User reviews
such a splendid idea!!but you just need to use coution because the kanjis showed are not always right.
for example in a sentence there was "right" as in direction and the kanji that showed up was for "rightous" as in worng or right.
Also use with rikakun together.
Fantastic!

Bitya Trejger, 2017-02-09It is a wonderful idea. Remember to configure properly. Some symbles are translated differently if you choose a different profile

This is a really great way to passively study all sorts of kanji. Now when I'm just relaxing on tumblr I'm passively reinforcing my kanji knowledge and I've already started to notice a difference. Kanji is one of my least favorite things to study and you've made it that much easier. Can't thank you enough!
