## What is Japanese Counters Master?

Japanese Counters Master makes learning Japanese counter words (josuushi) fun — for kids, adults, and Japanese learners alike.

Counter words like "ippon," "nihiki," and "sansatsu" are one of the trickiest parts of Japanese. This app helps you master 112 of them, step by step.

Every question, option, example, and explanation comes with furigana, so you can learn even if you can't read kanji yet.

• Daily Challenge: 5 fresh questions every day
• Time Attack: how many can you answer in 60 seconds?
• Levels & XP, streaks, combos and confetti for a game-like feel
• Daily quests and a friendly mascot, Jocchan, to guide you
• Hear the correct reading with built-in audio
