why you should check it out:
a very surprising and fun jrpg that utilizes SRS and immersion to teach you hiragana. its a smart and clever way of introducing words and sentences to you, all wrapped in a enjoyable (if slightly stereotypical) jrpg story. the demo is insanely generous providing 3+ hours of free fun.
why you should NOT check it out:
its a rpg maker game (i believe) so take of that what you will, i.e. no graphics settings, weird controls, etc
