I've definitely fallen in love with this program! It's so easy to follow and Kenny-san and Sayaka-san are awesome! I love how in depth they go into simple phrases and the hear it say it, quiz and write is, has been helping me remember the hiragana and the pronunciation of the words/phrases. I recommended my friend try this program and he's trying out the trial first but says he likes what he sees. A definite tip: practice, practice, practice. I like that they tell me to listen to the audio twice, but I'll make sure to go back to what I've already learned from time to time to not forget anything. I also love that they start with the previous lessons conversation and ask you if you remember certain key words. Amazing course, I love it!
I gave customer service 3 stars because I haven't interacted with them as of yet (I haven't needed to thank goodness), but when that changes I'll give my opinion then as well .
Thanks Rocket Languages!
Rocket Japanese is really helping me learn. I've been around Japanese martial arts most of my life and always wanted to communicate in Japanese with some of our visiting instructors. I'm not quite ready yet, but I am definitely headed that way, thanks to your program. And, I've started a Trip to Japan coin can. Tokyo by 2020!!
I've been studying Japanese on and off for 10 years, and also spent 6 of those years living there. I've used nearly every program available, and Rocket Japanese is one of the absolute best there is! It's entertaining and challenging enough to make you look forward to studying and it's structured enough to ensure you know the material before moving on to the next lesson. A perfect balance! Rocket Japanese has got this down!

Stir 40 minutes a day.
Voilá!
Am an expatriated Swede who after 8 years (!) in Japan still had not been able to get over the Japanese lingo threshold. As it was just not going to happen by itself, I dedcided to do something about it. During the trial period, I was already communicating with confidence. This is definitely the to-go-to-product for learning a language.
In around a week, I have almost caught up to what I learned in 2 years of my school's curriculum. The up-front price that they ask for may seem intimidating for most people at first but I can assure you that it is worth every dollar. You may as well be saving money by investing in Rocket Languages as it is a one-time purchase as opposed to its' competitors. I've only barely scratched the surface of this learning tool, but if it's as good as I think it is then I have nothing to worry about.
Nonetheless, it's not perfect (for most people) and it shouldn't be your only resource if you're learning Japanese but if it is then I guess it's good if you are an absolute beginner and want to focus solely on grammar/speaking. (I have not touched the kanji yet so I can't say too much about that)
Overall, this is definitely worth checking out if you are serious about learning a language.
I was pleasantly surprised by Rocket Japanese, I had tried other language learning websites before. But, none of them gave me the feeling of control that Rocket Japanese gives. With this website I can choose what I want to learn: when, for how long, and how much I want to cover. I think anyone serious about Rocket Japanese should at least give it a try.
Finally, a course in Japanese that actually works for me! After numerous attempts to learn the beautiful but challenging language of Japanese through grammar books, CDs, and various software programs, I finally found Rocket Japanese, and now I feel that I am learning to speak and understand Japanese, instead of experiencing frustration and failure.
Awesome, provided an easy way to learn reading, writing and listening Japanese language.
Out of all the courses I've used, I've easily learned the most from this one.
Some of the other resources I've used have been heavily focused on trial and error, and they leave you with only a vague understanding of the language. They'll pair a sound with some pictures or a rough translation of what the words mean and you're supposed to just repeat the sounds and hope that you kind of understand them. This may work especially well for romance languages if you're coming to it as an English-speaker, but not for something as far-removed from English as Japanese.
This course does something I haven't seen any other course do, and it explains exactly why sentences are structured the way they are. This makes it much easier to learn the language because it gives you room to experiment with the words you're learning. Just knowing how particles work and how sentences are usually structured makes a big difference in how much information I end up retaining, because I'll actually know how to use a word I'm learning in a sentence.
This is a great course, and I highly recommend it even if it's not your first, but especially if it is.
Rocket Japanese is the best way to learn language! English isn't my native language, but I can easily understand Kenny and Sayaka. This is really important, 'cause Rocket Japanese like a game for me. I learn English and Japanese at the same time. Thank you so much! I'm really happy now and I believe that my dream about Japanese come true.
