I would not recommend this for complete beginners to the Japanese language. Because of the way the cards are laid out, I think it would be better suited for people who have some knowledge of how to read Hiragana and how to properly pronounce Japanese syllables.

Each flash card focuses on one Kanji character, but on most of the cards, the translation for that lone Kanji character is not given. Instead, 6 words that include the featured Kanji are presented on each card, along with Hiragana, Roumaji, and English translations for each word. You have to use context in order to figure out what the main Kanji character means, or go look it up online somewhere. Because of this, I think most beginners would be confused by these flash cards. I've been studying Japanese grammar and vocabulary for a couple of months and these cards work really well for me by building upon that foundation.

The CD that comes with this kit is also not great for beginners. It contains 200 MP3 files - one for each of the 200 flash cards in the kit. In each MP3 file, a native Japanese speaker says the card number, followed by the Japanese pronunciation of each word on that card. No English translations are read. These audio files seem to be provided so you can learn how to properly pronounce the words. I do find that listening to the Japanese audio helps me memorize the vocabulary.

The audio CD does not auto-play in my PC's CD-ROM drive. I have to open a media playing program and play the tracks from there. I don't know if this is just on my computer or if it's this way on all of them. Also, the CD does not work in traditional CD players. If you want to play this in a CD player, you'll have to burn the files to blank CD and format it to play in CD players.

This is a very simple but also effective method in the sense that it helps you break down a seemingly daunting task at first into very straightforward daily objectives (if you choose like I do to practice one new character per day). The cards themselves are fairly basic but can take a little bit of abuse as they are (thinly) laminated. Each character's drawing is broken down stroke by stroke so you can practice the proper way.

I was looking forward to using the CD along with the writing practice, to make sure I remember the words based on their pronunciation in Japanese and not their English translation, but the CD enclosed didn't read in any of the players I have at my disposal (computer, car, stereo, I have a few). I contacted Amazon and they sent me a replacement, but same thing happened with the latter. I then contacted the manufacturer with the phone number provided with the instructions, and they proposed to mail me a new CD after testing it themselves to make sure it played properly. I received the CD a week later, and it does work but as a data file I downloaded on my iPod (not as a CD you can play on your car or home stereo).

I was expecting the audio pronunciation to be helpful, and was disappointed that the characters are not read by themselves - only as a component to other words. This adds a difficulty to the learning process: you now have to identify the character as it is pronounced as part of several different words. Perhaps a little much to ask considering this is a beginner's method.

This is a fabulous resource for Japanese language learners. I purchased after taking a beginning Japanese language course, so I did have the hiragana recognition to begin with. I suggest, like other reviewers, that you begin with the Hiragana/Katakana kit. I have my Master's in Teaching English.

The flashcards have some great things. First, they used mnemonics to assist learners in memorizing the "pictures" and relating it to ideas. Of course, you can come up with your own, but it's nice to have suggestions in how to do this. Next, the cards build in complexity and therefore it's much easier to relate your education to background knowledge. The audioCD is a very helpful resource as it is separated out by card (200 tracks!) and makes it easier to find the card pronounciation you are looking for. The female native Japanese speaker does a great job speaking at temp as well as leaving space between words for you to practice repeating the word back. I would have liked a "slower-speed" first and then the "full-speed" pronounciation, but that is my only complaint.

I have been unable to find Volume 2 by this same author/publisher with the audioCD and I hope to find it soon.

I'm a total newbie to the Japanese language but so far these have made my first 30 kanji very easy to learn and memorize! If I have any complaints it's that I wish the cards were a little sturdier, they are starting to tear where the metal ring holds them.

I bought these as a gift for my brother in law who is studying Japanese and he thinks they are very useful and has enjoyed them.
