About Gomu - Learn Japanese
Gomu turns real Japanese video into a language lesson you actually want to scroll through. Swipe through short clips — dramas, interviews, news, and creator content — with tappable subtitles that show you the reading, romaji, and meaning of every word, instantly.
HOW IT WORKS
• Watch bite-sized real Japanese clips, picked for your JLPT level
• Tap any word in the subtitles to see its meaning and reading
• Save words you want to remember to your personal vocabulary list
• Review saved words with spaced-repetition flashcards that know when you're about to forget them
• Build a daily streak and unlock achievements as you go
WHY GOMU
Textbook Japanese and real spoken Japanese are different languages. Gomu closes that gap by teaching you from the same clips native speakers actually watch — real pacing, real expressions, real context — instead of scripted dialogue.
• Personalized by JLPT level (N5–N1), so you're never in over your head
• Every clip credits its original creator, with a direct link to watch it on YouTube
• No ads, no data selling
• Delete your account and all your data anytime, right from your profile
Whether you're just starting out or prepping for the JLPT, Gomu helps you build real listening comprehension and vocabulary — one clip at a time.
