Great extension! I only wish there were some more dark backgrounds to choose from, apart from just black
Really like the idea. I get "undefined" printed for the Kanji a lot though.

Great idea but just one thing: in my opinion you need to be able to turn the romaji off for this to be of any use. I really hope the option gets implemented in the future. In the meantime, I believe in the project so you have my money :)
I do like the passive learning it gives but atm for me the audio does not work. Could you please check that? With out that i really can not give you a higher rating

You have problems, you can not play the audio to hear how it sounds

I love this! Only thing that I would improve is adding a function to turn off romaji, since I want to train my eyes to read the script smoothly. Otherwise, a great learning tool

It's really a neat idea to utilize otherwise blank area on the new tab, the colors are nice also. Wish that in the future there would be an option to change/disable the quick website links.

For anyone else obsessed with jdramas (currently in love with Kazoku Game) this extension is the perfect way to learn japanese! The pastel colours are so cute and brighten up my laptop screen with every new tab :)

what a cool way to learn japanese! it's really pretty, and doesn't feel out of place at all on a new tabs page. a great way to expand your vocabulary on a daily basis.
