Hi, I am Kshitij Sharma. I am from India and my Japanese Level is Beginner. I love Anime and Japan. I want to learn Listening and Spoken Japanese so I can watch Anime in original Japanese language and I also want to visit Japan. So that is why I am here. I hope I can be fluent in Spoken Japanese.

Introduce yourself and share a pic of something Japanese you own or something Japanese that you're interested in! Feel free to explain why you want to learn Japanese or what you like about Japan. Also, feel free to post any Japanese language questions you have. I'd be glad to answer them! As for me, I love learning Judo. Have you ever tried it? And I love Japanese literature, such as Kokoro by Natsume Soseki. Have you read any Japanese novels? I also really enjoyed Cowboy Bebop when it came out! Not the live action Netflix version!
