Learning Japanese

I want to learn japanese in order to play untranslated visual novels. My question is if pimsleur is a good idea for me or not? It seems to be primarily focused upon audio, I am not sure if this will be a waste or essential in developing an understanding of japanese. I would like to learn japanese as fast as possible and this is my first time learning a new language so I am very lost. Thank you in advance.

Yeah I'm really sorry about that I saw the japanese general thread immediately after I posted.. I felt like an idiot and I didn't know how to delete threads on the text board. I was slightly drunk too. Anyways thanks you poster >>2

I have enough motivation and I don't mean to brag but I am a genius so I will learn this language very quickly. Thanks for all the hospitality even though I am a blatant new person and didn't condense, I know how frustrating that can be.
