I'm extremely satisfied with Rocket, I have been studying Japanese for about a month and already know more than 100 words and have gotten some clue about the grammar. I mostly know 'survival phrases' at this point but could probably get by in a simple Japanese conversation. It has really been the fastest progress I've ever made with learning a language.
It is good at making you learn through repetition, by reading, writing, and listening, but not nearly as agonizingly repetitive as something like Duolingo.
It is good at encouraging you to keep going by showing your streak and having reminders that tenacity is key and you're making good progress.
I think the fact that it is a one-time payment rather than a subscription makes it worth it.
I appreciate how in-depth the lessons are and how they walk you through each and every word and their nuance. I also appreciate the culture lessons.
One complaint I have is that the vocabulary lists in audio lessons are often incomplete, or only include a word within a sentence and don't provide a definition for the word itself.
Also, words and phrases from previous lessons are often brought up again in later lessons very rarely.

I learned Japanese for the first time, in Japan, 32 years ago. I bought this course to refresh and expand my skills. It is fantastic. Love it. It makes my brain work hard and it's doing exactly what I wanted it to. I will keep plugging away, and keep improving. A great course, with a great, easy to follow format. It's like having your own private Japanese tutor.

Rocket Languages is essential for anyone who is serious about learning a new language. The course is designed to help us start having real life conversations from the very first lesson. Instead of wasting time learning useless vocabulary, Rocket Languages teaches words and phrases that we are likely to use to everyday. So, if you want to immerse yourself in a new language, ditch those other language apps that are gimmicky and flash card based and instead invest in learning a new language with depth and understanding.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Mohit, thank you so much for taking the time to leave a review. It's awesome to hear that you are enjoying the conversational focus woven into our Rocket Japanese course, and the comprehensive approach we take to language learning. All the best with your Japanese language-learning journey!

After stopping for a while, I recently picked up this course again, and wow, have I learned a lot in such a short period of time. Even though my native language (Mandarin/Cantonese) is more similar to Japanese than a lot of languages, the language is still quite difficult to learn. However, it was easy to start again because everything about this website was very easy, efficient, and satisfying to use. Overall, this is a very underrated language learning tool. :)

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Jason, thank you for your review. It's great that you can see yourself making such clear progress in a short amount of time and finding that the Japanese course is intuitive and easy to follow. Happy learning!

I'm greatly enjoying the experience, but i wish the tests were more comprehensive. the tests only consist of 5 questions, nothing difficult, nothing that requires a lot of memory, and they're not randomized (the position of the answer) so it's difficult not to remember the position of the answer vs the actual answer itself after the first time.

Response from Rocket Languages

Hi Donald, thank you for your review. It's awesome to hear you are enjoying Rocket Japanese. We appreciate your feedback in regard to the Quiz reinforcement activity, and it has been passed on to our Product Development team to take into account when they make course updates. All the best with your Japanese language-learning!
