5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent package, June 6, 2000
I rented this package from the library because I really wanted to learn Japanese. I started off the first day by turning on one of the four cassettes and following along in the beautifully done 256 page workbook. They told me simple ways of learning Japanese and it was very easy. I would recommend this to anyone who really wants to learn Japanese and who has the time. If you don't have the time, I would suggest something shorter and at a more grueling pace. But I definitely give this two thumbs up!

5.0 out of 5 stars Learn Japanese the Fund and Fun Way, April 1, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I bought this book for my Grandson. He liked it so much, I ordered another set so he could study with his friend. The friends daughter spent some time in Japan and he wanted to surprise her by conversing with her in Japanese. It's a fun way to learn and it's even better when you have someone to learn along with you.

5.0 out of 5 stars Makes Learning the Japanese language easy, November 26, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
I absolutely love this book! I remember when I started to borrow it from the library. It didn't come with the cassetes, but pronunciation was not difficult. I have also always watched Japanese anime, so I was used to everything. I understand that some people are annoyed that the book does not teach you how to write Japanese characters. However, there are two pages of Hiragana and Katakana in the back. Also, this book can only teach you so much, so I wouldn't be complaining. If you want to learn to write, watch Youtube videos, but it isn't that hard to teach yourself. This book, along with my Japanese friends, has helped me to learn Japanese, and gave me a good insight into the rich culture of Japan. After three years, I am a fluent speaker of the language, and this book helped me to get on the right steps.

Arigato gozaimasu!
