A relaxed, gentle simulation RPG that teaches Japanese through idle play and cozy progression.

What players say
Players praise the idle RPG approach to Japanese, calling it a gentle alternative to Duolingo that teaches through comprehensible input and gradual unlocks. Some wish for UI customization like dark mode, while one reviewer reports a critical kanji font bug that went unacknowledged for over three months.
