Made for all levels of Japanese learners.
Beginner Japanese learners (JLPT N5) can start with basic greetings, and gradually move to more complex sentences, with lots of repetition to help you retain what you learn throughout the course. Start off with romaji reading aids for hiragana and katakana and hide it when you’re ready.

Intermediate Japanese learners (JLPT N4 and N3) can begin reading more elaborate stories while learning to use Japanese grammar in context. Hide furigana or use difficult words only to gain confidence with reading kanji.

Advanced Japanese learners (JLPT N2 and N1) will enjoy our classic Japanese story adaptations and our original stories. Our app also covers topics like everyday life in Japan, funny stories, business Japanese, latest trends in Japan, and Japanese history.
