are the chinese characters important on learning nihongo?

Like everyone else said, yes. It's important.

One more reason that I didn't see listed.

Some words have two meanings, but the kanji for those words are totally different. So knowing kanji will help you to understand which meaning is being implied. (In a reading scenario)
