Ah kanji, the mysterious Chinese characters that give so many learners trouble. In MaruMori's adventure course, you will automatically unlock kanji appropriate for your level, and we’ll teach you how to read and apply these characters in context!

We use mnemonics (stories) to help you remember everything, and we’ve developed a special order that allows us to teach you new kanji using ones you already know!

For example, after you learn 口 (mouth) you will later use that kanji to learn 舌 (tongue) and 活 (lively). This greatly decreases the amount of new info you have to learn. Yay!

Study any kanji (6000+) you want by adding them to personal study lists

It turns out, if you want to learn a language, you kinda need to learn a lot of words! Our adventure course has hand-crafted batches of vocabulary that increase in difficulty as you progress. We’ve carefully curated these items to make sure they are useful and help reinforce the kanji.

Alternatively, you can create your own vocabulary study lists for a more custom experience.

Fun readings spanning a wide variety of content, from cultural info to everyday conversation
