It depends on what your native language is. The language of Japan isn't too hard for english speakers to learn, but it's not as easy as spanish due to sentence structure.
Example: The sentence structure for "My name is Dude."... If you were to translate the equillivant sentence from japanese to english, it would look like "My name Dude is."
A large amount of nouns in japanese come from english which helps for english speakers.
The hard part is the accent, reading, knowing the proper tone/pitch of each word you say, and finding someone to practice with outside of a computer unless you're in Japan
If you're interested in learning japanese I would suggest memorizing Hiragana and Katakana first.
