I learned Japanese, years ago. Lived in Japan 4 years and took 8 semesters of Japanese at U of M. Chinese Mandarin is probably the language to learn now.

Go French. It's one of the most beautiful sounding languages out there, sounds and words just rolling off your tongue.
Plus if you're first language is English, you'll have an easier time with it.
Japanese is fucked >.<

I never knew a language in depth except English before I learned Japanese. But I had taken Turkish in elementary school, and knew a lot of Spanish because of living by the border.
Japanese is NOT very hard. It only has 2 irregular verbs, a lot fewer sounds than english, and the grammar rules are fixed. There aren't the exceptions like in English. Also, most sounds in Japanese are at least similar to English sounds.

Why not learn something cool, like German?

I meant @OP but quick replied...
I mean, if you already know 2 western languages, I'd say to learn Japanese. A lot of similar characters between Japanese/Chinese/Korean too...
If all you know is English, French is cool. I like to bust out the accent from time to time since I took it growing up, I can impersonate it very well.

I learned Japanese instead of Spanish because i decided I would rather be able to talk to the CEO of the company rather than the hotel maid or gardener.

I just think Spanish is sooo boring. When I took a year of it, I felt like a Spanish soap actor while speaking it. >.>
Japanese and French are sexy and badass.

French is just sexy. There is something about a french accent that turns me on.
Homo. I would go gay in a second for a french accent on a guy. 
but I like it better when my girl says stuff in french. Humma humma.

French is my main language, i love it ! there's a lot of similarities between the french and the english language, so it will probably be more easier for you. But, Japanese sounds awesome. + it's a really original culture. LEARN BOTH

Learn Japanese dude, at least then you'll know a language that actually sounds cool. I took French in high school and hated it, makes you sound like you have a lisp half the time.
