Mimiko turns real Japanese videos into short clips you can actually understand. Every clip comes with furigana, romaji and an English translation — and every word is one tap away.
REAL JAPANESE, AT YOUR LEVEL
• Short clips from podcasts, vlogs and lessons by Japanese creators
• Each clip is rated from JLPT N5 to N1, so your feed matches what you already know
• Turn furigana, romaji and translation on or off as you improve
TAP ANY WORD
• Meaning, reading and how the word is built, right in the video
• AI explains why a word means what it does in this exact line
• Stroke order for every kanji
REVIEWS THAT MAKE WORDS STICK
• Save words to your vocab with one tap
• Spaced reviews bring each word back with the clip you met it in
• Watch your vocabulary grow from new to known
MAKE IT A DAILY HABIT
• Set a daily goal — 10 minutes is enough
• Keep your streak, earn achievements, track your progress
• Gentle reminders, only as often as you want
Sign in with Apple (optional) to back up your words and progress.

• Clips start almost instantly: the next one loads while you watch
• Your first clips are hand-picked for your level
• Easier reading: shorter subtitle lines, and the current line stays at the top so you can read it together with its translation
• Minor bugfixes
