Well the kids in Japan are going to be learning more of English and going to stop learning kanji. Yes this is good in a way, as I thought kanji was too hard lol, but bad in other ways. Kanji has been with Japan since... ever! Yes, and to lose it for another language, I think is a little shame. BUT still I think its a step forward because Japanese pople who learnt English in Japan are really crap lol! :P The best way of learning English is to learn it in England!
