Pronunciation update.<br><br>Kanji that share a reading no longer share a voice clip — each one is now spoken with its own pitch accent, so what you hear matches the kanji you found.<br><br>Also: clearer readings, a calmer button sound, and a slower stroke animation so you can follow every stroke. Plus stability fixes.<br><br>Ideas or bugs? kanji.search.en@rottzgames.com<br>
Only the current version so far — new entries appear as the game ships updates.
