I'm like... Near N3, I can comprehend a lot of spoken Japanese, and keep up with vtuber streams sometimes. I can't read well though. Native language is English.

Some holoJP members can't even read common kanji.

My skills are uneven, but I think that's the case for most foreign language learners. I can read a little but not nearly as much as I can listen or even produce.

not within our lifetime, so if you want to consume Jap content straight from the source you need to learn Japanese. believing otherwise is pure cope and you just need to admit you can't stomach the commitment. there's no shame if you can't or don't want to, but stop being sour grapes about it

Fluent in speaking and comprehension. Reading is maybe high school level. Some Kanji I won't understand but can pickup the meaning with context. Writing elementary level.
Native language is English.
I'm lucky that my parents speak fluent Japanese so I learned it the easy way. Respect for you people who learned it on your own.

Thanks, I did do it on my own but I can't read or produce well at all yet. Mostly just listening.

I can understand basic Japanese. I can understand most of what Marine's fast talking(not all), Apex streams of Elu/Chihiro, etc.
But if I go listen to JPs with a lot of slangs/accents, it gets a lot more difficult (ex: Mito, Ange).

Doesn't matter even if Japanese eventually dies. It won't die in my lifetime. Even if it died 20 years from now I would still want to learn it. Even if translation AIs give perfect literal translations in the style that I would personally translate them, it is still more pleasurable to feel the translation happen in my own mind, rather than getting it spoonfed by an app. I want to consume Japanese content. I want to communicate with Japanese people. These are good enough reasons to learn the language. Who cares what the trajectory of the language is? If I get something out of it, it's not worthless for me to learn it. Also nice bait.

You guys must have missed how Sony now basically has a monopoly on the rights to streaming anime outside of Japan.

Just started doing reps a few weeks ago so i'm def in the lowest rank, but i have like 9 years worth of watching subbed animes on my end so i totally can easily pick up some phrases albeit not completely. The kanji reading part and dialect comprehension will definitely be the hardest part but in 5 years tops it will be something to not be afraid of, It will be my fourth language as well so it's pretty exciting.

Not nearly enough as I want. Currently slogging through a book that I enjoy to build vocabulary.
Dialogue is easy - descriptive language is my weak spot. I'm floating around in N3, almost reaching N2.
