Not for pure beginners
I had been learning Japanese for about 6 months before I bought this book, and I'm glad I had that foundation otherwise this book would probably have made little sense and maybe even have been discouraging. It skips a lot, assumes you've learnt hiragana and katakana, and uses a few manga snippets to teach you basic words and phrases without explaining much grammar in detail. For me, it was fun for awhile because I just needed a break from Genki, Duolingo and Anki cards, and it served that purpose, but this won't function as your only (or even main) resource for learning Japanese.
