As excellent as the Absolute beginer lessons series. There must be something interesting in the way you teach that other channels don't have but I couldn't tell you exactly what it is. Anyway You have got that thing that makes your channel better. I only watched the Absolute beginer series so far and I am glad to see that the rest is as good. It means it wasn't just luck. You definitely teach verry well. I am improving my Japanese and that is partly thanks to your work. Keep it up! :D
FiveADay Kanji I use your chanel for the kanji learning so I couldn't judge others but when it comes to grammar I have nothing to add from what is written above. The absolute beginer series fits exactly to me. These are perfect lessons (organised, starts from A to..., easy to understand, the vocabulary she teaches is so usefull and linked to the vocabulary from previous lessons,... But to be honest, the thing I like most is that she is a native speaker that you know you can rely on: she teaches you the grammar differently from books or University teachers tanks to that. I got used to learning partly with her, with your Chanel and with another French speaking chanel that fits also perfectly to me. I only watched her Beginer series and a couple other videos of her content that are also great but to which I could't stick ( I couldn't tell you why... Even if her kanji videos are also great, I think the way you intriduce them is definitely better ) I also think that I should stick to your Chanel for kanji because it is more complete and the tips you are giving are so useful! Each chanel that I have chosen for my learning is better at some point than the others. At the begening I tried every chanel than I had to choose ( I found yours later on ^-^) and now I got used to these 3 one only :/. But that is a good thing! These days (since september) I couldn't continue studying both Japanese and my University lessons but I ll go on with my japanese in december. So there is no real reason why I have only 3 favourit japanese chanels exept that I got used to them so hard that now I can't bear using another content. I have never said I liked Misa's Kanji content better than yours if that is what you thought. XD Actualy when I wrote the previous comment I thought I was going to use both her Kanji content and yours but I changed my mind few days later.
FiveADay Kanji If you want to know that you should ask in every comment of your videos. "Hope you liked it, please let me know how I could imrpove my content down below." :) I personaly like your videos because it is quick and there is a tip that helps me to study. Now a good way to improve your content would be to regroup some kanji in one video. Kanji that are linked together for exemple, kanji that are gathered in a topic video. You could also make them more alive by adding voices, oral explaination instead of a texts (because some people revise better when they are told things). I definitely think that you would touch a wider public by making your content more "alive". Maybe some people don't like the studying atmosphere that is set in your videos. That is personaly what I like most but I could understand that some people who come on YT to study prefer a funnier content so that they forget that they are studying. The closer you are from your public, the wider it will be. Now I know it requiers lots of work to get to it but it would definitly make your chanel grow. I am not saying that your videos don't requier lots of work, this would be fals as you are uploading a lot and you probably have the most complete kanji content on YT. The problem is that you found a really good way to present kanji (short videos, good tips, kanji presented one by one) That is really good! But as I can see you are looking for any betterment that would help you fit a greater demand. It is hard for me to tell you what to change because it already fits me but I understand your frustration. You could also try to think as someone that is looking for a funny way to learn and your tips are often funny so you could make them more important in your videos. Maybe funny is not the word but I think the tips of your videos are at this point what make your videos alive. Finaly you should try to see what's positive in Misa or any other japanese chanel's video because as I told you in my previous comment, I think every chanel as something special that makes it different or better than the other at some point. You can't copy them but try to make your videos richer tanks to these little things that you find in other contents and that could inspire you. To recap, for me, improving your content would be making your videos more alive, grouping kanji in topics videos to help you reach that goal and try to keep a short format (maybe two or three times longer wouldn't make it "long" or borring) and keep the great tips that you give or try to make them the most important part of your videos because for me it is the heart of your content. Also try to look at other contents, how they manage to be attractive, alive, different from others,... and addapt it to your kanji videos. So there it is. I hope this helps you at least a little bit but do not forget to ask your community how to improve thanks to the comment section. This would give you a better idea of what is to change and what is good to keep.
I was so confused about how to read the Kun and On readings and you cleared it up so fast and quickly. Your videos rock, I adore you, thank you so much!
This is the best kanji video ever!!I have been learning japanese for the past 3 months.Everytime I try to learn the kanji with various strategies, new books,videos,flashcards,etc.. I get fed up with them!You have just nailed it!Its so easy to learn this way..cant wait for the next videos!!
@@mika4444 Hello. Saw your comment so throught to put some pointers. It's just something I am following 1. Learn hiragana and katakana. It's required as it's the base and most of the reading materials will have furigana (hiragana for kanji ) which will help you to read it if you don't knw the kanji yet. Believe me it takes less time to memorize it. 2. Since , it's difficult for us to practice conversation. I don't have any japanese frnds. So, it's definitely difficult. We have to find alternative. Write journals. Like simply what you did today . What you like n dislike anything. 3. Read . A lot . It's tedious in the beginning but it will help to get the flow and more vocabulary. 4. Go through grammar. I feel it's important because if you say smthn else . It kind of changes the meaning of sentence. Go about it slowly. Just like we learnt in English ( we had so much grammar right) 5. Kanji - the dread 😅 . I mostly learn it by stories. I read novels. In general I remember stories better. So I make up a story for a kanji. When I encounter a kanji, I remember it by forming a stories with each elements in it. 6. Listen songs. It will be difficult at first if the songs are fast. I mostly listen soothing anime songs like omoide poro poro, or howls moving castle. Sometimes I find some words I dnt knw. After searching I get the meaning. So I can get the context. 7. Make your notes obviously. Go through them. Form your own sentences with new words you learnt. 8. Don't feel demotivated . It takes time to learn something new. Enjoy while learning. Watch animes, movies anything which you like related to Japan. These are some of the things I follow. All the best :)
@@mika4444 Shugoi ( wow) !!!You are already ahead of me. I am currently working in India😅. I do regret not starting learning early. But ya I want to visit Japan after this pandemic ( kind of a dream). Somehow I was fascinated with their culture, the way they speak, usage of gestures. Evn their music, it's so soothing. I was into anime bit late. Started 2 years back. It motivated me to learn it. Always wanted to learn a new language. So chose Japanese 🙂 Oh no I am not that fluent. I find it hard sometimes to understand when it's fast. Can't make out the words. Still a long way to go. But ya definitely worth it. You have a good dream . Hope you achieve it. Ganbatte !!!
@@madhusmita9018 hehe arigato :)) we will definitely achieve our dreams. i hope you visit japan after this pandemic. and good luck for future. and gambarimasu !!!
Misa, I cannot thank you enough for helping me out of my procrastination and lazy methods which I used to study Japanese. Because of you, I feel like I can really do this. Thank you!
I’m so glad to FINALLY have an explanation for the kunyomi/onyomi! I’ve been blindly trying to memorize Kanji recently and I’ve been scared to do it for so long because of kanji having multiple meanings. This was easier than I thought, especially when furigana will be common once I can read children’s books/basic manga. I will concentrate on the meanings now, but having your readings as examples was really nice. Ah yeah, and I made it to the end, it was a very good length. :)
The thing about YT videos I like (for me at least I guess) is that once I start one, even if only out of curiosity, I tend to watch the whole thing. Now, there are various projects and plans I have to learn Nihongo, but it is a quality of a procrastinator like me to delay or avoid starting anything on any given day. But watching RUclips videos is PART of the procrastination process, and watching Misa's videos is like a whole day's worth of Japanese instruction!
I dont use the word Freakin very often. But you...are a mother freaKin genius. Everything was beautifully explained, and beautifully illustrated. I learned so much from this. You know your stuff and are remarkably skilled at conveying that information so that total novices can understand. Keep up the good work.
Having tried learning to read kanji multiple times in my life and going through many videos, nearly every one of them tells you how to learn to read kanji, but never actually teaches you to read individual kanji. This video is a godsend and serves as some relief from all the kanji madness. Still blows my mind how intricate the whole process is.
I'm from Spain and I just started to learn japanese. I don't have any money so I can't go to a languaje school, that's why I decided to learn on my own and just found your videos. I think they are very helpful and your teaching is very clear and easy to understand. Thanks a lot for your work and I hope I can write you a comment in Japanese in the near future!
Made it to the end :) This was fantastic! I've never learned kanji so fast :) please make more videos for the beginners kanji series they would help a lot
さいごまでみたよ。 This videos are impeccable. Wonderful job with instruction. My Japanese teacher, didn't tell me about the two readings, and how to read them like you did. Look forward to your next videos.
So we use kun-yomi if the kanji isnt used in a compound. But if we use hiragana, we will use on-yomi? :D idk if i said that how i wanted to but thanks for helping me anyway !
Misa Sensei, You are the first person who has ever helped me make sense of kanji. I have been in Japanese language school and we are expected to just memorize the readings and the stroke order, but no one has ever explained to me what the Konyomi and onyomi readings are for, until your video. I also had no idea when to use each one, so your explanation of compound words vs. phrases with hiragana is just amazing. I am so thankful to have found your videos! Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication in teaching Japanese. 本当にありがとうございます！
Today I found your channel, I am really happy, because you explain naturally and logically Japanese. I have been learning Japanese from 4 years. I really struggle learning Kanjis, but I see you explain similar Kanjis so we can remember them easily. Please keep up your great job, we really appreciate it. By the way, I am from Guatemala. Saludos desde Guatemala.
さいごまでみたよ。 You're the first person who's figured out how to get kanji to make sense to me. Before finding your channel, I had managed to teach myself hiragana and katakana... but kanji was so frustrating it nearly made me quit. Now I can finally start to wrap my head around it. ありがとうございました。
The way you explained that the kun-yomi is usually followed by extra characters and the on-yomi is usually used in compound words clears up so much for me and helped me understand kanji on a base level better than anything I’ve been watching so far. I think that one explanation alone is highly underrated! ミサちゃん！さいごまでみたよ！
Omg thank you for much for this Misa!✨🙌🏻I've been on hold with my Japanese because I didn't know how to start learning kanji but this is a step so thank you very much :)
Doubt it was, she introduces the masu te and teiru endings all under 10 minutes. Those are about 6 months of hard studying and each require about 2 months. This is why people give up so soon.
Gzon Pzor wow this comment was a year ago back when i was studying kanji, i gave up like in a week LMAO it’s been a year tho and throughout the year made a lot of japanese friends and just tried to speak with them and it naturally improved loads. my japanese is already at a conversationally decent level and i can talk about a lotta things with no problems, and my pronunciation was good from the get go because i’ve been watching japanese media since i was so little so i naturally picked up natural pronunciation, the only problem is kanji which i will probably never study again めんどくさいから出来ません。そしてめっちゃ時間かかるwww普通のN5漢字しか全然読めない
@@ralphcarino5672 No wonder you gave up. Not to shit on you or anything, I just dont feel right that this language is introdiced this way. Kanjis are good, masu forms are good, but te and teiru forms shouldnt be in this video.
I watched it till the end and loved it! Thanks so much for this informative and interesting explanation! So helpful for a complete beginner! Was amazing to be able to read a sentence finally and be able to understand! Also loved that you grouped the kanji together! Makes it easy to remember! Arigato gosaimas!
Honestly Misa is the best teacher, SIMPLY watching and practicing during the vocab videos and these videos helps me so so much, and it is more effective than anything else I try to learn from or study.
Wow! Thank you so much for these valuable lessons! Although, I do have a question pertaining to kanji. I am wondering why the kanji's pronunciation is changed when put into a word. For example, the on-yomi of husband is 'hu', however when put into 'daijyoubu', it is said as 'bu'. Also, when 'jin' is changed into 'nin' when put into words such as 'ningen'. This has been of some difficulty lately, and I would be glad to know the reasoning behind this change in pronunciation. Thank you very much!
Very helpful. I like that you present the kanji beginning with the simplest form and then adding one stroke at a time. And your examples of kunyomi and onyomi clarify the uses of the kanji.
Sooo much better than any of the other videos I've waded through. Thanks. Oh by the way your English accent has a cockney ( East London ) touch to it. Nice.
I read the first sentence that has Kanji inside in this video. I've been having problems reading Kanji within a sentence for a while now. You broke it down really well. ありがとうございます先生
Hi, Misa! I really love these kanji videos. I learn so much from your work so thank you so so much from the bottom of my heart! I wish you’d make more of these because you’re the best sensei I’ve found ! Please stay safe and I look forward to learnig more from you. 🥰
I watch till the end. I can't really express how thankful I am for this video, as it helps me a lot. I'm so proud of myself that I managed to pronounce all the exercises correctly 😁 I look forward into watching the next video of this series
Misa, I enjoy your videos and I learn a lot from you. One comment, you say 'vertical' a couple of times in the video and I think you meant to say 'horizontal.'
I really loved the way you show the progression from one basic kanji to the next. Your explanations are clear and concise, easy to follow. Please please PLEASE continue with this!!! おにがいします！！
one of the best if not the best video explaining the kanji. I like how you explain which pronunciation to use and why. I wish there were more videos on kanji like this one. Thanks!
After exhausting all your lessons, I finally came to check out the kanji! There are a lot of complicated rules here, but you make them easier to understand. I really appreciate the effort you put into each video, it helps a huge amount. Keep it up! ありがとうございます！
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO! I've been trying to grasp Kanji for a while now and nothing seemed to work until now. Seriously, THANK YOU. And please-please-please keep this up because I'm desperate and you're the best teacher ever :D
さいごまでみたよ。 All your videos are awesome, I really really appreciate the time you dedicate to it. I've tried to learn some easy kanji with other videos/webs, but yours has been the best so far, easy to understand, fun and easy to remember. ほんとに、 ありがとう ございます!!
I am from Mexico and love everything about Japan. I want to visit or live in Japan one day, it is my life dream and I want to be able to speak and understand the language when i do. Thank you Misa for making these lessons so enjoyable and instructive ❤
This is the first video that made me feel like I might be able to learn kanji, with all the other ones I've seen it looks like such a hurdle. I really appreciate the little exercises too, makes them stick more.
Extremely helpful video. I have been so frustrated and disheartened starting to learn kanji. I have been trying to find good material for the last month with no luck. This video is the exact study tool I have looking. Your video has really brought me back to loving to learn Japanese. ありがとう ございます みさ先生
Excellent explanation of Chinese vs Japanese pronounciation. You also make it easier to learn by the way you build up from a basic kanji. Good work! I'm subscribing!
Ah finally a lesson that deals with groups of similar looking kanji! This is what I've been searching for. Also your examples are really helpful for remembering the kun/on. Thank you!
i am literally so proud of myself for reading a sentence with kanji in it

Doubt it was, she introduces the masu te and teiru endings all under 10 minutes. Those are about 6 months of hard studying and each require about 2 months. This is why people give up so soon.

wow this comment was a year ago back when i was studying kanji, i gave up like in a week LMAO
it’s been a year tho and throughout the year made a lot of japanese friends and just tried to speak with them and it naturally improved loads. my japanese is already at a conversationally decent level and i can talk about a lotta things with no problems, and my pronunciation was good from the get go because i’ve been watching japanese media since i was so little so i naturally picked up natural pronunciation, the only problem is kanji which i will probably never study again
めんどくさいから出来ません。そしてめっちゃ時間かかるwww普通のN5漢字しか全然読めない
@@ralphcarino5672 No wonder you gave up. Not to shit on you or anything, I just dont feel right that this language is introdiced this way. Kanjis are good, masu forms are good, but te and teiru forms shouldnt be in this video.
wow! it is not so intense for me, buuuut I definetly share the emotion 🤗🙏!!!!!
I watched it till the end and loved it! Thanks so much for this informative and interesting explanation! So helpful for a complete beginner! Was amazing to be able to read a sentence finally and be able to understand! Also loved that you grouped the kanji together! Makes it easy to remember!
Arigato gosaimas!
its really useful video...and your ability to teach Kanji in a simple way is excellent....anybody can understand....
Best lesson I've seen. あリがとう!
Made it 'til the end! Much easier explanation than most textbooks. Thank you!
Honestly Misa is the best teacher, SIMPLY watching and practicing during the vocab videos and these videos helps me so so much, and it is more effective than anything else I try to learn from or study.
omg more of these kanji vids please so easy to follow
Misa is easily the best Japanese teacher on RUclips. She makes it seem so easy lol
Wow! Thank you so much for these valuable lessons! Although, I do have a question pertaining to kanji. I am wondering why the kanji's pronunciation is changed when put into a word. For example, the on-yomi of husband is 'hu', however when put into 'daijyoubu', it is said as 'bu'. Also, when 'jin' is changed into 'nin' when put into words such as 'ningen'. This has been of some difficulty lately, and I would be glad to know the reasoning behind this change in pronunciation. Thank you very much!
最後まで見ました！この動画は本当に為になりました。ありがとうみさ先生
I don't know what to say so I just leave a smily face :)
Comparing and explaining with examples of similar kind of kanji makes really easy to understand. Thank you very much for this video.
thank you very much its really helpful and the best kanji video i have ever seen please, please, please make more kanji videos so we can learn more
Very helpful. I like that you present the kanji beginning with the simplest form and then adding one stroke at a time. And your examples of kunyomi and onyomi clarify the uses of the kanji.
Sooo much better than any of the other videos I've waded through. Thanks. Oh by the way your English accent has a cockney ( East London ) touch to it. Nice.
Cheers mate :D haha
This is an excellent channel! I appreciate your help in learning Japanese, it's been a great resource.
*9:21* Something else hanging between legs* Hahaha xD
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂😂
I'm watching this over and over tonight with my notebook to study. Thank you for this video, it's very good.

I read the first sentence that has Kanji inside in this video. I've been having problems reading Kanji within a sentence for a while now. You broke it down really well. ありがとうございます先生

Turn the subtitles off. Pay attention to what happens on the screen, it'll help.
Same...tho I didn't understand much from this video I just got confused
I watch till the end. I can't really express how thankful I am for this video, as it helps me a lot. I'm so proud of myself that I managed to pronounce all the exercises correctly 😁 I look forward into watching the next video of this series
Loved the first video, onto the next ones. Your videos make learning Japanese sooo much easier. どもありがとうがいざいます。

Thanks your videos helped me a lot!
Thank you for making the videos. They are helping a lot with learning how to use and pronounce the kanji. Please keep them up.
Misa, I enjoy your videos and I learn a lot from you. One comment, you say 'vertical' a couple of times in the video and I think you meant to say 'horizontal.'
I really loved the way you show the progression from one basic kanji to the next. Your explanations are clear and concise, easy to follow. Please please PLEASE continue with this!!! おにがいします！！
don't you mean おねがいします? に➡ね
+TheBlaflabla Ah doh! (#_#) That's the one! ごめんなさい！(typical rookie mistake) I was just too excited (*_*).

one of the best if not the best video explaining the kanji. I like how you explain which pronunciation to use and why. I wish there were more videos on kanji like this one. Thanks!
After exhausting all your lessons, I finally came to check out the kanji! There are a lot of complicated rules here, but you make them easier to understand. I really appreciate the effort you put into each video, it helps a huge amount. Keep it up!
ありがとうございます！
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VIDEO!
I've been trying to grasp Kanji for a while now and nothing seemed to work until now.
Seriously, THANK YOU. And please-please-please keep this up because I'm desperate and you're the best teacher ever :D

The simplicity and ease of learning of this are super nice!
I've been searching for a lesson about kanji for beginners and this is the best one
I made it to the end. You did a really good job explaining these. I don’t think I know anyone else who would go this far for beginners, so thank you.
I am from Mexico and love everything about Japan. I want to visit or live in Japan one day, it is my life dream and I want to be able to speak and understand the language when i do. Thank you Misa for making these lessons so enjoyable and instructive ❤
This cleared most of my confusions and I didn't even search for it. ありがとうございます！
Got recommended this video just now. And it's amazing to see how far Misa sensei has come 😌

This progressed and explained so much more effectively than any other kanji video has ever taught me. Thank you!
This is the first video that made me feel like I might be able to learn kanji, with all the other ones I've seen it looks like such a hurdle.
I really appreciate the little exercises too, makes them stick more.
I'm so happy that I found your channel, you're so good at explaining, at teaching! Thank you so much, greetings from México.
Best Kanji-Video i have seen so far.. will watch the others now. Thank you for your hard work.
Extremely helpful video. I have been so frustrated and disheartened starting to learn kanji. I have been trying to find good material for the last month with no luck. This video is the exact study tool I have looking. Your video has really brought me back to loving to learn Japanese. ありがとう ございます みさ先生
I watched it until the end! So clear and easy to follow! Thank you!
thank you so much for this lesson, I also learn grammars from your videos and the way you explains is really easy to understand! ありがとうございます❗
This is really good. You are an excellent instructor and a global asset. I've been told kanji unfolds like a history book. It is so beautiful to me.
I can't believe I have come across this. It makes me learn more and more kanjis! You are an excellent teacher! I wholeheartedly hope you upload more.
Very well done. The pace is good and explanations are clear. I look forward to your next one. ありがとうございました。
Thanks so much! I needed a refresher because I was all over the place with Japanese and I've been trying to learn it since 2020.
先生のビデオから勉強もらったありがとうございます。
