How are Japanese and Chinese writing different?
Japanese kanji and Chinese characters are very much the same. Japanese has 3 alphabets- hiragana (which is used for everyday writing), katakana (used for English words like "terebi" which is television), and kanji which is used instead of hiragana for nouns and adjectives etc. However, Chinese only have kanji, although they call it something else. The reason they are so alike is because the Japanese borrowed that alphabet off the Chinese, so a lot of Chinese characters will have the same meaning as Japanese kanji, although they will be pronounced differently.

Well, English is a European language, and Japanese is an Asian language. When each language / writing system was created, they had most likely no contact what-so-ever with each other. If you and a friend had to create your own writing systems without knowing anything about the others, I'm willing to bet they would look nothing alike.
