Late to the topic, but I've learned a bit through watching Naruto Shippuuden. Stuff I wasn't able to catch before, I do now, such as informal speech, whereas in the classroom, you usually learn polite for a long time before getting to it.
This past week's episode, I started noticing Naruto's casual speech and his using attachments like "nda".
Something else I will admit to have learned through anime is some vocabulary. In my class, my teacher might mention a word in English, and because of anime, I might know the word for it in Japanese right off. Now writing it is a whole other story. lol
Sometimes it can be helpful to learn some things through anime or Japanese dramas, but it shouldn't be heavily relied on, imo.
