This is not some fanatics guide to learning Japanese through only relentlessly watching anime, and not doing any work at all, a feat that I have seen attempted, and in all cases miserable failure was the result. No, these are some pointers as to how you can better benefit from watching Japanese popular media, adding to อนิเมะใหม่ other studying efforts.

There are mainly two things that watching anime, movies, TV shows or even theater can help you with, if you have little to no previous knowledge. You guessed it, listening right? Well that's one. And the other is vocabulary. You can learn to pick up grammar as well, but that will have to be after you recognize some core sentence structures.

Take Notes

Take notes of all the recurring words that you don't know. If you see the word used repeatedly over 20 minutes, and it's not something limited to the confines of sci-fi or fantasy, jot it down and memorize it. The thing about a language that makes it hard to learn from just textbooks and old audio CDs, is that languages don't stay the same. They change with time, and sometimes keeping up to date with popular media, is the only way to have an up-to-date vocabulary, short of actually living and breathing the language.

Different Dialects

One thing about anime, or movies, or TV shows, is that there can sometimes be an abundance of different dialects in play. If you already have experience from living in Tokyo, or somewhere with a relatively neutral accent, you should be fine. But if not, paying attention and not mixing up accents is a good idea. Identify where the different characters are from, in anime this is often not possible, but usually if you steer clear of the characters using a lot of unique expressions and sentence endings, you should be fine. Checking out some countrywide news could be a good idea, as they are more likely to speak in the standardized accent. If you're not interested in hyojungo標準語, the standardized accent, but say Kansaiben,関西弁 you can do some research by watching comedians from Kansai, although you might want to refrain from using all the expressions you hear.
