Best
Get this and forget about the headache that resource gathering or what to use is ,this will get you to the level where you can learn directly from stuff that you want to actually watch
Avoid the Reader at all costs.
It’s a good app and platform for video content but they rush features and updates without fixing fundamental flaws. The parser is completely scuffed. Migaku suggests readings on Japanese words which are just completely wrong, kanji have multiple readings and the app teaches incorrect readings all the time. It’s fine on video content because you can hear when the parser is wrong and you can choose the right one, but for reading content it’s actively teaching you incorrect Japanese which you mine and solidify into memory. Forcing people to have to relearn incorrect words. It’s pretty unacceptable.
Avoid the Reader at all costs, it teaches incorrect Japanese and it will poison your learning. Stick to video content only.

Great app
This app is so essential to my Japanese learning journey. It's so well thought and designed. I love the Anki cards app, but this one takes it to another level.
Unusable most of the time
I really like what they did there. The service is just awesome - if it was working. I haven’t been able to use the App as well as the Browser version for the past weeks and mostly months due to the application being just super buggy. Multiple bugs, small ones but also multiple ones where each one is just breaking the service completely. I cannot recommend for at least the next year until they maybe release the first stable version. Please fix!

You can’t test it out… they hit you with a paywall for super high prices without an option to try it first…
Incredible for Japanese, Best Language Learning Platform I’ve Tried
This is legit one of the best language learning platforms you could use. Seriously, their academy course combined with their superior SRS flashcard system (better than Anki imo), is so effective and makes studying something I genuinely look forward to. Kanji is actually fun now, when I used to be afraid of it. Learning the foundation of the language is so well explained and I always feel I have a perfect amount of studying each day to feel progression yet not be overloaded. Seriously, try this out. Best experience i’ve had language learning yet.

You’re gonna have to fork over the money…
Yeah, no, I don’t know what I was expecting. With the advertising I saw online I thought this would’ve been at least somewhat free, but no the app shoves it’s subscription service in your face and your only other option is to be set back to the sign in page like a filthy cheap scrub. Obviously this app is an amazing resource and I hope the developers continue to prosper in their pursuit of making learning better! However, with all the other apps that teach your target language with similar pricing, I sadly can’t recommend it if you’re already drowning in services (ie: bunpro, Duolingo, and whatever else is on the market.) But if you’re not me go right ahead the UI is amazing and it looks engaging!

Migaku helps with consistency
I love Migaku since I can consistently do lessons everyday at my own pace. Sometimes I can do a 15 minute lesson, other times I can stretch it to 45 minutes.

Waste of time
incomplete
Not enough information for learning and it’s not free trial. Wasted my money
Decent concept but terribly buggy, incomplete, and also AI-reliant
There’s AI stuck in all parts of this, and even though they have settings to opt out (clicked about 6 settings to turn off the AI and was stuck with 2 ways it could not be removed), there was still more ways the AI was popping up without approval. I clicked on a word that was highlighted (just to mark it as known!) and it was like “here’s a ChatGPT summary”. Don’t want that! Let a dictionary pop up, not a paragraph of customerservice nonsense, made by a 50% inaccurate nonsense machine.
The browser extension in Chrome was buggy and slow, and kept crashing. The iOS app doesn’t even want to review flashcards after you’ve reviewed them for the day. (What if I want to see them again?)
The website you log into doesn’t have info - it’s a landing page and not much else. No dashboard of stats, nor card review access.
There’s no vocab course for the language they support.
There’s not an easy way to make it that you know a word (had to search that and read it off a discussion board). It was easier to summon AI ChatGPT without intent than it was to mark a word as known.
Also, the advertisements around the app (like customer reviews you find) feel scammy because they often describe things that can’t be done in the app - just to piggyback off of other programs’ advertising in forums.
Also, it couldn’t even recognize words in language or not in language - so YouTube was highlighted with every English word possible, but French words with apostrophes were treated as separate words (J’ai is ai and aujourd’hui is aujord).
Finally, it removed me from learning because it wouldn’t work on the apps (it was fighting with YouTube). I’m better off writing the words and definitions I find in context and then studying the new-words-of-the-day.
The Migaku cards put a lot of bells and whistles onto a card but they’re messy and inaccurate and take more time than just continuing to study. Pay money to create a hassle and create problems.

A company not blinded by greed
I've been using Migaku for 6 months and there is a clear and drastic improvement in my language ability. I talk to Japanese people every day and they notice the difference too. This is what happens when a company makes something that is actually designed to work effectively. If you use Duolingo, please, get rid of it as it is designed to sink you into an endless cycle of making you think you are progressing. It's a strategy to make money and not actually help you. Migaku is a heck of a commitment because if you miss days, you will have to re-review a lot of material. This is because of how the flash card system works. Showing you content right before you forget it. And yes, it actually works but you have to commit to it and it can take several hours a day to complete. But if you aren't studying that long, you won't learn. Anyway, I've said what I wanted to say. This app is the real deal. Seriously.

Great app
Super helpful for my language learning. About to finish the main course for Japanese after using the app for 6 months. Loving it so far and seeing real progress in my recognition and recall.

Excellent
Migaku has been the foundation of my Japanese learning, 9 months in and still going strong.
