Very helpful, but when I type text and go over it to make sure I used the correct kanji it will sometimes delete the words I wrote. Other than that it works well.

I just noticed the new settings page, and so the names dictionary! Now I don't have to consider going back to using Firefox. Cheers!

I can't surf the web without using rikaikun!~ It is great. I haven't used rikaichan before so I can't compare the two.

It's a great tool! It would be nice if there were more languages available like in the Mozilla Ad on Rikaichan though.

2 stars just because it the VERY MINIMUM. rikaikun fails in comparison to rikaichan. Development for this app is dead since September 2013 and any hope of improvements are now gone unless you want to update it yourself. As for why the low score, rikaikun cannot recognize names, places, and other essentials. Many options were not implemented and is unresponsive at many times. My advice to people reading my review is to either learn almost everything yourself and only use rikaikun as a undependable guide OR go to firefox's rikaichan.
