Shows to Watch -
09-11-2010, 11:28 PM
Yo! how's everyone today?!
Heres my question: I'd definetly need to build my vocabulary alot more, but once I do, what kinds of shows in Japanese should I watch to learn? Is anime a good idea? If so is there a certain kind? The reason I ask is because this really helped my mother learn English (Watching The Price is Right) and she has a pretty darn good job, she isn't a lawyer but she does something doctor-related. I aim to be as good as her in profieciency, and TV obviously helps. Help is much appreciated  I have no Friends- The cats have scratched and destroyed all of the DVDs! I always owe someone- In fact I put two os in it! I always ruin my clothes with Bleach!- The show is so dom suspensful I spill my grape soda on them! But . . .I'll live.

If all you want to do is practice listening and learning new words then any TV show will be fine.
If you want to use them to mimic speech/accents etc then stay away from anime for sure. Personally I like to watch dramas when I can - Things like 仁、ヴォイス～命なき者の声～、銭ゲバ etc (Those dramas are already over but you get the idea) I also like the news and I like chat shows and things like that. One of the reasons I like drama so much in particular, is because not only is it entertaining for me, but I also have Japanese subtitle files, so it's easy to look up new words You can also sign up to ニコニコ動画(9) to watch any videos you can find. Sometimes I watch Japanese dubs of The Simpsons on there for example.
