Kana- there are 2 types, katakana and hiragana.
Katakana is used for foreign loan words, foreign names, and it is used like italics.
Hiragana is used for native Japanese words, and is used as furigana above kanji, the Chinese characters in Japanese.
Furigana is just the pronunciation of the Kanji.

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.
