I used to know the japanese alphabets but mostly forgot them. Probably makes the game much easier for me. I don't think it's for anyone other than complete noobs though, it won't do you any good unless you don't know any japanese whatsoever. An English version would be like this: Monsters in the shapes of English letters that you attacked by recognizing what those letters are. They'll also teach a random word or phrase here or there, such as "good morning." I have doubts about a significant improvement in speaking Japanese after finishing this game. That said, I still like it. Good way to learn the Japanese alphabet.

best game in the series in my opinion but still very flawed, teaches Katakana mostly well enough but has a bunch of features that have nothing to do with learning Japanese(like the bond events) and glosses over or entirely skips some things such as the katakana for "vu" that wasn't even mentioned at all(ヴ, though is very rarely used anyway so it's not an issue) and the concept of small vowels that was only briefly mentioned at times(and unless I'm remembering wrong the game even says we'll go more in depth on them later just to never really do it, maybe it does as some side quest I missed but not in the main quest)

This game achieves well what it sets out to do - helping players memorize katakana in a way more entertaining than flashcards. Stroke order and pronunciation are included with every attack. The downside is the game is extremely unstable and crashes constantly. Make sure you save every time you do anything. The interface to change the control scheme also seems to be glitched, leaving you without the ability to switch to WASD controls.

As an RPG, it's nothing special. But it doesn't want to be, it wants to help you memorize all them Katakana. And that it does very well.
