im an american, but (romaji) hajimashite! i love japan also. if you want to learn japanese, it is very hard, so you will have to be driven to speak in their accent/language/writing. in japan, everyone lives a good life.they currently have a president, and they are highly populated. the are technologically advanced compared to america, and is highly,highly urban.

How hard it is, depends on each school. There is no general rule. But 13-year old have already learned 1,500 or so kanji. So you need to learn all of them if you want to catch up with them. It's very hard. Addition: In fact, if you go to a public junior high school, it's not so hard. Since junior high school is compulsory education in Japan, you can graduate even if you have very poor grade. But the problem is how to get into a high school. You must take an entrance exam. It's the hard part.
