Chinese. Japan is a dying nation. Between 2002 and 2025, more than 10,000 schools have closed there, with 500 closing a year still being the average rate.

Kanbun. You can't read books prior to the 20th century without learning classical Chinese. Unfortunately it's harder to learn than latin and is barely intelligible with modern Chinese. Also to read anything prior to the 17th century raw you need some highly specialized training because this was before Kangxi radicals were introduced.

Unless you plan to work and live or do extensive business with either of the, then neither. They have next to no value outside of their respective countries.
