It looks like just about all of us love anime, and one of the best ways to learn Japenese is through anime. ^^
Here you can up Japense words you know/learned. It's a nice way to expand knowledge on a new language. ^^
------
Words I know:
Kawaii: Cute
Nani: What?
Arigato: Thank You
Inu: Dog
Neko: Cat
Kitsune: Fox
Houshi: Monk
