E is a Japanese Kana. It can be represented in Hiragana or Katakana.
Hiragana - え- A good way to remember this is Z with Extra. (Looks like a Z with an extra little bit on top)
Katakana - エ - Basically anything that will remind you the E sound looks like an I. Think of New Zealanders maybe, or IE (Internet explorer). Etc.
E is also a word meaning painting (noun). This can be written with Hiragana, or as a Kanji.
This is the Kanji for E (painting);画

U

U is a Japanese Kana pronounced 'ooh'. It can be represented by either katakana or hiragana.
Hiragana - う- This is my favorite hiragana to memorize. The long line is an old woman hunching her way down the street. Suddenly a brick falls on her back. she says, "Ooh!"
Katakana - ウ- I think of this as Ooh, look down there! (Looks like an arrow pointing down).
A relatively recent practice in Japanese is to add tentens (" Dots) to the katakana character and use it to express the V sound. It looks like this -ヴ- and is usually only used in Manga.
