Yeah, you would learn some things, but you'd end up speaking like cringy middle schooler. Business and daily life conversations are significantly different from anime and manga ones.
Yeah imagine if someone learned all their English from American cartoons. Not American media, just cartoons. They’d speak weird
Yeah but also if someone learned English from stuff like the Simpsons, futurama, family guy, etc they’d absolutely still sound weird in their word choices, but also in their understanding of our culture. And yeah bojack and Rick and Morty would do it too. Hell you could even throw some stuff like breaking bad in there and they’d still struggle.
