Kanjiru: Feel the Kanji

Kanjiru teaches you kanji the way they were meant to be felt — not drilled.

Each character comes alive with its origin story, visual mnemonics, real example sentences, and native-speaker pronunciation. You don't just remember 火 means "fire." You see the flames in the strokes. You hear it spoken. You feel why it looks the way it does.

── WHAT'S INSIDE ──

📖 N5, N4, and N3 kanji — hundreds of characters, each with full detail
🎨 Original mnemonic illustrations — kawaii scenes that make meanings stick
🔊 Native-speaker audio — tap any kanji or sentence to hear it spoken naturally
🎤 Speaking practice — say the reading aloud and get instant feedback
📝 Smart quiz system — three difficulty levels that adapt to what you get wrong
⭐ Favorites — save characters you want to revisit
📊 Score history — track your progress across every quiz session
✍️ Three kanji fonts — switch between classical, pop, and brush styles

── HOW THE QUIZ WORKS ──

Kanjiru's quiz weights questions toward kanji you've struggled with, so you spend more time on what matters. Three question types cover different angles of the same character:

• Easy: see the kanji, pick the English meaning
• Medium: see the English meaning, pick the correct kanji
• Hard: read a kanji in a real sentence and choose the correct reading

── DESIGNED FOR LEARNERS ──

Whether you're just starting JLPT N5 prep or pushing through N3, Kanjiru meets you where you are. Filter quizzes by level, focus on a thematic group (nature, numbers, time, body parts…), or explore individual characters at your own pace.
