The Method

二段の稽古
A→あON

Step 1 · Romaji ON

Learn the sounds

The next key glows gold. Type the romaji you see and watch the kana fill in — building the keyboard-to-sound map in your fingers.

OFF

Step 2 · Romaji OFF

Read for real

Hide the romaji and read the Japanese directly. The training wheels come off and recognition becomes reflex.
