Reviews

I'm really happy with my purchase. It's easy to use for beginners like me. Can't wait to learn Japanese for JLPT N5 so I can order JLPT N4 Bundle.
ありがとうございました

I'm really enjoying the way the Japanese language has been explained in each of these books. Easy to understand and remember! Very happy.

I had already some basic knowledge in Japanese (because I was always into japanese content) and I have improved a lot thanks to Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha!
I purchased this bundle a month ago but I thought I'd post my review earlier that I anticipated~
I'm half into the 100grammar (I have yet to check the rest of the books in this bundle) and I practice some kanji (from the Kanji100) in my free time. This language is pure art and I'm very well into arts and crafts so as a beginner they feel like a piece of cake to me! I am also greek and I noticed japanese have few common things with greek; we pronounce words exactly as we see them, we just replace the suffix of words to direct time and to adress people (most of the times) and we don't need either a plethora of articles or other particles to produce a full meaning of a phrase/sentence - which helps me a lot in undestarding!
All in all, in combination with the knowledge I already had and Beri Beri Shoshinsha, I can already read and undestand basic japanese in just a month~!

Lastly I'd like to thank Clay & Yumi for their assistance and the love they poured into makind these books~!

And if any potential buyers are reading my review, I'd like to let you know that these books provide a thorough explanation and a large variety of examples to assist into learning the correct pronunciations (with addional sound files for everything)!

Perfect follow up
Thank you

Another great set of readers. I've enjoyed them no end.

Yeah, and learned a lot, too.

My only gripes? I can't get the Anki Decks to work with my copy of Anki. Probably the unzipped files are in the wrong folder. I'll work on it some more.

Also, I wish you had an interactive stroke order tutorial along with the Kanji list. Maybe in the next revision?

FYI I use your material on my Kindle Fire, which is of course an Android tablet. Works a charm, except for the Anki decks.

I didn't even receive it and no one is replying my mails or anything. This is a scam

Amazing deal

Мне понравилось.

Alrighty - I got this eBook series for one main reason and that is to use as a tool to improve my speech cadence and intonation. I’m using the audio primarily to shadow the sentences. The approach i use is to import the audio of each sentence into a program where I can create an extended audio file that has all 30 sentences doubled back to back. Each book comes out about 10 minutes in length. The program I use allows me to slow down the audio if I want and I can record myself speaking with the recordings to check my intonation. It’s been very useful. Also, the .pdf file for the book allowed me to quickly copy out the text of the sentences and create a sentence list to read along with the audio. Since I’m trying to wean myself off of looking at furigana this has been helpful for kanji recognition. Very happy with this series.

I have loved all the Japan Shop books. The grammar books give clear concise explanations and you can easily access the sounds. Plus the Yonde Miyo series are great to read and listen to.

I love the stories, they make you forget you are learning because you are reading a nice interesting story. Difficulty is n4 worthy is my opinion. Some stories stil require looking at the explanation a lot, but this is easy! It is right below. I am a big fan.

Excellent collections of contents, one of a kind. Learning Japanese through the haiku of Basho, Issa and Shiki... I couldn't have wished for more, thank you so much!

Very easy to follow great product

I am amazed with this bundle and a few bundles I bought recently.
I can read the book either in pfd format of epub format in my iPad.
I can listen to the sound track while reading the material. Some books in Kindle can have the text-to-speech feature that texts are highlighted while listening. It is a good feature for new learning like me. I am sure that other reader like that as well. I hope we can have text-to-speech feature with your product.

This book is so interesting and enlightening! It gives access to many wonderful haikus. By explaining what would otherwise be lost in translation, it enables the reader to better understand these poems, and thus enjoy them even more. Thank you!

Brilliant thank you!

Clay was very helpful in sending me HARD COPIES after a few emails as I did not make it clear when I first Ordered the Package.
Thanks,
Malcolm

Great

It's the third time I started learning japanese and I never came very far. With this set I managed to learn the hiragana in about two weeks and now I'm starting with the katakana :) The books are fun and easy to understand (even if your from Germany like me) and I'm looking forward to the moment when I really can understand the whole Storys. And a great plus is that you get free updates. Great work. I recommend it to everyone who's willing to learn Japanese

I finished Frank to Obaasan yesterday. It was magical, especially the ending--I always did wonder what happened to a certain class of character when they grew up and got old.

All the books I've looked at so far have been great for review and further learning. The only improvement I could suggest would be to add workbooks to the readers, or maybe exercises in the books themselves.

Thanks again for the useful and enjoyable products.

They are short but concise enough for a dictation every week.

Fantastic value in a variety of formats. Amazingly entertaining content for learning. Brilliant!

I have starting studying the material and I think it is great!! I feel they are very helpful adding more information to the staff my teacher is giving to me. The voice things are perfect and so are the practice exercises. Thank you!!

This is so much to work on and everything is wonderfully done and explained. Great buy

I haven't delved too far into this bundle yet, but the books are really well done. Every sentence is walked through so you get an understanding of how sentence structure works as well as learning words etc. It's good fun to learn about a subject while learning Japanese! I genuinely feel a sense of achievement, and like i have actually learned something when i finish a section. The audio is very helpful, to check I'm reading with the right pronunciation, though can be a little awkward on my phone as I have to jump between audio and books, but that's a phone issue, nothing to do with the bundle. Well worth the money.
