Tanuki: Learn Japanese JLPT

Tanuki teaches Japanese the way it actually sticks: you produce the answer instead of picking it off a list. Start at zero with hiragana and katakana, tracing each glyph stroke by stroke until your hand knows it without thinking. Then climb the JLPT ladder, N5 through N1, at whatever pace your memory can actually hold. WHAT IS INSIDE More than 10,900 words with audio. 2,387 kanji with stroke order and component breakdowns. 72 grammar points. Most words carry their pitch accent, so you learn how a word sounds, not just how it is spelled. Furigana sits above every kanji you have not met yet, so no screen is ever a wall. HOW THE REVIEWS WORK Scheduling runs on FSRS, a modern spaced repetition algorithm that brings a word back right before you would have forgotten it. Miss a day and your reviews quietly reschedule. There is no streak to protect, so nothing breaks when life gets in the way. Multiple choice appears once, on first exposure. After that you type the answer on a Japanese keyboard. It is harder, and that is the whole point. Recognition fades fast. Production is what survives. NO ROMAJI CRUTCH Romaji appears only while you are learning kana, then it goes away. Every screen after that is kana and kanji, the way Japanese is actually written. You will be reading real script within your first week. GRADED READING Short passages built only from words and grammar you already know, so you read whole sentences early and keep reading as your vocabulary grows. FREE AND PRO Hiragana, katakana and all of N5 are free, with no time limit and no account to create. Tanuki Pro opens N4, N3, N2 and N1: monthly, yearly, or a single one-time purchase if you would rather not subscribe. OFFLINE BY DEFAULT Tanuki works without a connection. Your progress is stored on your device, so a lost signal never costs you a review, and there is no account to create before you start. On the App Store in mainland China, Tanuki never connects to the internet, so audio there covers kana and N5 only.
