Furigana fades away as you learn.

Furigana stays above kanji you haven't learned yet, and quietly disappears from the ones you know.

No flipping a global switch and hoping you're ready. The page adapts kanji by kanji, tracking what you've marked known as you go.

Grammar, unfolded

Grammar that builds as you read.

Tap a piece of any word to see what it's doing, then watch the sentence build itself back up.
