"After a half hour, I was blazing through each exercise: highly recommended for beginners". - The Huffington Post
“I came across Dr. Moku's Hiragana Mnemonics....Thirty minutes later I had memorized all hiragana". - BoingBoing.net
Mnemonics are memory tricks that use humor or a memorable personal connection to help you fix and break associations so your brain has no choice but to remember.
Perfect for the complete beginner, young or old, this is the foolproof and definite way to master the first steps in learning Japanese.
Each screen presents a Hiragana character along with a mnemonic clue and audio clip. Read the clue, listen to the clip and move on to the next one. The alternating bold colors will 'reset' your brain so you start fresh with each character. Then take a quiz! You will be amazed at your ability to recall Hiragana after just a few minutes.
This free Lite Version covers 25% of Hiragana. We offer an in-app purchase which adds the entire mnemonic system, additional quizzes, word search game etc.

Ratings and Reviews
Really good!
This app is really good. I learnt all of hiragana in under 2 hours after going through the learning slides 3 or 4 times I got 100% on the quiz. This app gives you a picture using the character to help you remember it (e.g. お-pronounced o- it looks like a man thrOwing a bOne) The reason why I gave it 4 stars is because some of the images it gives you to remember it by arent that good, for me anyway, so I found it hard to remember those characters. But, I came up with my own ones such as か-pronounced ka- it said to remember it as an evil face (it doesn't look like one) and remember 'batman will never KAtch the villain!' I couldn't remember this so I thought of my own thing and imagined that it looked like a person KAtching something. Same with に (ni) and a few other ones. I also have it four stars because it doesn't teach you the characters that use ど (the two little lines in the top right corner) と-to, ど-do. It does not say anything about that. But overall it's really good and a fun and easy way to remember it! どうもありがとう!
Amazing app
Literally learned hirgana and katakana off by heart- the good think about this is that you just have to buy it once and its there if you ever forget your characters. I think this must be the best japanese character app out there- i used this last year and still remember the character. AMAZING! Thankyou- looking forward to more languages like chinese !
Good, but could be better
Seems like it could be a good app but sadly the “lite” version (at the time of writing) only has 15 hiragana out of 46 so for it to be of any use as a learning tool you need to buy the full version. However it’s a useful “taster” of what the full version might be like.
