Description

A cute, ad-free, and enjoyable learning experience is waiting for you in the Renshuu community! The free version is unlimited: there’s no timer before you are forced to pay!

- A path for every learning style and every goal -
Whether you are getting started with the alphabets or have been studying for years, jump in exactly where you belong! Don’t waste time going through what you already know.

Renshuu maintains learning paths for most textbooks, the JLPT, Kanji Kentei, and for those who just want to learn. You can also carve out your own path! Our community has over 10,000 user-made lessons for even more focused learning.

- Cute, relaxing, and fun -
Our mascot Kao-chan is here to let you enjoy learning Japanese, whether it’s through collectible coins every time you quiz, a character that evolves as you learn, manga pages that you unlock, or hundreds of hand-made illustrations.

Additionally, we have both single and multiplayer games to help you keep your learning and reviewing fresh!

- Personal service -
We are just a two-person company - and we don’t use chat bots. That means that every question you have gets an answer directly from us.

- Rich, in-depth materials -
> Vocabulary: over 15,000 native-recorded audio files, 17,000 hand-picked images, and 160,000 example sentences make understanding vocabulary a breeze. Our growing library of accent/pitch data can even help you with accent reduction.
> Kanji: 12,000+ kanji, with no limits on what you can study! Over 2,000 colorful mnemonics help you to understand and retain the meanings.
> Grammar: Over 800 different expressions, each complete with native-written model sentences, construction diagrams, audio, and over 7,500 hand-made quiz questions.
> Sentences: Thousands of sentences complete with audio, divided by theme and difficulty levels.

- A superior quiz system designed around Japanese -
Our SRS-for-Japanese system doesn’t treat Japanese materials like flashcards to be memorized, and breaks every item down into individual components so you can understand, and not just memorize. Mastery schedules keep you studying only what you need to, pushing weaker materials to the front for you to focus on.

Dozens of different question styles keep things fresh, while a flexible input system (multiple choice, typing, or writing) lets you answer the way that you want to.

- Customizable down to the last character -
Renshuu doesn’t believe that there is a single way of studying that everyone should adhere to. Our expansive settings and customizations let you adjust the learning environment to what works best for you.

Best japanese learning app!! (In my opinion)

😁😀😃😄😁😆🙂😉 on

Ive tried so many other japanese learning apps and this one stood out to me. It has game to practice what you learned, and a community tab to chat with others, a question corner under that tab. When you earn coins you can spend it at your personal garden! Overall, very interactive and helpful to remember things!

A lot better than duo lingo

Brolo Bowlin on

I’ve been using duo lingo over a year and I feel this app with its unique and quirky graphics, reward system and illustrated learning style is a lot more engaging and educational.

Soooo cute!

Lauren B Perry on

My husband found this app a week ago, and introduced me to it. He’s been learning in his own, and I always find myself having a hard time studying. This app has made it so fun, and I look forward to studying everyday and seeing my little character grow with me!! I also love the game feature as well. I love playing the しりとり game with him as well. Love it!

Best Japanese Learning App Ever

Bossgamer2048 on

At first I was using Duolingo but after I told some of my Japanese friends, they told me to use this instead. I deleted Duolingo for this and I don’t regret it!!! I was able to learn Hiragana very well within a week and Katakana within two weeks!! This helped me so much and now I can understand each letter and I plan on leaning kanji next! I just can’t wait to start writing in Japanese and progress even more! I’m always excited to learn because of this app!!

Best app for actually learning Japanese ever!!

JjJjJstevens on

Renshuu is, by far, the best app ever for learning Japanese. It teaches you both formal and casual styles of Japanese and you can customize it to your preference. I was studying on Duolingo for almost 2 years now and it wasn't really getting me anywhere because it was all in textbook style formality and every time it updated it would send my progress wayyyy back which made it really frustrating. Because of Duo I almost gave up on Japanese all together, but thanks to Renshuu I gained back that motivation and love for the language and culture. Renshuu has so many amazing features like all the games to make learning fun, which it does, and you can even contact the creator themselves if you have any problems. Luckily I haven't ran into any, so that's good! It also has a dictionary, which is useful from time to time, and even has an adorable little buddy that grows and evolves as you progress! It also has the cutest art ever! I highly recommend Renshuu for anyone who either wants to learn Japanese or lost motivation but still want to progress further and hopefully gain it back like I did! Thank you so so much Michael and Saki for Renshuu!

Best Japanese app I’ve used

That_One_Dude_Dude on

Have used so many different apps to learn Japanese and I feel like this has been the best one. It is very easy to make flash cards that have a lot of information on it

Helpful and fun way of learning

kathyhasramen on

This app rocks! I was struggling to remember the hiragana and katakana characters until I downloaded this app. It provides a social environment where users share their mnemonic tips. So helpful! With good audio recordings, a fun learning environment with quizzes and gatcha prizes - I highly recommend!

Incredibly detailed app

THIS IMPOSSIBLE HE on

I’ve only seriously gotten into using this app for a few days so I feel like it’s going to take time for me to get used to everything you can do with renshuu but I can already tell it’s going to be one of the most useful tools in my arsenal and especially in terms of phone applications!

Best Free Japanese Learning App

感謝してます!! on

Renshuu is the first app I’ve found that I’ve studied consistently from for more than a week. There is so much content and a myriad of ways to study it. I appreciate that the paid portions simply add more to the lessons/games rather than limiting access altogether. As an upper intermediate learner, I struggled to find an app that offered N2 level study in an effective, interactive method. Renshuu has filled that gap. Thank you for creating such a great community-centered Japanese learning site!!

Nice

栗酢鱒 on

Really intuitive, really comprehensive, minimal advertising, lovely all around. Guaranteed to contain nothing but the pure sweet fat of the Japanese study. 学ばんば!(これは長崎弁)
