This is a Japanese learning web site by Reiko Sakaguchi. I will teach you Japanese using my favorite Anime, Yu Yu Hakusho and Magic Knights RayEarth as learning materials. If you are a serious Anime fan and wish to understand what characters are talking in your favorite Anime without reading subtitle, but don't have time or money to hire a tutor or to take Japanese courses, this is the class for you! Each day, I will introduce you some Japanese using Anime characters' voice. All you need to do is to check this page every day (Mon. - Thur.) at your convenient time. And of course it's free! Sounds great? Let's begin!
This page was made possible by the help from my husband,
Toru Sakaguchi
(a.k.a. Justy Ueki Tylor), my friends,Brenf Buchalew, Andy
Church (achurch@dragonfire.net)
and Troy Alan Williams who gave
us this wonderful opportunity to re-open JAL. Thank you, guys!
