From the Author:
"...what better way to learn Japanese if you like manga than to do it through these kinds of materials, right? This is why I created the Learn Japanese with Manga series. They have helped many Spanish speaking people (and also French, German, Italian, Portuguese and Catalan) learn Japanese. I'm very happy that the books are now getting an English language release.
I think you don't need to be a manga or anime fan to learn Japanese with the Learn Japanese With Manga series. Of course, if you already like manga, anime, and other forms of popular Japanese culture, then it is an obvious way to enter. But if you don't, it's not really a problem at all. The Learn Japanese With Manga books are aimed at anybody who has an interest in learning Japanese. It's quite an easy way to approach the language and to have fun while learning it." —Marc Bernabe
