NOT 329MB

I like this one but 891.4MB is too much... deleted.

Great reference tool

Beautiful design and easy to use. The write on the screen tool is also invaluable. The inclusion of hundreds of images is also nice but completely unnecessary in my opinion. I wish I could delete them to save space. The actual file size is close to 1 GB. For an entry level dictionary look elsewhere but if you want an in-depth Japanese dictionary then this is for you.

Horrible design

The app functions well, but I really don't like the "book" design. If I wanted to buy a book, I would buy a physical book. When I buy an app I expect it to be designed to use screen space efficiently. As of now, it wastes a lot of screen space. There are also too many gimmicky features that do not add to the dictionary. The galaxy orbiting word feature is small and hard to read. The visualizers are also not helpful. The developer should build an app that is useful with a clean design without any gimmicks.
