>It's hard as fuck to read kanji
you only need kanji if you want to be able to read and write, which to watch anime or to have a conversation isn't needed.
personally i recommend saving kanji as the last thing you learn, if any.
at the beginning focus on grammar rules and vocab.
if you have a good grasp of grammer and an okay vocabulary you will start to pick up sentences, which will naturally lead to the ability to construct them.
