I booked a flight to Japan for the last week of October and the first two weeks in November.

My plans so far are very vague: For the first week I want to stay in Tokyo, and in the other two weeks I would like to visit two or more cities or towns around the main island or Hokkaido (the northern island). I plan to travel by train and bus.

I would appreciate any tips and inspiration from your experiences in Japan – or just write me some locations that you would like to see when you travel there yourself.

My budget will be around $3000 excluding the flight. A friend will accompany me, so will be able to split the rent.

Anime for teenagers and adults generally uses more complex language. At least in my experience, this makes it very hard to get started. Kids shows, on the other hand, often use very simple forms, which makes it easier to get a grip on things. I try to see them as exercises, so I can get to the better shows that I want to be watching. Hopefully, someone else can prove me wrong. I, too, could use some recommendations that are not just kids' anime.

Do you have an example of a book that makes problems? I can try it on my e-book readers

I just use some Anki cards that I found online. Googling it, I found multiple Anki card decks for the Heisig method and I just chose the one that fitted me best.
