KANA SCHOOL

I really enjoy testing myself on my way to reading the Japanese alphabet. I also enjoy watching Japanese anime and noticing the hiragana and katakana alphabet. Hunter X Hunter, That time I got reincarnated as a slime and By the Grace of God. I ‘m sure there are others, but these are the only anime I’ve found that don’t go to fast for me to read. After I watch one anime I go back to the “app” and test myself again. For just starting this is a good app to learn the Japanese alphabet and later you will notice you are learning whole words.

Also the anime I mentioned are good to learn Kanji.

Really great hiragana and katakana learning tool

For a free app it is stellar: clean UI, well made, and functional. Works well as a learning tool and a reference for both Japanese syllabaries.

The one thing that would make this app BETTER is a section (or two) with the Roman characters (roomaji) removed where hiragana can be directly compared to katakana.
For example: display あ instead of 'a' and the answer would be ア. And vice versa. This would allow users to move beyond connecting the Japanese syllabic symbols to Roman lettering and instead begin connecting them to the actual syllables or sounds.

Perfect for learning the basic symbols

Great app to easily learn the basic symbols. The app has you learn sections of the alphabet one section at a time. Each section lets you hear the proper pronunciation for each sylabol, and is structured for easy learning. This is the best app I found to learn to recognize/memorize the language symbols.
