to compare at the end of each chapter, though, which is good practice!
