What Customers Are Saying 4.9 stars on average from reviews of the two bundles inside ★★★★★ "The printable practice sheets for Hiragana and Katakana are worth the package purchase price by themselves." James Schmitt · Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha ★★★★★ "A great set of study materials. I really like that it includes Anki flashcards. I've been using this bundle after finishing the Genki textbook." Anna Glaid · Batumi, GE · JLPT N5 Bundle ★★★★★ "Every sentence is broken down and explained in easy steps that helps the reader understand the structure of Japanese." M.J. · London, GB · Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha ★★★★★ "Excellent material. I'm reviewing the kanji level 5 reading practice. I am very happy with the results. Motivated to go on." Michael LE GRAND · Rebecq, BE · JLPT N5 Bundle ★★★★★ "The worksheets are super helpful for practicing writing and the information is easy to follow. I don't feel overwhelmed with this." Teddy · Beri- Beri- Shoshinsha These reviews are of the two bundles inside this one, Beri-Beri Shoshinsha and the JLPT N5 Bundle. Read more reviews below.

From your first hiragana to JLPT N5 level Two bundles in one Beri-Beri Shoshinsha + the JLPT N5 Bundle $18 less than buying the two bundles on their own.

What's inside 23 eBooks (PDF and ePub): hiragana, katakana, grammar, vocabulary, kanji and reading 2,000+ audio files recorded by native speakers 50 beginner stories, each recorded at slow and natural speed Anki flashcard decks for spaced-repetition review The Yonde Miyo stories and the JLPT N5 books also open in the Makoto+ Japanese Explorer app Instant download, and free updates forever Who it's for Total beginners, and anyone who has started Japanese before and wants a clear, structured path with plenty of reading practice. If you plan to take the JLPT N5, the N5 books follow the exam; if you don't, its levels are still a clear way to measure your progress. 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. It walks you from hiragana through basic grammar, and it includes our full library of beginner graded readers: easy stories to 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 covers one part of the exam (vocabulary, grammar, kanji, reading, sentence patterns), so you can target weak spots before you sit it. Even if you never take the JLPT, its levels are one of the clearest ways to measure progress at the beginner stage. (A test on the calendar is a motivator that flashcards 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 they're built for different jobs. The Beri- Beri- versions teach the language as you'll use it, organized by what's useful in real life; the JLPT N5 versions teach for the test, organized by what the exam asks and how. Same material from two angles, which helps if you care about both everyday Japanese and the exam. 23 eBooks + audio Add to cart

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 50 of these stories, ten in each of the five volumes. And that's just one section of Beri-Beri-Shoshinsha!

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?
