It might not be the best tool to learn kanji like everyone else says, but it motivates me to actually start learning it. I can memorize the shapes and meaning of them and that's good enough, I'll practice how to read and write it myself. Though, I wish they have a feature where you can also practice writing it in game. I didn't expect much before playing, so I had a pleasant experience learning kanji by fighting them. Last but not least, please... skip button</3

An excellent game, perfect for Japanese learners and fans of JRPGs. The strongest game in the trilogy by far. Fun, simple to understand but comprehensive enough to give plenty of Kanji to memorise. As long as you play Hiragana first, then Katakana, this game will be the cherry on top.

I was a little skeptical, since this installment had the lowest rating out of the series. However, after playing this for 5 hours and effortlessly learning and remembering 40 new kanji in that time, I am sold. The game has me hooked and makes me want to keep grinding, due to how it handles the gamemplay aspect. Great game, great learning tool.

Is it a particularly original game? No. Does it still crash? Yes. Does it do a fantastic job of helping a beginner break into the intimidating field of study that is Japanese kanji? Also yes. Lessons are broken into approachable chunks, its easy to review previous material, each successful attack shows stroke order, and characters call out a different pronunciation each time.

This game is fantastic for getting started with your Kanji basics. I do suggest creating mnemonics for the kunyomi and onyomi readings. Also learning 1 word for each reading will help you better recall it. I wish there was a continuation to the game with even more Kanji, oh please creator Gods hear my prayer! :D
