I wanted to read the Japanese version of re:monster as an exercise to learn more Japanese. It's really hard for me to understand the meaning of some

sentences and it's taking forever to read and learn Kanji I'm not familiar with. Is it the same for everyone else who's learning Japanese?

My Japanese level is pretty low.

I know Hiragana, katakana, about 1000 kanji, but can't hold a conversation.

I can get by in Japan, but people know that I'm a foreigner as soon as my coherence breaks down

after a few sentences. To others I sounded like I was fluent in Japanese, but I really don't know enough to actually

have a conversation.
