If you enjoy learning it, it will come easy, but still challenging.

To be more applicable to the actual language though, there are hard parts and there are easier parts, for instance, you don't have to conjugate between person with verbs which saves you a lot of annoying mental conjugation. Then, there are also parts that make it more difficult than other languages, like learning 2000+ characters if you want a real mastery of the language.

I find that after learning the kana and basic particles(wa, ga, no, o, etc.), then learning kanji has helped my progress a lot. It places a meaning, sound, and picture together into one character that I then memorize.

I get confused when people say that you don't have to conjugate in Japanese (I may have the definition of conjugate wrong, or something).What is -γΎγ—γŸ? What are plain and polite? Positive and negative? Don't these all require certain modifications to be carried out for them to be interpreted correctly? This may be off topic, but I think it does concern learning the language. This is one of the things that I'm having the most trouble with XD

I don't mind if it's hard or easy.I love studing japanese , it's fun when you learn about thier culture or how do they speak ( this is a cat = kori wa neko desu ) thinking about the (is = desu) in the last is very weird for me yet intresting ^_^

Really, you should just take it at a slow pace, or whatever suits you.
It depends on how fast you learn.

Mixing all the kanji and kana can get confusing, which is why taking it in parts sounds a little less overwhelming..

For the language, start with basics and sentence structure.

Any language can be difficult to learn, it just depends on how you go about it.
