Japanese video blog that might be of some use

#1
I used kanji.kohii to learn Kanji a few years ago and recently thought I would give a little back to the Japanese learner's community. I've created a bunch of Japanese blog videos (all japanese with the occasional English subtitle for useful phrases). Hope they might help you in some way!

They are up on YouTube at:














Thanks.

Ah ha, so Adam comes for a visit. Good vblog man, you're Japanese is pretty good.

My only critique would be to watch your rising intonation. I noticed it a lot when you use は or a couple of the other particles. One of my friends yelled at me for that a while ago, so I can only assume it's not a good idea. Try to keep your voice a little flatter. That's why I did, and now my friend says the problem is gone.

Ryuujin, thanks for the advice. Speaking is actually my worst area of Japanese ever since I moved back to America, so one of the reasons I started the vlog was to work on that. I'll try to be more careful with my intonation.

And maybe I'm misinterpreting what your first sentence means, but do I know you?

Those are good! About the books one, those J-novels look interesting!
Have you seen this community? They write reviews of J-books, while including things like how easy it was to read, which is very useful. ^-^ I highly recommend it to any fan of J-books!
