This paper discusses five types of Japanese textbooks aimed at improving the communication skills of pre-intermediate learners. By analyzing the syllabus and model conversations of these textbooks, this paper aims to highlight the point of conversation in Japanese language education. On top of that, it proposes the development of AI-based Japanese conversation teaching materials. From the analysis, it is inferred that many textbooks adopted a topic-based syllabus. Furthermore, the analysis demonstrated that conversations generally progress according to the flow of "introduction - main part - ending." In the future, I would like to develop AI conversation materials that can serve as conversation partners.
