Looking for some Japanese Language learning YouTubers!

Hi guys!
My post was auto kicked from all Reddit subs with for “no karma” or “post related to specific language” so I came to the place with only people I can rely on!

So Japanese channels I’m looking for is channels that explain language learning methods and technologies, mb how to learn one or another language, something for native Japanese people, not mainstream that can be found of the first page of YouTube.
To give an example of what I’m looking for, here are some English speaking YouTubers I would want watching in Japanese:

Nice guys with technical content and stats: https://youtube.com/@onewordatatime1?feature=shared

Just nice to watch: https://youtube.com/@daysandwords?feature=shared

Speedruner guy: https://youtube.com/@languagelords?feature=shared

Steve Kaufmann: https://youtube.com/@thelinguist?feature=shared

Thank you in advance!

I am more into linguistics stuff than language learning stuff (in terms of content) but here is some random stuff. Probably none of it is suitable for beginners but there is some casual stuff that may be watchable even with low comprehension. Enjoy!

You can find an absolute load of videos just by searching on youtube. The above is a mix of stuff I have watched a fair amount of and then things I have come across but barely watched.

Wow thanks a lot for taking time to this list!

This one is especially suite my

Not too fast for me, and a lot of vocab is common for me! Also I like the style! Probably will use ti for my reading and then listening practice first.

This shouldn’t be hard ether.

I’ve seen her, and her English pronunciation is better the Japanese according to me :laughing: quite hard to understand, sentences 2x in length from what I can read.

This one looks right for me too!

Half of linguistic stuff looks interesting&comprehensible for reading, but uses a lot of vocab that looks like differs from casual learning videos, so I think I shouldn’t jump there yet

This one is very understandable, slow and words are quite basic, but I’m still not getting what his content is about 😶‍🌫️ anyway I like his style.

Thanks again!
