I found Japanese to be a beautiful and very interesting language, and I'm very excited to be able to learn it.

We at Rocket also share a love for the Japanese language and culture. It's great to hear you're enjoying the course. Keep up the good work!
The (new) japanese course #1 was great, it made me buy #2 ... which is a mess. The audio is not good, the japanese accent of the english speaker is wrong, the delay for repeating the word is wrong and the content is sometime the same as #1.
To make it worse, the content is highly specific, like opening a bank account, which is really boring and useless for a beginner.

It is an excellent self paced Japanese course where you can study it at your available time.

Thank you for your review. It's so great to hear that you are enjoying learning Japanese with us and finding the course material practical in your learning. We wish you all the best!
Course #1's audio lessons were really excellent. The timing of the dialogue/repeat sections is spot on, the native speakers have very clear accents, and you learn a lot quite quickly. It is easy to put them on in the background and make several additional passes through the material to cement the teachings. I found the accompanying grammar lessons to be difficult to retain in the 'mostly text' format, and they often don't follow along with where you are in the audio lessons at all.
Course #2 is somewhat the opposite. The native speakers (and host) all have distinct accents, the dialogue timing is a mess, and the content is all over the place. One minute you're basically redoing a lesson from Course #1, and the next you're totally lost when everything switches to 'casual' speech, which you've had almost no exposure to thus far. Alternately, the grammar courses are now structured to expound upon specific parts of the audio, which is an improvement.
I was VERY happy with Course #1 overall, but I am soured on the audio portion of Course #2. When the dialogue-repeat sections sometimes go word-by-word, but give you 10 seconds to speak, it becomes very difficult to learn the line in entirety.
