Assessing future plans for learning Japanese.

[solemn folio]

So, (as my mother suggested) I’m taking a lengthy break from learning but I’m not sure on what to do next.

Right now, I have a quite muddy understanding of N5 level grammar and know quite a few words.
My reasoning for wanting to learn Japanese is because I want to become a 漫画家 one day and be apart of the Japanese entertainment industry.
So, I’m in my last year of high school and I’ll be graduating this may, and I plan on going to a private art school overseas.
If everything goes well, I’ll probably want to create connections and build a bit of a reputation as an artist before moving to Japan.

But I really don’t know how I can cram learning the language and immersion into all of that, or if I will become fluent enough to suffice getting a job.

It depends on how much you really value it in your life compared to other things

if you really wanna go through with your dream, you’re going to have to make at least some time during the day to immerse if you want to make progress in a decent timespan

If you want results faster immerse more, if you don’t care how long it takes you, less

Also you can do passive immersion doing menial tasks and stuff which helps
