Ride the Yamanote Line in a Voxel Tokyo to Study Japanese
A voxel Tokyo in real Japan time – ride the Yamanote line and study Japanese
I invite you to ride the Yamanote line through a voxel Tokyo that syncs with Japan's real clock, weather, and seasons. While a lofi bed plays, N5 sentences drift by as subtitles, creating an ambient study room you can simply press play into. Join riders from 17 countries as we study together on the loop.
An ambient Japanese study room you just press play into.

The voice does not sound like a native speaker. I don't mean it sounds like a non-human character, I mean something is subtly off. Timing or something. Is that intentional? Maybe pick a different TTS solution?

Fun. I studied Japanese for two years, let it slide and now every Kanji is like "Hmmm, I've seen that before but..." I can still read kana though, which is nice to know.

This looks very cool, but I find it very hard to read the text against the moving background. The lights in the "windows" of the voxel building do not provide good contrast.

I don't know why, but that was an extreme load on my computer/browser. The picture changed every ten-fifteen seconds, I don't know if that's intentional or not, but it wasn't something I wanted to watch. The computer fan ran at maximum and it was hard to get enough CPU to close the browser tab.

This looks good and I like the idea but I don't get what the "practice" is here?
