About this app

Meet your kodama — a little forest spirit who only grows when you speak Japanese.

KodamaTalk turns daily Japanese conversation into something you actually look forward to. Talk out loud with your spirit companion for 10–15 minutes a day, and watch it hatch, bond with you, and evolve as your Japanese improves.

YOUR COMPANION LISTENS — AND TALKS BACK
• Real voice conversations powered by AI — no scripts, no multiple choice
• Your spirit speaks natural Japanese, gently rephrasing your mistakes the way a native friend would (no red marks, no lectures)
• Subtitles in Japanese, romaji, and English — toggle them off as you improve
• Conversations adapt to your level, from complete beginner (N5) and up

A COMPANION, NOT A TEXTBOOK
• Choose your spirit: Kogitsune the fox, Kohouou the phoenix, or Kokirin the qilin
• Name it and raise it through three life stages — it remembers what you talk about
• Daily streaks, Omamori streak protection, badges, and friendly leaderboards

LEARN WHAT STICKS
• Every new word and phrase you use is saved automatically
• Smart flashcard reviews (spaced repetition) — they even work offline
• Session recaps show the grammar and vocabulary you just practiced
• Role-play 12+ real-life scenes: café, konbini, trains, izakaya, interviews

MADE FOR BUSY LEARNERS
• 10–15 minutes a day is enough
• A weekly recap celebrates how far you've come
• Warm reminders that never guilt-trip you
• Track speaking time, fluency growth, and JLPT-level estimates
