"First Japanese lessons I've really liked", I wanted to use my pc to learn Japanese so that I could have audio and visual lessons at the same time. The first thing that bothered me about lessons I've tried is the use of Romanji. I thought it was be easier to use English phonetics to sound out Japanese. With Power Japanese, I found it makes much more sense to learn the sounds that go with the kana symbols (they start with hiragana). I already had Kana Pictographix Kana Pict-O-Graphix: Mnemonics for Japanese Hiragana and Katakana(using mnemonics to learn had been my learning style in school), a great complement to this product. The lessons point out the mistakes English speakers make when learning pronunciation (like su is said more like the Si in silk, rather than 'sue'). Then you move to the section that has you pronounce what you see with a 'playback' button and definition button for the word. The next screen has you type the hiragana based on what you think you heard. It keeps score and reminds you take take breaks every 20 minutes (to avoid cramming). I've only begun using this software, and I see no need to look for others. (*I should also note that I use the above mentioned Kana Pictographix, Pimsleur audio lessons, and Japanese films [not anime] together to learn Japanese-approaching from every angle). Hope this helps you in your search.

"A good product only when it's working", I'm running on Windows XP and the language program does not work correctly every time I shut down. In order to see the kana characters I have to reinstall the program all over again. The manufacturer needs a fix for this asap. Without being able to see the kana characters the program is totally useless. Any help with a fix for this would be greatly appreciated. Unless there's a fix, I would not buy this program.

"application breakdown", Have been using this for 2/3 weeks and was satisfied - not deliriously - but not unhappy - until tonite when it decided to no longer present the Kana but a jumble of Western characters where the Kana should be. Program now useless.

"good value but grammar was sloppy", IMO working through every module of this program will take 4-6 weeks so $50 is a pretty good deal. However some of the sentences taught are iffy: "Kanai udon desu." This translates to "My wife is a noodle." The graphics are nothing to write home about but the kana drills are excellent because they really force you to make fine (aural) distinctions between similar sounding kana. Overall Im satisfied with this purchase but wish they would: 1) upgrade their 1980s graphics 2) use correct grammar 3) choose more relevant (to every day life) katakana example words

"Good but", The psycology or approach of the "Lessons" is excellent but the programmer was sloppy. The S/W introduces you to the Kana characters pronouncing each and has the option to draw for you each character. Where there might be similarities the S/W shows both Kana for your comparison. The S/W then tests your knowledge of the Kana, writen and verbal.
My low rating is against the programming. I had to install it a second time. The first time The S/W called a different font than the Kana fonts. it did not have the Kana font up on "Typed" pages but a roman font which did not make sense in either language. Also, On some pages, primarily intoductions or side bars, a few characters or highlights are out of place.
