Muy buena y regular a la vez

Es interesante como está planteada la App como una competición y un ranking, para animarte a mejorar. También está bien que se hable de cosas de la cultura japonesa.
Lo mejor de todo es que puedas ir apuntando las palabras que has memorizado y cuáles no.
Como crítica, y muy severa, es que no aparce nada de escritura japonesa, todo en romaji lo que hace que muchas preguntas de los test pierdan sentido, y son casi todas.
