I find it difficult because the characters speak without showcasing what the action is about and that's important for putting two and two together, too many talking heads in anime.
I learned English solely through watching The Simpsons and Family Guy. Lots of of visual gags in those so it started to click.
Subtitles suck by the way as they distract from the language. Turn them off and go raw and fuck the Runefags, illiterates can watch anime just fine.
