Getting started with japanese

Greetings /lang/,

I'm intrested in learning Japanese and need your help.

So, I'm reading the Japanese introduction on Wikibooks and it says for me to first master Kana (hiragana, katakana) and kanji. Is there an order on how I should learn each one or learn them all together? Say should I study hiragana for 3 hours then study katakana for 3 hours or learn them both as I go along? I ask this because I feel afriad I might get confused and stressed out. I want this to be fun and not feel like work.

Right now I'm using Wikibooks to study kana and kanji so If you have any books or websites you can recommend for studing kana and kanji let me know, thanks.

Get a teacher. You can only learn so far from books. I'm doing Japanese at uni, and i'm in japan now as part of my course. If you're honestly interested and not one of those part time "kawaii desu ne" people who seem to be plaguing the internet at the moment!
