Learn by doing
Read, listen, and write from day one. Interactive challenges build real recall — so Japanese sticks far beyond the next quiz.
Playful and premium
Streaks, points, and gentle nudges make practice a joy — wrapped in an experience that feels as polished as it is fun.
In your language
Start from any of 35+ languages. Miaru meets you where you are and walks with you all the way to fluency.
The Japanese course
Every kanji. Both kana. All the culture.
Miaru teaches the whole writing system — not a watered-down slice. From your first あ to your two-thousandth kanji, every stroke is a small, satisfying win.
All 2,136 kanji
Master every standard kanji — its meanings, readings, and stroke order — the heart of written Japanese.
Hiragana — ひらがな
The 46 core hiragana and every combination, taught with sound, shape, and memory until they're second nature.
Katakana — カタカナ
Read loanwords, names, and signs with confidence. Katakana, drilled until it's instant.
Real culture — 文化
Anime, food, festivals, and everyday etiquette. Learn the language inside the culture that gives it meaning.
How Miaru works
Tiny lessons, real fluency
We blend bite-sized daily practice with hands-on, learn-by-doing lessons — so Japanese compounds, day after day.
Start in your language
Pick the language you already speak and tell Miaru your goal. We shape a path from your very first character.
Practice by playing
Solve five-minute challenges that teach kana, kanji, and real phrases. Every tap is a win, and Luffy cheers each one.
Build a lasting streak
Gentle daily nudges turn practice into a habit — so a few minutes a day becomes real, lasting fluency.

Miaru is deeply personal to our founder — an inventive blend of his two daughters' names. In Japanese we write it 実有: 実 (mi) means truth, reality, and bearing fruit; 有 (aru) means to exist, or to be filled with. Together: “filled with truth and substance.”
Japanese is rich, beautiful, and famously rewarding to learn — the perfect first language for Miaru's approach. We teach it completely: every kanji, both kana, and the culture behind them.
The full Japanese writing and speaking system: all 2,136 kanji, hiragana and katakana, and conversation built around real-life scenarios.
More than 35 — including English, Español, Deutsch, Français, 中文, 한국어, हिन्दी, Tiếng Việt, and many more. Miaru teaches Japanese in the language you already speak.
