Subscribe"I really enjoy Okkei Japanese because the topics are always interesting and connected to real life. The furigana toggle on transcripts is very helpful because I can check words without losing focus. I also like how difficult words are sometimes rephrased in a natural way. The story keeps flowing without textbook-style explanations like 'which means,' so I can concentrate and actually enjoy listening."
James (U.S., Videographer)
"I always struggled to follow Japanese podcasts, but with Okkei Japanese I can finally keep up. The transcripts with furigana help me check new words, and I love how he tells real stories instead of textbook dialogues. It feels like listening to a friend."
Anna (Germany, Student)
"Other resources felt too slow for me, but here I get to hear clear Japanese with interesting topics. I listen on my commute, and little by little my ears have gotten used to the speed. Now I can watch Japanese YouTubers and understand so much more."
Nathan (Australia, Software engineer)
