“Michael Rowley has created a visual vocabulary that is striking and, most importantly, memorable.”

- Wired Magazine

“It's hard to do Rowley's [work] justice with words, since the visual element is what makes it tick. He does a wonderful job, blending insight, imagination, and drawing technique...that far surpasses the old rote method, making kanji learning both appealing and accessible.”

- Stephanie Gold
