I can't recommend Arurans English streams enough
I agree, you can actually ask this guy some questions and there is a good chance he will answer. He's funny and entertaining: "thank you for your membership! I will live another three days!"
retarded monolinguals pretend like English is some impossibly obtuse language
I've seen a couple of opinions like that on social media. When asked "how long did it take you to learn English" people either go silent or call for backup from their echo chambers, but in all cases they appeared to be English native speakers.
English is mostly an analytic language, where different meanings are conveyed via different word order and/or adding new words. A language like that can form when groups of people speaking different languages have to start communicating with each other (Mandarin and Cantonese are also analytic languages, like it or not). Words in the sentences usually stay the same. For comparison, Japanese (for everyone here studying or already speaking this language) is an agglutinative language, when you "glue" together words from different parts/words, add different endings to stems and so on. My native language is an inflected (or fusional) one, where nouns and verbs can (and should) be changed from a stem using a set of patterns and English-only speakers, when confronted with this concept, usually shit themselves.
tl;dr we have in this thread people from at least four continents, all able to communicate in English. Given how widespread the language is, combined with relatively simple to comprehend grammar (you don't have to remember dozens of different patterns to pronounce/write a word and convey the intended meaning), nowadays you can basically learn it by yourself.
I am betting that most of the posters from this thread have this on their own rooms/basement:

I wish. I only have Korone wallpaper on my office computer. But I had a room like that when I was a teenager, only the posters were from video games magazines (a lot of female video game characters, thank you for asking).
chinese people was pretty cool back then
I don't know much about Chinese history, but I find some bits extremely fascinating and I wish I knew more - sadly most of the stories are marred by either a fairytale-like storytelling or propaganda.
Edit : Is this new trend for V-tuber right now?
Vtubers are reacting to a "I want to see vtubers' shoes" hashtag on twitter (#Vtuberの靴が見たい ), nothing to be worried about.
It's not like Europeans are much better. Remind me how many versions of Robin Hood and the Arthurian Cycle there are again?
Monty Python and the Holy Grail is my favourite.
Bugmen history is weird and bloody. If they don’t have external enemies, they will fight among themselves consider their 5 major ethnic numbers in 300-400 millions each (effectively makes West Taiwan 5 mini countries within 1 giant landmass). That’s why Winne the Pooh always declare state enemy whenever there’s internal unrest to stir “nationalism” to keep society from fragmented.
If that file about Artia is to be believed, the bugmen supposedly went apeshit when Ame was trying different accents of English and flags of countries forming the United Kingdom were shown. Extremely naive reaction, but given their other actions I am willing to believe this story.
