Can someone please recommend me some good YouTubers to watch at work in the background? I had my work schedule change and now have 10 hour days. I have had no time to continue to learn Japanese as an extreme beginner. I don't really need to understand them fully but having japanese language content that already matches my interests would help.
I'm looking for YouTubers who are queer or women who have a mostly female audience:
(Not all of these have to apply but serve as a recommendation for content I already watch and enjoy)
very casual with the learning content and aren't too concerned about being family friendly.
Cover goth/punk/ and alternative subcultures. Especially interests in art and fashion within the subcultures
Queer and teach queer culture and terms in Japan. I feel like drag is something that I dont get much content from in Japan and really want to see more of.
Gaming YouTubers are welcome, too( even if i wont understand them). Playing niche horror games and covering the game history is a part of my constant YouTube watching.
Short anecdote: I took French language classes and was really good at it and had a lot of fun. My teachers methods of teaching was through casual conversations about French language and culture. Basically she would speak in english about the topic and would casually interject French in her sentences and explain the meaning and move on. Our class never had real topics and units we would just talk and learn about whatever we wanted. It made the learning fun and engaging and never felt like a class, it just felt like hanging out with a cool French lady. I'm basically trying to emulate that experience with Japanese by engaging with topics I'm interested in.
