Amenokori review
Broad JLPT review with FSRS scheduling, audio examples and seven quiz types.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Amenokori brings vocabulary, grammar nuance and kanji study together for Japanese learners preparing across JLPT N5–N1. Its balanced focus suits learners who want broad review in one app rather than a tool centered on a single skill. The free tier supports study with one active deck, and the app is available for iOS and Android; Mac compatibility is listed in the App Store. Cloud synchronization supports moving study across devices.
Review is the product’s central strength. FSRS schedules spaced-repetition sessions, while more than 10,000 prepared entries provide a broad base for study. Seven quiz types cover reading, usage, cloze, particles, synonyms, antonyms and meaning, giving learners several ways to work with material. Audio-supported example sentences and usage notes add context, and kanji practice includes stroke-order guidance. Together, these features make Amenokori a fit for learners who want vocabulary, grammar and kanji review tied to examples rather than isolated word lists.
The published plans include Monthly and Annual options, each with a one-month free trial, plus Lifetime access. Monthly offers the full premium toolkit; Annual is described as the best value plan; Lifetime provides premium access forever. Paid plans add multiple decks, unlimited saved terms, advanced scheduling and quiz controls. That makes the free tier a reasonable starting point, but learners who need several decks or deeper controls should expect to choose a paid plan. Amenokori is a strong match for individual learners seeking comprehensive JLPT review, while someone focused on a narrower study method may prefer a more specialized app.
