I don't really feel motivated learning Japanese by memorizing tons of Kanji
I don't feel myself progressing at all just by doing that
Is there any other method to learning Japanese other than grinding Kanji forever?
Like reading a visual novel and learning the kanji at the same time
Is that even possible?

Yeah man, there's this pretty sweet computer game that'll naturally teach you Japanese just by playing it normally. Here's the link:

Do your reps, faggot.

Go to Japan.

If you live there and try to survive you will learn Japanese for survival whether you want to or not. Might take like 5 years though.

I have some audio files that use binaural beats and hypnotic suggestion to teach you Japanese in your sleep, OP.

PayPal me $80 and I'll email them right over.

I'm doing this at the momment. I don't suggest this for learning the actual kanji, but as general practice.

There are no cheat codes to learning a language. You have to commit yourself. Study at your own pace.

Stop fantasizing.
Japan loves gaijins.

I learned English by force, looking at books and using a dictionary all the time. Eventually I realized I was thinking in English.
I'd say it's a good way to "cheat".

Currently I'm reading VNs, watching videos on niconico and paying attention to what they say. I also read japanese on a daily basis, and whenever I stumble upon a kanji I don't know, I write a flash card of it, go to Kanji Damage, learn the radicals and then I try to associate the kanji with a sentence that makes me remember the kunyomi, the onyomi, the radicals and the meaning of the kanji. I'm also reading Tae Kim's guide to japanese. Am I doing it right, /jp/?

They're two completely different languages. By all means go ahead, but I doubt you'll be "thinking in Japanese" any time soon.

Grinded 6-9 hours every day for 3 months through the kanjidamage method (i.e memorizing onyomi and kunyomi)

If you think grinding kanji with only learning the meaning of them is tedious and boring, you should immediately give up on learning Japanese and kill yourself.
