As always, thank you all for the love and support you have given Bunpro throughout the years and for helping shape it into the tool it is today. 
2022 Year in Review
改善（かいぜん） was the theme here at Bunpro this year. While we continued to add more content to the site throughout the year, the majority of our time was spent improving both the content and the user experience on the site.
・ Added in-depth grammar write-ups for all N4 & N3 content while rearranging the ordering of them to make for a more natural progression for learners. 
・ Started the write-up process for N2 content by adding explanations for 50 grammar points, as well as rearranging all of them. (Stay tuned for 50 more very soon with the rest to follow in January 2023)
・ Completely revamped the hint system during reviews to help avoid synonym hell. We will continue to polish and expand this into 2023.
・ Developed Cram 2.0 which gave users not only a modern interface for the tool, but also provided 2 new ways to help boost their immersion and comprehension at the same time. 
・ We added around 1100 new N4 words this year! Not only that, this amounts to a staggering ~9000 new sentences. We hope that this huge amount of context will help you better understand how words are utilized in actual Japanese content, rather than just learning them in isolation.
・ Added Decks and the ability to review vocab. 
・ Plan on ordering some delicious お好み焼き in Osaka sometime? With the all new Kansai Dialect Deck, we’ve got you covered! With 21 specialized grammar points and 30 unique vocab words, you’ll have an easier time immersing yourself in Kansai-related dialogues! 
・ Staying true to our announcement last December, we began work on our very own Bunpro iOS and Android app! While this is still in Alpha, updates are being made daily to it and we’re confident it will be in an amazing state come next year’s year in review! 
・ Created the Japanese Immersion mode which translates as much of the English content on site as possible into Japanese. 
・ While we still have room for improvement with this next point, we’re proud to say that in 2022 we made a lot of changes to the accessibility of the site.
・ Throughout the entire year we made various changes to how things look and feel on Bunpro - whether it was the new themes & colors updates, the new header tweak or one of the numerous small edits we made behind the scenes, we wanted to provide you with a site you genuinely enjoy using.
