Ratings and reviews

I understand zero Japanese and is looking forward to learn the lovely language. This app seems like the perfect medium. Unfortunately, once i started the app i'm faced with 2 pages of Japanese text that i have no idea what it is saying. I don't want to click the green buttons without knowing anything. Can anybody help me and tell me what the pages are saying? Are there any in-app purchases involved when using the app? Please help. Thank you.

For the English only crowd, this is what kids watch in Japan. This is the educational programming in Japan. An excellent resource to study Japanese with.

I find it very useful on learning japanese language, and it is making me read faster than ever!
