I have always found it strange that reaction roles are presented in the basic set as a "core mechanic." What's the deal with that? Wouldn't contests be a more important mechanic?

>a way to slightly accelerate the process is to read up on japanese phonology
I already did that. I'm interested in phonetics too, one of the reasons I'm learning it is because the language sounds beautiful. I am not a native english speaker, my mother tongue is nearly a phonetic superset of japanese, so I don't have any trouble distinguishing sounds. The language is not complicated for me to follow if words and patters that I know are being used, and if sentences aren't too complex. I also didn't mean to imply I can understand literally everything perfectly 100% of the time, and it's something I obviously develop as I go, it's not like I'm actively avoiding listening to shit.
None of the shit you said matters anyway. Nobody is learning a language quickly by just listening to it. In every language learning course there is always a strong component of written and vocal production from the start. I too read my shit aloud and try to produce it (although I have much less interest in vocal production just because I don't have an outlet for it.)
Again, I'm not saying you don't know japanese, but knowing something does not mean you know how to learn it efficiently (or at all, really, I have no clue how you learn any romance language without wanting to kill yourself). Yes, you can just expose yourself to it and eventually you'll learn something, but that doesn't mean that is the best way of doing things. The whole academic body disagrees with you. Your claim is actually ludicrous. It's moronic.
