They look like originals, but it might be worth checking with the seller.  Especially for 'Beginning Japanese' -  although NTIS sell this (which I *think* guarantees it's public domain status, multilingual books sells a similar/the same (?) course, published by Yale.)

Perhaps others can clarify this...

Excuse me. Could you please tell me why is the Japanese not published on the website. It is quite an important language.

Its importance has nothing to do with its absence from this website.

The bottom line is that no one so far has been able to digitalize a FSI course for Japanese. Moreover, it is uncertain whether there even exists a usable FSI course for Japanese that's in the public-domain. NTIS sells "Beginning Japanese", but so far no one is 100% sure if it would be eligible for posting on this website because of the uncertain legal/copyright status.
