The score

How difficulty is calculated

An easy movie will use a small set of words over and over and avoid complex words that you'll only see once.

Click the score on any deck page and the numbers open up — like this one, for Spirited Away.

Flashcards but better

Varied practice

A different sentence on every review

You never see the same card twice in a row, so you learn the word — not the shape of the card. This is the single biggest upgrade over normal Anki decks.

Real sentences

Straight from the media you chose

Every example sentence is from the actual film, series or novel — so when the line comes up for real, you've already studied it.

Audio everywhere

Native audio on every sentence

Pick one of three voices at checkout. Train your ear with every single review — listening comprehension comes free.
