There are some who can learn fast and easy if it comes to them. I was by no means fluent in Japanese but I picked it up pretty quickly and could have reasonable convos after 18 months.
You can't knock advertising too much. Kokoro, it was maybe better to give a realistic time frame for your average learner. 5 years to speak very well is more realistic. Still, it depends how intensively you study, of course.
