5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent package
I rented this package from the library because I really wanted to learn Japanese.

1.0 out of 5 stars Worst way to learn Japanese or any foreign language
This is the worst way to learn Japanese or any foreign language.

Just imagine. Someone is learning English without knowing

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?)
This review is from: Learn Japanese the Fast and Fun Way (Fast and Fun Way Series) (Paperback)
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!

This review is from: Learn Japanese the Fast and Fun Way (Fast and Fun Way Series) (Paperback)
I love this book so much! Its easy to connect to. It has visual pictures and name captions. All of its romaji. No actual Japanese characters. If you plan on just SPEAKING Japanese, and want to know what these things are, then i would recommend this book (:

2.0 out of 5 stars No Japanese Characters, November 24, 2001
By 
This book does not teach you how to read Japanese.
It teaches you how to speak Japanese pretty good.
I don't like books that don't teach Japanese characters.
