Android epub reader app with built-in J-E functionality?
https://github.com/lrorpilla/jidoujisho/tree/main and as for dictionary format I don't remember but I believe they have a couple dictionaries that were edited to be compatible, look for that if the standard ones you'd use for yomichan don't work

Kind of silly, but I had a 'It makes sense moment' today
It would be better to use jidoujisho with a proper dictionary, as translations are a crutch that are better off being dropped.

Best Japanese dictionary for Android?
https://github.com/emc2314/arujisho best in my opinion. You can use https://github.com/lrorpilla/jidoujisho if you want to import your own dictionary. Otherwise ebpocket pro on the google store

Best balanced approach to speed running vocab without ignoring kanji ?
For your free hours, if you have a hand free, maybe install a book reader with a popup dictionnary on your phone like jidoujisho and read on your phone. You're now immersing at work :)

What was the first book you read in Japanese?
for manga, I like kanjitomo for OCR, and for reading text on my phone I use a browser extension to generate epub from WNs or otherwise try and find an epub, and then use the typhon-kai reader (https://github.com/dajimenezja/typhon/releases) in android which can do dictionary lookups (I tried kiwi browser+ttu and also jidoujisho and both were pretty scuffed (Super laggy on large books, and triggered dictionary lookups while I was swiping to scroll down which was super annoying))

I read 200 books in Japanese!
https://github.com/dajimenezja/typhon/releases if you're ok to manually install an APK. A bit clunky but it has the fastest dictionary lookups of any app. I read my first 20 books on this.
