@MichaelMcQuade it is a good resource but not a sole resource.

@ʞɹɐzǝɹ I'm taking Japanese classes for my language credits at school, so I'm looking for things to supplement my learning outside of that, lots and lots of kanji to learn
ʞɹɐzǝɹ
ʞɹɐzǝɹ

Michael McQuade
Michael McQuade
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ Genki textbook/workbook for class

TextFugu and EtoEto are also good resources to use
one thing I recommend is not to make a habit of using romaji. Use kana wherever possible
Michael McQuade
Michael McQuade

@Darjeeling yes, I would say so

Anki ichi2.net/anki and Mnemosyne mnemosyne-proj.org are useful too
for grammar, this is a popular choice by some ppl guidetojapanese.org
for everything else, there's:
