That certificate is for N2 of the JLPT, whereas the top level is N1. A lot of native Chinese speakers can pass test levels beyond their actual Japanese ability just because they're familiar with the kanji, which is a big part of the test.
I thought porn was illegal in China. Unless they allow censored forms where it's just the dialog and foreplay that ends when the clothes start coming off.
I had a friend in high school whose family moved to America from Vietnam when they were around 5. They said they learned English from watching TV all day.
Edit: Didn't realize the A stood for adult, not anime... Whoops.
So did I, and a lot of people I grew up with. Cartoon Network, Discovery Channel and later on, the Internet.
My teenage kids are fluent as well, and that's almost all of it from watching media. First cartoons and movies (I keep all my streaming services in the native language, and most of them are in English), and now... YouTube.
I grew up in a border town in northern Mexico. We got a bunch of the TV channels from the US town across the border. I learned English watching those American channels.
