✦ AI summary

Players praise this game as a fun and effective tool for practicing and reinforcing hiragana, katakana, and basic Japanese vocabulary, particularly highlighting the engaging mini-games, helpful visual aids, and cute cat-themed presentation. However, some criticize it as overpriced compared to free alternatives like Duolingo or Realkana, and note that the game's pacing in the conveyor belt mini-game is too fast for actual learning of new characters rather than just reinforcing already-known ones.

Fun and educational. It's light, but also a good way to get more hirigana and katakana practice in. The cat sounds and music are also a nice touch. Subarashi desu! I look forward to the Kanji game. This game also has some kanji practice in it.

This is a great and fun game to learn hiragana, katakana and some basic Japanese vocabulary. There are visuals to help with learning the hiragana and katakana, and I found them quite useful and relevant to the characters. There are two mini-games to test your listening and reading for the hiragana and katakana. The 'Order Sushi' mini-game is to serve the cat with the correct hiragana or katakana character. Each cat has a different pronunciation, and you need to click the correct sushi with the character to serve the cat. The 'Conveyor Sushi' mini-game has various sushi with different hiragana or katakana characters on the conveyor belt. You have to type the correct pronunciation to get rid of the specific sushi from the conveyor belt. Both mini-games allow you to choose whether basic hiragana, katakana, or a mixture of all characters appear in the game. My only frustration is that when you leave one of the mini-games and return to it later, the choices will reset to the default settings. It would also be useful if there were a setting to select all categories at once instead of going through every page to select the category to display for the sushi. However, all those are minor i…

I went into this game already knowing Hirigana and Katakana, but want to start learning more vocabulary. This is a great way to go about it! The images that correspond with the words, coupled with the repetition will really help me memorize them over time. I also like that it lets me start with N5 and leave out some of the more advanced N4 and N3 words for now, until I get more comfortable with the beginner kanji. Well worth the purchase price! P.S. If you don't know Hirigana and Katakana, this repetitious method will teach you very fast. It's very similar to the flashcard style of Realkana dot com.

I am loving this series for learning. The dev is doing a great job! My only complaint is the Ai voices. It makes it really hard to understand what they're saying, I wish it was just native speakers.

Do not buy just to learn Japanese your better of using Duolingo to learn Japanese then play this game.

it's alright. honestly, it's not really worth the money. if you wanna practice your kana, i'm sure there's a better, cheaper/free app you can choose that'll help more than this.
