Thank you for this review! I was looking at this as a way to extend my 'immersion' to reading on the go, but wasn't sure if the content was something I could handle. Looks like it'll be a little stretch, but that's good. Gives me goals. XD
is there a way i can get this game in japanese(and still have it work on my system bought in canada?) online, because i assume that the stores wont be very helpful with a japanese game.
Seems like a neat program if you're in Japan. I wish they would have that in English. I love the idea of the nice classical music playing a long too. There seems to be a lot more to do with DS in Japan than here in the States.
I'm not sure. I really need to dig this out again and play with it more. One downside I remember was the DS screen isn't super high res. Reading kanji wasn't terrible, but it wasn't as pleasant as it could be.
Thanks. It is nice. The biggest con is the DS's screen resolution isn't great. Some of the more complex kanji is very hard to read even though you can make the font larger.
I love your vid! Good work. Check mine too on?? my channel.

I hoped that it was fully furiganized... I guess 100 Japanese classics will have to wait a few years...

Hi Clay,
Does this 'game' include any traditional Japanese music as well? It would be a real tone setter and a big bonus.
Thanks.

Thanks so much for making a video for this game! Are there any Edogawa Ranpo or Murakami Haruki works included?
And I agree, it would be cool to see an English counterpart that included Eastern and Western works...

I am not sure. My copy isn't here, but I am pretty sure it won't have Murakami since I think it only includes public domain works.

that's really cool... I'm sure I'd get plenty of use out of my ds with that...

I don't know if it could do well in the US; there isn't any English (or full furigana for that matter)

Awesome. After I improve a bit I'll definitely pick this up. I love fables, especially Japanese ones and this could be a perfect way to practice.
