User reviews

This only works on Jisho and is only limited to single dictionary words. It doesn't show the pitch accent on the example sentences, which is what I'm more interested in. It's worth noting that pitch accent will vary between a single word and the entire sentence. Is there an extension that uses OJAD on all websites displaying Kana, not only on Jisho (more preferably showing the pitch accent of the entire phrase, not just a word at a time).

This system is way better than what I was doing, looking up pitch accent from Suzuki for every single word I found interest in on Jisho. Maybe it's a little slow sometimes, and sometimes there's no pitch accent patterns (more often than not for obscure words) but overall it's still so useful.
