I started learning Japanese four months ago and slowly converged on the same toolbox as the one in TFA. My only gripe is that SRS works much better for kanji and vocabulary than for grammar. Learning one kanji has a much more stable difficulty than learning one grammar rule, so it's much easier to set a goal of "learn X kanji per day" than "learn X grammar rules per day". At some point, I'll have to force myself to take a break from kanji and vocab lessons to work on grammar for a while.

EDIT: I should add that this method is not the "One True Way". Different people learn in different ways. If you want to see a radically different approach to learn Japanese, check out https://massimmersionapproach.com/

Apparently there’s ‘some’ recent drama going on at massimmersionapproach.
