In most respects, this is just one of many compact romanized Japanese dictionaries. What sets it apart and led me to consult it more than I might have otherwise is the fact that it marks rising and falling tones (i.e. to differentiate hashi 'chopsticks' from hashi 'bridge'). It isn't the most crucial aspect of Japanese, but it's a worthwhile bit of information to have on hand and this is an inexpensive source.
