Does Japan have enough great literature to make it worth it to

no but they have a lot of great anime

Of course they do.

However, if the only reason you'd learn the language is for literature - don't bother.

You won't understand Japan, and therefore, Japanese literature.

Great film. If you haven't seen, "The Burmese Harp," by the same director, you should.

There is a lot of great lit here but you have to sort through the huge amount of shit that gets published and pushed on bored housewives and gullible school kids.

I've liked what I read from Kawabata, Tanizaki, Oe, Abe, Dazai, Mishima so I would say yes.
