Yup, immersion is the main way you learn words, and Anki can help speed up the process.

If you haven't already, make sure you check out all the resources linked in #❗start-here , which goes into more detail about how to learn hiragana, katakana, and vocabulary.

you open youtube / aniwatch and play a video, you open a manga or a book and start reading it while doing some lookups

there should be answers in the refold guide

If you learn Japanese only through anime or visual novels I'm sorry but you need to get a grip. Take a test booster or something, that might help :)

Im happy if that works for you. But its bad advice for any beginner, since in the beginning 4 hours can be quite difficult to sustain, unless you dont have any other obligations (family, full time job, etc)
