About this app

This is an app that learns hiragana and katakana by watching, listening, and writing them.

--Rich content
You can practice not only the basics of hiragana and katakana, but also DAKUON_HANDAKUON and YOUON.
You can enjoy learning without getting bored with rich content such as SHIRITORI, katakana search, and challenges.
You can also check your practice performance with tests.

--Includes audio
In addition to the pronunciation of hiragana and katakana, we provide audio guidance on TOMERU, HANERU, and HARAU. Additionally, word pronunciations are included, so you can expect a better learning effect.

--Learn thoroughly from the shape
Rather than just learning by writing, you can practice while checking Japanese forms and TOMERU, HANERU, and HARAU. In addition, you can thoroughly review with the “Find Mistakes” function that finds incorrect letters and a function that allows you to check whether your writing is correct through AI judgment.

*shape
Check the shape of the letters. You can have fun checking it with a touch.

*Writing practice
You can learn the stroke order of hiragana and katakana by listening to the pronunciation. Easy to use! Each letter is marked with a writing order and a dotted line, so you can write it as is. Click the play button to see how to write. It also provides voice guidance for TOMERU, HANERU, and HARAU.

*Find incorrect letters
You can check whether you remember it accurately by learning to find incorrect hiragana and katakana.

*Writing 2
AI determines whether you wrote the hiragana and katakana correctly.
Accuracy will increase if you write while being conscious of TOMERU, HANERU, and HARAU.

--Check your skills with a test
You can check your skills through a listening test in which you listen to the pronunciation and select the appropriate letter, and a vocabulary test in which you select the appropriate letter by looking at a picture.

--Learn naturally while having fun
You can learn while having fun with SHIRITORI or Katakana Finder.

--challenge
You can compete for world rankings through listening and vocabulary tests. Study hard to aim for first place!

In addition, we added items such as boxes and toys, and roulette, so that even young children can have fun learning.

This app is recommended for beginners in Japanese.

*Word pronunciation is available in the paid version.

The game 100% helped me improve my memorization of hiragana (i only got as far as hiragana). I highly reccommend this app! I have an idea to improve the app: customization. A feature to select which groups to be tested on, choose how long the timer should be (or no timer at all), and how many randonly generated questions in total. For example, hiragana "b" group and "s" group, katakana "t" group and "m" group, 30 seconds timer, and 25 randomly generated questions.

It's the best app for beginning but the ads shows too often and it also covered the app. That's very annoying. If I were the app developers, I'd move the ads to on top not cover anything on the app.

Really great app for learning hiragana, probably the best I have found so far. Although, recently I haven't been able to sign in using my google account. Every time I try it just loads forever and nothing ever happens. I will still give it a 5 star review because you can still practice without a google account.
