I'cve been learning japanese for 2 years now so I already have most of teh basic higrana mastered so I decided on this upper beginer story selction. So far it's been really easy and the way things are sounded out in the audio files makes it easyer to sound out correctly.

I love that the way they explain the stories is simple and easy to understand. Great for beginners ❤️ looking forward to finish the remaining stories ☺️

The format of the books is what is so great about them. They give you explanations at the bottom of the story so you can still go through it and try to understand it without having to constantly look things up. You still have to make sense of it though, which they give you a full English version to compare to. There is also a full Japanese version as well.

Not only am I enjoying the books, I believe they contacted me almost immediately to thank me for the purchase. They are very kind and awesome people! I even ended up getting online lessons (for the first time) with a friend of theirs. I've done that twice now and I'm so glad I did!

After dabbling around with learning Japanese casually for a few years, this bundle was exactly what I needed to focus my efforts into something more serious. Highly recommended.

I have been learning Japanese on my own for years. While I knew pieces of what was in this bundle, this bundle provided some key pieces that had been missing from my learning process (the hiragana readers for example). Even though I already knew hiragana and katakana I have been going through the materials, and the vocabulary along with the crossword puzzles have made the learning much more fun. I am looking forward to coupling up the rest of the bundle with the rest of my studies.

I like folk stories and Japanese folk stories are one of the most intriguing stories I've ever heard and those were two main reasons why I bought these books.
Also, I have a good experience with other books from this author and I knew what to expect. A lot of fun and a lot of study material.
Each book contains a few stories that are presented in 3 forms. First, there is a Japanese text with furigana for easy reading and dictionary below for easy understanding. Second, there is a story fully written in Japanese only and the third form is summary in English.
The great thing about these books is that you get free audio with normal and slow speed.

I am grateful to have found this website and I am confident that I will find what I need here, as I pursue my desire to learn Japanese. I am very satisfied with my purchase of this Learn Japanese with Stories [All 10 Volumes Bundle]. The bundle is well set out and highly portable - i have been able to access both on my PC and my phone. I found my experience to be blissful - not only was the bundle great value but it was delivered to me instantly and also with a follow up email to make sure that I have received and able to access everything okay :) Easy 5 stars for the purchase experience, the customer service and the bundle itself!

I had the most amazing purchase experience with this website. I am a bit suspicious usually, so I made some research. Then I tried my luck and boght this bundle for my husband. Everything went smooth and I received what I bought in less than two minutes. My husband says the material is amazing and very helpful for his learning process of this amazing language. Thank you

As with everything by the Japan Shop, this is again a beautifully crafted bundle that offers a lot of value to beginning Japanese students.

This bundle offers a bit of everything, Hiragana, Katakana, Kanji, grammar, a story.

My level is currently N4 (lower intermediate). With reading material in Japanese, I always get stuck with some structures I don't understand, but these texts with running gloss and grammar notes solve the problem completely. I'm looking forward to new titles, even for a more advanced level.

Perfect as usual funny and very useful

The more varied ways you can see the vocabulary in different books and contexts, the more likely are you to be able to use those words and recall those words. I bought their books because I understand this. I know that this will help me start thinking in the language. I also understand that journaling is key. I journal the vocabulary and go through these books. Its worth it. I am very happy with my purchase. I am very sad that I didn't do this earlier. (I waited a full year!!!)

Great value and can be downloaded instantly!

Everyday dialogues you can use as a beginner or intermediate, and somewhat as a good filler for your immersion in the language.

I've taken Japanese language courses in my high school, and more advanced courses in college. It's been awhile since i read anything with kanji so i forgot most of the basics. I just started first chapters in the N5 vocabulary, reading, kanji, grammer bundle. It's such a great resource because it gets right down to business, there is kanji in early reading with furigana (katakana on top) so that i can understand what that kanji is. It's fully explained below as well, as it goes over each line. The practice kanji pages are nice, you can print them and practice the correct stroke order for each of the kanji. Without practice you lose a lot of little little grammer nuances and the grammer portion does a great job of helping you relearn a lot of what makes japanese hard. If you want a great introduction to the language and not afraid to jump right in, these books will get you going on your way to be proficient in speaking and reading Japanese. The set is a bargain, and comes in the various e-book formats and a bonus is the sound clips especially if you have a hard time pronouncing. Give them a try, i'm sure you'll enjoy them as much as i am!

I am someone who has struggled to find material to read that is on my level (not super basic nor advanced, somewhere there in the middle)
This pack has been very good to absorb a more natural usage of structures I’ve seen during the years.
I would definitely recommend it to those who are more interested in putting hours of self study to learn the language.

This is a great value and very comprehensive course for providing either a good self contained, self study introduction to Japanese, or as supplementary material for an existing class based course.

So much care was put into making these books. They are a great resource to get started reading and learning Kanji. I am just getting to understand and know Hiragana. And these books are a natural next step.

The bundle also includes well-made flash cards for Hiragana which I found very useful.

I have not tried out the audio files yet, but I have confidence these will be just as awesome.

We are so impressed with this bundle of media in Japanese for our upper beginner student. The audio files are both slower and natural speed with the engaging text make this an accessible, interesting and engaging addition to her private study.

High quality bundle with a low price. The audio recordings are great and the documents are perfect for looking thing up, learning, or reading as the audio playing back. Also the themes presented are somwhat specially and nowhere found in this comprehensive type of learning material.

This product is phenomenal. I've been studying Japanese for a year but barely doing an effort to go beyond the easy. One day I was scrolling down posts on Instagram when I found an ad promoting this, and as soon as I read the description I instantly wanted to acquire it. All I can say is:, my money was not wasted. Fantastic job guys and thank you!

I was pleasantly surprised by the concept of the toolkit, and reading the Introduction was essential to understand how it should be used.

Good value for money. Instant download available and free download when there is updated modules.
Useful dialogues for beginner to intermediate learning. I like how the explanation is simple and easy to follow. I like there is always little hiragana written for all the kanji, to improve reading and recognising the kanji.
Once I completed the dialogues Bundle, it is likely I will go for other bundle. It is so much fun learning Japanese this way in my own pace.

REALY cool!
Thank you for the option!!
available for kindle / other readers and PDF (paper-form for printout)
also mp3 in slow / normal and fast spoken - VERY good!!

also thx for the updates :)

It is fun, there is a lot of material, and I like that the information is broken down in pieces that are easily "digestible", even for someone like me who has English as a second language. The mp3s are amazing too! I definitely do not regret investing in this, it makes learning go smoothly.

When I ordered this magazine I had no idea what this magazine contained or how it would fit in to my Japanese culture and language learning library (growing larger everyday) that help me attain my goal of not only being fluent with the Japanese language (I am half Japanese/half African American, fluent in "in home" Japanese) but also able to read and write with college level fluency. This magazine is an interesting mix due to its interesting articles written in English along with a wealth of knowledge about the Japanese language/culture. I was pleasantly surprised to find the depth of explanation to which the English translation of the Japanese writings and comics that this magazine provided. Through this magazine I have added a new level of understanding the intricacies of the written Japanese language/culture. Reading this magazine is also like taking a trip back into time bringing back great memories such as the article on Tomagotchi (my children were obsessed). Worth every penny!!!

This shirt is great. Standard t-shirt shape, cotton, and the details of the wording are directly in the middle. The sizing is current for what I was expecting. Thank you!

As somebody with zero k owl edge of Japanese and not even knowing where to start with a lack of teachers in my areas, this package is a great starting block

I love these books, I cannot recommend them enough to anyone wanting to study and immerse themselves in the Japanese culture and language.
We live close to the Japanese cultural epicenter in San Diego. As someone who has always been interested in visiting the land of the rising sun,
I feel this will give me an upper hand when I not only communicate locally, but when I do travel.
I recommend all their titles.

I needed reading resources, chose these, and they're exactly what I want. Makoto is well-balanced, with short passages, longer passages, cultural information and comprehensive explanations. It enables the user to read fluently without frustration, but also to get to grips with complex or unfamiliar structures and vocabulary. It has enough material to last me the whole month, and, because it is so interesting and diverse, I return to it time and time again. The history reader is going to take me a long time to get through, but I'm really looking forward to the challenge. Again, it has a high level of supporting material, enabling the user to read fluently and to learn at the same time. I know nothing about Japanese history, and I feel that this puts me at a disadvantage. These materials will help me to start to put that right. I bought the JLPT 5 materials because a friend recommended them. We are working through them together now, and it's helping us both to improve our Japanese. All of the resources are very good value for money. They are all well-planned, with excellent learning support. The authors clearly know the difficulties faced by learners of Japanese, and they do everything in their power to ease and accelerate the acquisition of this crazy and wonderful language.

Instructions and how-to’s were complete and incredibly easy to download given the different formats that are compatible across all my devices. They also included bonuses that were very helpful. Would consider buying more in the future once I finish the beginner level.
