I think we're still making fun of how much this book sucked..There's nothing of kana in the entire book (it's all written in romanji) and that's painful when you have to read long Japanese words. Beyond that, I remember mocking it every day of college Freshman year, mostly because of the romanji, but also because the setup and explanations just didn't fit nor did they make sense. Go for something else if you're looking for a Japanese book. This one's a waste of your time.

THE END OF MY LIFE IN ALL ITS SWEET GLORY

This was the text for my first year of Japanese in college. Just a few of my thoughts on it:
The text sometimes comes across as dated, being about 25 years old.
While the JSL Romaji differs from Hepburn, it does have its advantages.
The explanations are very thorough, but I find them to be overwhelming and wordy. My professor did a much better job explaining the same concepts but breaking them down so that they were easier to grasp.
The vocabulary is very limited; for what is supposed to be a year's..more

Not even sure what to write about this one. Jorden and Noda certainly took all the fun out of learning a new language with this series. The grammar explanations almsot required a BA in linguistics to comprehend and the romaji (the whole book is written in romaji) is a slightly tricky version-nihon shiki. Nihon shiki correlates more closely to the written language than Hepburn but for reasons beyond me, this book refuses to touch written language. This book is super dated - my guess is they're wa..more

I found this book (and the other two in the series) quite effective. The linguistic explanations are on the whole very accurate, and the drills and conversations were quite useful.
I do have to make two hedges. The first is that you will need some sort of additional text to deal with the written language; I would suggest either 'Reading Japanese' or 'Japanese: The Written Language' by the same authors, as those books are integrated with this one. The second is that this book might not be as effec..more

Steer clear of this one. Bought this on amazon- took one look and decided to sell it back immediately. Entirely in Romaji and using a transliteration that must be archaic because it looks to have more in common with pinyin than Japanese. As a higher intermediate Japanese learning i rest baffled- all the into to Japanese books I've come across have been entirely straightforward, especially those using romaji. At least it has a pretty cover.

This is a very commonly used book in Japanese courses, but I personally hate it. It's very focused on the audiolingual method of language learning and doesn't work for me. Other people seem to enjoy it but personally I prefer something more user-friendly like 'Yokoso'.
