There is no need to become fluent before going. Are there international art schools?

One might argue fluency comes by immersing youself in the country anyway.

Hello, Odin here. I've already learned to be semi-fluent in 2 other languages, being German and French (it's been years since I learned any French and subsequently forgot it after middle school lol). I'm still trying to keep on top of my German and returning to my studies of Japanese. My main motivation is I want to be a mangaka, with my own series already planned. I've always found the culture interesting, and with a history that had been so heavily dictated by war suddenly coming to peace (for the most part) really piqued my interest. The regions and their own histories are fun enough to learn of, and the various eras really offer a lot to dig your teeth into. Anyway, I hope to find success in both the East and the West with my series. I'm nowhere near ready to start putting it together but I want it to be based on Kendo and the various styles within/around it. Here's to a fun learning experience and happy days connecting to a culture once seemingly so far away!

Hi there don't really know what's going on now (😅) but I think we're meant to introduce ourselves so here I go!

My name is Honokaski (Well, not really) I've been using Renshuu for about 2-ish months now and I really enjoy the Question Corners and I think I spend more time on them than actually studying but¯\_(ツ)_/¯. I am using Renshuu because I quit doing Japanese school after school. And eventually, my Japanese got a bit(okay, a lot) rusty. I'm hoping I can go to Japan soon with PERFECT Japanese skills (I doubt it though). And the whole reason I'm learning Japanese is because my family comes from Japan and I want to be able to communicate with them. I like: drawing, emojis, Kpop(specifically BTS, shoutout to all those ARMY's out there! Well, if there are any on this site.💜), LEGOs, watermelon 🍉, maple syrup, fruit in general etc.

Bye!

Oh yeah, forgot to say that I have a goal of learning 27 languages. Only 23.5 to go!(lol)

Hello! My name is Kanori. Obviously it's not my real name, I don't use my real name online. I've studied Japanese in middle school for a year mainly because my japanese teacher always put anime every friday. But I'm 22 now and I haven't kept up my studies so I forgot most of what I learned, but I remember some from binging anime for years.

I started Renshuu about half an hour ago. I still have my book of hiragana and katakana from middle school which is — Japanese Hiragana & Katakana for Beginners: First Steps to Mastering the Japanese Writing System (Includes Online Media: Flash Cards, Writing Practice Sheets and Self Quiz) https://a.co/d/56Frrbz

The other languages that I'm learning aside from Japanese are English, Korean, Chinese, Spanish and French. If you can't tell, learning new languages is my hobby.

I wanna learn Japanese first because my fiancé and I want to visit Japan one day.
