Jouzu Juls was created to document Cheif's journey learning the Japanese language from absolutely nothing, it has since evolved to be an educational channel that shares tips and tricks for learning Japanese.
==Japanese Learning Journey ==
Cheif started learning Japanese on August 30, 2020https://youtu.be/Jp92ZHyR_rw?si=YSCHp6O6FBghU_Vl, and the Jouzu Juls channel was created 2 months later on October 10, 2020. 
He has stated that the reason he began studying Japanese is because he was infatuated with Japanese Anime and VTubers, and wanted to understand Japanese Vtubers without relying on subtitleshttps://www.jouzujuls.com/about. He was able to accomplish this goal within 6 months of starting.
==Teachers==
Jouzu Juls often gives credit to his teacher, Cure Dolly sensei †https://youtu.be/E_aR2F05dEc?si=0c5M7e4lSiDxjAUU, however, that is not his only teacher.
Fundamentally, Jouzu Juls' language learning approach is based on the findings of linguist Dr. Stephen Krashenhttps://youtu.be/E6j5CphUJBc?si=7nPGAxbToqkNRdke. Who's research gave birth to language learning methods such as AJATT, MIA, and Refold. These were introduced to him by a YouTuber by the name of Matt vs Japan.
Jouzu Juls has also stated that he is a subscriber of YouTuber Dogen's Patreon where he take Dogen's course on Japanese Phoneticshttps://youtu.be/zT2npnE12tQ?si=SLxpAvUXFYkXxJ44.
Although out of all his teachers, Cure Dolly has been the most influential. Jouzu Juls was a private student of Cure Dolly who was subscribed to her Patreon, he received personal advice from Cure Dolly before she passed away on October 8, 2021.
==Relationship to Cure Dolly ==
Jouzu Juls has stated that he believes one of the reasons Cure Dolly's teachings are not more popular is because of her "creepy" model and voice, and thus works to recreate a lot of Cure Dolly's most important videos in a more welcoming manner.
Jouzu Juls is often recognized as Cure Dolly's successor due to his familiarity with Cure Dolly's Japanese grammar systemhttps://youtu.be/HAdmKhVjVs8?si=JzWwbpTEicsJA51e and strict approach to learning. He is still in touch with his classmates during his time with Cure Dolly and often discusses his research and finding with his them on Discord.
