Each character is introduced with brushed, handwritten and typed samples that enhance character recognition. Extensive space for writing allows the maximum practice to facilitate memorization and to ensure proper character formation. Entertaining illustrations and amusing examples of loan-words that use katakana in Japanese writings further reinforce memorization in a fun way.
