Details
While there are now a few good options for reading LNs on iOS, they haven't quite felt like the average ttu + Yomitan setup
Main features differentiating this from other options:
- 縦書き (Vertical writing)
- Popup dictionary that looks and feels like Yomitan
- Support for all Yomitan term and frequency dictionaries
- Proper deinflection via Yomitan's rules
- Anki cards virtually indistinguishable from Yomitan-created ones (most Lapis handlebars are supported)
- Lightweight due to minimal reliance on external dependencies
