That's pretty awesome! Wish I had this when learning the hiragana/katakana!<p>Two remarks : it would be nice for the divs not to move while using it. I'm not sure why but when trying to keep up the pace I was always distracted by something moving on the page. I think it is beacause your divs below with % of appearance/success was moving everything when going from a 1 digit % to a two digits?<p>Also, when seeing an hiragana and thinking it is a one letter such as "u" instead of "mi" the system does not really detect my "u" as wrong because it only has one character and expects two. So I can change my answer and get the correct one.

+ As already mentioned, there's a bug (よ should be "yo", tool says "re")<p>+ I think it would be good to allow alternative transliterations. E.g., "tu" for つ, "si" for し, "ti" for ち, etc.<p>+ It would be good to support composite/modified characters as well, stuff like しょ ("sho"), ちゅ ("chu"), じ ("ji"), じゅ ("ju"), が ("ga"), ぱ ("pa"), etc, etc, etc.

&#62; You were wrong! Answer for よ was: re<p>I'm just taking japanese for the first time, but I swear it's "yo".

I build it in order to learn angularjs and i'm pretty please with it. The js is about 100 lines, the html 37 lines, and the css 160 lines.

Very nice. It feels so fast compared to other server-side solutions. You should definitely extend it for katakana as well.
