Hei! Thanks for dropping a message! c:
So they are technically two very different languages . So Japanese is a lot easiest to learn because it is not so much tone based as it is more writing form as you can just speak the words just as they are.
Japanese: everyone can pronounce japanese words, almost like English. But in Chinese they have 4 different tones for just , for example saying SHI, you can say in different ways. And in Chinese it's very important to pronounce the words correctly or it's not udnerstandabloe.
Writing: Chinese writing is extremly hard and you need long time to learn them, to be able to read a newspaper you need at least 2000 characters to be saved in your brain. And in Japanese, they have also almost the same (kanji) chinese characters but they also use 2 different alphabetical system, katakana and hiragana which you can learn in a few months. And you can use them to talk to japanese people, but you won't be able to read everything in Japan because they use a lot of kanji, or only kanji in japanaese newspaper for example.
