Just like any other language, it becomes rote memorization after that. Of course, you will need to learn more in person to sound natural, but that's no different from any other language. Reading it is another story...
Though it's hard to say being a native speaker of English myself, I'd say that English is probably a good deal more difficult to learn than Japanese. English is far more critical and quite inconsistent.

English is much harder but I am having a hard time with it.
Not that I won't get it but... Speaking it is not as hard as writing or reading it. I am doing ok with the speaking part but as I do not have anyone to converse with it is hard
I have the sentence structure down for the most part but I tend to forget at times. haha. I've just noticed that there are so many words for one thing in Japanese. It is very confusing. I'm still a beginner though
