It is actually one of the easiest languages to learn. Unlike in English where the letter can sound different (eg. cough and through or thorough) they all only have one pronunciation. Verbs are so easy and there are actually no exception like in English (like the i before e thing and the dog dogs - sheep sheep thing). Everyone gets scared off by the characters but honestly one you know then it is so easy. (A cool thing that I like is book is similar to tree and 3 small tree symbols makes a forest)
Yes!!! one of the main reasons I want to learn japanese haha My friend took japanese as one of his classes he said writing it was the hardest but I'm slowly learning by watching anime haha
