Like i said you only really need a dictionary and some motivation, it took me a month of about 3-4 hours a day to get to the point where I can piece together the meaning of a sentence using my limited vocabulary and intonation recognition. And memorizing a 2 hour nsfw asmr script might have helped lmao. And after that its pretty much easy improvement as long a you study and keep consuming japanese media. Mind you I also learn English without studying and watching youtube for like a year when I was 10 so I might just be built different.
