Review: LOVE IT! - Love the straight forward learning approach this book has to offer, along with the immersion and repetitive exercises, as this is the best way for me to learn and comprehend. The whole workbook is in Japanese, down to the instructions, so the accompanying Translation & Grammar notes Book is vital is you are introductory or beginner level….but I’d only recommend this book if you’re already familiar and have memorized the first 2 kana, as this book doesn’t teach you, or hold your hand in that regard. A CD also comes with the workbook which is nice, but I don’t have a CD player, so I can’t use it but you’re able to download the accompanying mp3 files on the publishers website for free, which is very helpful. I can see why this book is so popular.
Review: Not a lesson book... this is a workbook series. - If you're going to use this as supplemental practice, great. If you're buying this thinking it is a replacement for a book like Genki 1... you're in for a rude awakening. This book presupposes a certain level of comprehension. It also doesn't explain grammar points. It just shows them, and without translation. So, if you're getting this... just know that you'll need to have a separate source for your grammar and vocab study. Use this book with a teacher to guide you OR as a supplemental workbook. Done that way, this book is great. Used as a primary lesson book... it's insufficient.
