Ever thought about taking the 30 Day Challenge? My Challenge where every single day you learn one little bit of Nihongo and build a foundation in Japanese? Well, Adam did it. Adam took the Manga Sensei 30 Day challenge and passed it with flying colors. He did it all and made it through to the other side. Plus he recorded his whole journey on instagram.

Japanese can still be little confusing, especially when it comes to words that seem super alike. Examples of this are words like Kara and Node, or Onegai and Kudasai. We figured we would clear those up for you.
