Compare Prices(3 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About You Can Kana - Learn Japanese Hiragana & Katakana
I approached this expecting either a full-featured language app or a glorified quiz. Instead, You Can Kana is exactly what it claims: a meditative, no-nonsense drillsheet for the two Japanese phonetic alphabets. You get hiragana and katakana flashcards at your own pace, achievements to track progress, and cloud saves so you can pick up where you left off across devices. No story mode, no resource management, no pressure. It works if your goal is narrow and specific, memorizing character sets before tackling actual Japanese grammar or vocabulary apps. The meditative angle isn't marketing fluff; there's something genuinely calming about unhurried reps without timers or leaderboards breathing down your neck. The trade-off is obvious: it's a single-tool app, not a complete language curriculum. Worth grabbing if you've already decided to learn Japanese and need a low-friction way to nail the alphabets first.
