Got about halfway through before deciding to call it quits. Could have kept going but couldn't shake the feeling that I could be spending this time on an RPG that's less... dull.

I've noticed there are a lot of games ABOUT learning Japanese that are not actual Japanese learning games. This is one of those. If you're the type of person to put "日本語OK" on your Twitter bio because you finished level 5 of Wanikani, I guess you'll enjoy this?

The monsters are designed after kanji, which is a clever idea (though I'm not a fan of what the designs end up being). Other than that it's an RPG Maker game where the collectibles are themed after Japanese vocabulary. Maybe the second half brings it all together and wraps a bow on it. It's hard to imagine, given how empty the first half's story is.
