I'm watching Card Captor Sakura right now, I really like it. The Japanese is easy to understand, even without subtitles. There's so many different types of anime and manga out there, I'm sure most people can find something they like.

There's also that Slime Forest Adventure game that teaches kana and kanji. It makes learning soooo fast, but watch out because most of the kanji keywords are different from Heisig's(might give a broader definition of a kanji, though, learning two keywords)

Thankfully, I'm at a point in my life where I can study for a couple hours and it's just fun ^_^

I have some good news! The Pimsleur course has 3 parts, but all three parts use so many cd's that the material I'm using has half of each part. Ex: Japanese 1a, Japanese 1b, Japanese 2a, Japanese 2b, Japanese 3a, Japanese 3b.

And, today, I finished Japanese 1a and I'm ready for Japanese 1b, which I'm waiting for at a library! We're celebrating with pizza, lol.
