TextFugu – Online Japanese Textbook Hiragana42 Review “Learn hiragana through mnemonics in a day” Hiragana42 is an ebook by Koichi (of Tofugu) for people looking to learn how to read hiragana. Using mnemonics, it’s possible to learn all the hiragana in days or even hours (one person emailed us saying it took him 30 minutes to be able to read everything!). Since most Japanese resources require you to know at least hiragana, you’ll be opening doors to all sorts of other books you could never use previously. Hiragana42′s aim is to get you to that point very quickly without sacrificing quality. Download Hiragana42 (Free) Pros Totally freeeeee! Cons Doesn’t cover hand writing hiragana (who writes with their hands these days anyways?). Pictures Final Word? If you’re looking to learn Japanese, you should start that journey with hiragana.
