Lexirise is an immersion-based language learning platform built around the content you already enjoy: comics, videos, and podcasts.
Use the Lexirise Saferi extension to read comics on sites like Webtoon, Kuaikan, Lezhin and watch on sites like YouTube, Netflix, Prime Video, Crunchyroll, BiliBili and more with instant translations.
On iOS, use the dedicated companion app:
- Spaced-repetition reviews: Smart scheduling (similar to Anki) helps you remember words for the long term without wasting reviews.
- Manage your vocabulary: Organize words and phrases by deck, language, tags, or source content. Edit, delete, and merge entries easily.
- Context-rich cards: Review cards that keep the original sentence, comic panel, or subtitle line, so you never memorize words in isolation.
- Access your saved content: Browse where each word came from: comics chapters, video episodes, or podcast timestamps, and jump back to re-immerse.
- Multi-language support: Build decks for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, Spanish, French, and other languages in one place.
I love reading webcomics and have been looking for a way to easily read in my target languages (Spanish & Korean). I have to admit it takes a bit to get it to work since it’s an extension and you have to make sure all the right permissions are enabled. But once you get it to work, it’s a game changer. No more switching back and forth between your webcomic and dictionary or screenshotting into other parsers. It even works on desktop and mobile for free! Though i would love if more websites can work via the universal parser feature (Not too many websites options for Spanish compared to Korean for example) and i REALLY recommend the developers to include Tapas in their lists. I haven’t tried all the features yet. But for immersing in webcomics, it’s great!
A Mecca for Language Autodidacts!
