We went through all ten books page by page and rebuilt them from the reading up. Here's what's new. ① Read anywhere — app, tablet, or phone Unlock every story in the app Read the full collection in the Makoto Japanese Explorer app on iPhone, iPad, and Android — no files to manage. Tap any word Look up meanings and readings as you go, with the audio for each story built right in. Japanese Explorer Study each sentence interactively, word by word, online or in the app via Makoto+ Japanese Explorer. ② Read with a plan — not just front to back "Before You Read" A short, spoiler-free warm-up before each story: the grammar, vocabulary, and cultural patterns worth watching for. Exercises + Answer Keys Comprehension questions, particle fill-in-the-blanks, grammar-pattern hunts, and translation comparisons — with full answer keys so you can check yourself. Enrichment Boxes Grammar spotlights, cultural notes, vocabulary builders, and reading tips dropped in right beside the sentence they explain. ③ Cleaner, more honest Japanese Romaji is gone We removed romaji from the Japanese content and use furigana instead, so your eyes stay on the kana and kanji where they belong. Furigana, done right Furigana over every kanji in the word-by-word notes, resized on the sentences for a cleaner read, and removed from the vocab headwords so you recall the reading yourself. A full editorial pass We corrected readings, fixed word breakdowns (conjugations and morphology), and tightened every definition across the whole bundle. ④ Beautiful and easy to use Redesigned title pages Title, watercolor illustration, audio QR codes, and a short story teaser — all on one page. Never lose your place Running headers and page numbers throughout, plus a clickable table of contents in every book. New art and structure Fresh watercolor illustrations and ink-brush dividers, with three consistent sections per story: line-by-line → full Japanese → close English summary. ~100 pages of brand-new content added across the ten books — and as always, every update is yours free, for life.

Our Beri-Beri-Shoshinsha beginner's bundle of digital books and resources will not only help you with those but also Japanese grammar, vocabulary, kanji, and listening comprehension. If you have never studied a lick of Japanese, this is for you. If you feel like you are an "eternal beginner," this is for you. If you are studying for the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) N5, this bundle is also for you. あ Hiragana Beginners Just starting with the Japanese alphabet 文 Eternal Beginners Started and stopped Japanese multiple times N5 JLPT Aspirants Preparing for the very first level of JLPT Japanese reading practice for beginners In addition to foundational topics, Beri-Beri-Shoshinsha also contains dozens of short stories to practice reading hiragana and even simple kanji. Once you learn hiragana, next comes practice, and this bundle includes tons of fun practice. We call these stories "Yonde Miyou" which means "try to read" or "let's read." Each story or essay is short and interesting. No Dick and Jane or boring fluff. Read about common (and funny) mistakes foreigners make in Japan or Japanese. Learn about unusual aspects of Japanese culture. Each story is presented three times. Once in hiragana only with spaces. Once in full Japanese but with furigana over every kanji. And lastly, the story is presented again without furigana. Oh, and every word and grammatical pattern is defined and explained. Now, every single story in the Yonde Miyo~ series is also available inside our brand-new Makoto+ Japanese Explorer. This powerful online tool lets you read and listen to each sentence (with both normal and slow-speed audio), explore vocabulary and grammar notes, and quiz yourself interactively—all from any device. Your purchase of this bundle includes free, unlimited access to the entire Japanese Explorer library for these stories. It's the perfect way to make your reading practice even more effective—and way more fun. Interactively study, read, listen, and learn every sentence and every vocabulary word found in the stories for no extra charge. The unlock codes are found in the download. There are over two dozen of these stories. And that's just one section of Beri-Beri-Shoshinsha! INCREDIBLE VALUE Get 16 eBooks and resource packs for one low price and all with sound files.

The Frank and the Obaasan series is also found in its own, but this is the best value overall. All other titles and worksheets are only found here. All titles include sound files! For beginners of Japanese--even (especially) those just starting out ABOUT THE TITLE The name is a play on two English words plus the Japanese word for "beginner". ベリー beri- sounds like "very" and "berry" and 初心者 shoshinsha means "beginner" in Japanese (see the breakdown of that word below). So, ベリーベリー初心者 (beri- beri- shoshinsha) can mean "very very beginners" or "berry berry beginners." The name isn't particularly meaningful, but it is cute and we like it. :) 🎌 Love this bundle?

Everything You Need to Go from Zero to JLPT N5 Ready The Super Bundle Over $125 of eBooks and Resources for $49 (USD) Save $79 vs buying everything separately at retail ($128.77), or $18 vs buying the two bundles on their own ($67). The complete beginner path: start at zero, finish ready for the JLPT N5 exam. This Super Bundle pairs our two most popular beginner bundles into one package.

Try before you buy Read one story free: "Clay is Lost" Flip through story 1 of Yonde Miyo Volume 1 exactly as it appears in the bundle: the story in simple hiragana, every sentence broken down word by word, two grammar notes, a review, the story again in natural Japanese, and the English.

Clay is Lost Slow speed Clay is Lost Natural speed The bundle has 50 stories like this one, each with both recordings, plus everything shown in the images above. Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha → (Literally "very very beginner.") The foundation. Walks you from hiragana through basic grammar — and crucially includes our full library of beginner graded readers. Easy stories to actually practice what you learn, instead of drilling sentence patterns into a notebook and hoping they stick. JLPT N5 → Takes those fundamentals and sharpens them. Each book focuses on one slice of the test — grammar, vocabulary, kanji, listening, reading — so you can target weak spots before you sit. And even if you don't plan to take the JLPT, its framework is one of the cleanest ways to measure real progress at the beginner level. (A test on the calendar is a motivator that flashcards just aren't.) About the overlap. The grammar and kanji books in each bundle cover similar ground — about 60% of the grammar topics and 80% of the kanji appear in both. But the books are built for different purposes: the Beri- Beri- versions teach the language as you'll actually use it, organized by what's useful in real life; the JLPT N5 versions teach you for the test, organized by what the exam asks and how. Same underlying material, two different angles — exactly what a serious learner wants if they care about both fluency and certification. What Customers Are Saying 208 reviews across the two component bundles — 99% positive ★★★★★ "The printable practice sheets for Hiragana and Katakana are worth the package purchase price by themselves."
