6 Netflix Dramas You Should Watch to Learn Japanese!

Video Overview & Insights

- Beginner

The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House was directed by Hirokazu Koreeda who also directed Asura, another series on Netflix. A New York Times review of Asura said its one drawback is making most every other series look weak by comparison.

・孤独のグルメ / Kodoku no Gourmet / Solitary Gourmet

・ライオンの隠れ家 / Lion no kakurega / Light Of My Lion

The hardest part with learning from Netflix isn’t finding good shows, it’s not pausing every 10 seconds to check every word.

I’ve been experimenting with a workflow where I save only useful phrases from each episode and review them later. It makes dramas/anime way less overwhelming.

・First Love 初恋

Greetings from Brazil ありがとうございました先生

・舞妓さんちのまかないさん / Maikosanchi no makanaisan /The Makanai: Cooking for the Maiko House

- Advanced

I like how you edit your videos with a zoom in when you mess up a bit. 😂
Thank you for the viewing osusume. I liked Kiyo in Kyoto, I think it was the live version of the anime. Also, I loved House of Ninja, I hope they make a Season 2.

— @Bikerpunk330

・今際の国のアリス / Imagiwa no kuni no Alice / Alice in Borderland

・忍びの家 / Shinobi no ie / HOUSE OF NINJAS

So happy to see 『舞妓さんちのまかないさん』mentioned here. I watched it years ago with English subtitles. Loved it so much. It is one of the reasons why I am learning Japanese now. 😁

If anyone is interested in Japanese dramas, the older ones are better than today's dramas with some examples:

- Long Vacation
- Love Generation (Netflix)
- Beautiful Life (Netflix)
- Orange Days (Netflix)
- Great Teacher Onizuka
- 1 Litre of Tears
- He Who Can't Marry

Hot Spot is really good. I watched it with my Japanese wife and we laughed a lot! バカリズムは天才ですね。😆 When I lived in Japan I was acting in many dramas☺ For example: お見合い結婚、新 花へんろ ちょっと古いけど😅

孤独のグルメ... I looked at 4 of those but there is no speaking or dialogue. It's just walking around the city and going into restaurants and close-up views of food. No Japanese learning....none that I could see.

Light of my lion : he does not have a disability. He is autistic. It is a wonderful dorama!
Solitary gourmet is not shown in Netflix Brasil what a pity!

I'm a beginner in the Japanese language journey and I've watched First Love at least 10x😂😂😂 (with subtitles, but hopefully soon without) ITS SO GOOD!!! ❤

舞妓さんちのまかないさん is a delightful show and they even have a zombie episode!

@AlistairCookie602

Yes Goro san speaks very slowly and clearly...its a good choice for listening and learning.

@norinickrrostron9001

Besides the good suggestions for shows to watch, I think this video is also good material for Japanese learners. I understood most of it by listening and reading just the Japanese subtitles. Your pronunciation was very clear to me.

おすすめありがとう! I'd been discouraged lately trying to find shows in Japanese at my level, but I watched the first two episodes of ライオンの隠れ家 and found them really easy to follow

@darrathel5475

Thank you very much. What do you think of Quartet drama?

@agatazdanowicz3906
@

Thank you! I've just discovered your YouTube channel 😄!! It's so helpful 😊! Thank you also for the English subtitles!
I started learning Japanese 3 years ago and that is because I am a Greek 🇬🇷 fan of Hanyu Yuzuru 💝, the figure skater ⛸️🎶!
I have also started watching J-dramas! In fact, I have already watched Light of my Lion, First Love and Cooking for the Maiko house. I liked them all very much !
I love the sound of the Japanese language and I love writing in it 🤩! I hope that some day I will be able to become really good at it 😌!

Can someone help me out with how to learn kanji? Unlike other languages the single block is not same for all the words. Is memorising the only way?

Thanks. "Tokyo Swindlers" / "地面師たち" is also a good series to learn Japanese from I think.

I LOVE Htauskoi with all my heart! My favorite drama ever. Followed by Ichi Rittoru no namida and the Japanese show "Modern Love". I don't consider my English ad intermediate but I watched them and I recommend them so much

I wanted to watch solitary gourmet after watching k foodie meets j foodie but in America it's not on Netflix..

@travis.808
@

どう考えても『舞妓さんちのまかないさん』は中級者向けではない! なぜなら、そのテレビ番組に京都弁がバリバリ使われているからである。関西に住んでいる外国人にはさほどレベルが高くなかろうが、関西の方言に馴染みのない外国人にとっては難しすぎであろう。

ありがとうございます。
最近、Netflixで「ホットスポット」「さようならのつづき」「マリと子犬の物語」「余命一年の僕が、余命半年の君と出会った話」など、いろいろな日本の映画を観ましたが、字幕なしで観るのはまだ難しかったです。
どれもとても良い映画だったので、おすすめです

Konnichiwa Emiri. I am a beginner trying to learn Japanese. It is muzukashi. Learning a new language at my age (nana jyu san sai)
my brain has been retired from school for a long time! Onagaishimasu for your recommendations, I will check them out. These 2 Netflix shows are fun to watch & listen to: The Hot Spot, and Midnight Diner, the original seasons. Alice in Borderland is a great show for story content but difficult to learn from, a few words here and there, but some of the character speak quickly! I wish I could live in Japan and be fully immersed with the language. Sink or swim.
