awesome news! heck, i’m still on the middle of the first genki book but, awesome news is awesome news; since i’m planning to use bunpro for a long time…

i have a suggestion though @Pushindawood at book paths, could you add a small mark to the topics to show which level is it? like 何より(N2) or some kind of.

i know it may not be the correct place to ask but anyways, some people asked for tae kim path, but i’d love to see an imabi path. somehow i feel it’s a better source -at this point, i only can trust my feelings, not japanese skills :slightly_smiling_face:

The new あと grammar point immediately reminded me of Majora’s Mask!!

Dawn of the first day, 72 hours remain…

I hope it has by now!

Since an update is pretty huge with a lot of records, an update only about once a week, so your update may not have occurred yet.

I‘ll add an option to manually trigger an update in an upcoming app update :slight_smile:

Are there any plans to put together a path for Tae Kim’s Guide to Japanese? I happen to have it on hand, but not the other books.

@Chun-Free Welcome to the community!

Yes, a Tae Kim Path is near the top of our to-do list at the moment. We are trying to get it set up so that both those with the book and those that use the site can quickly and easily reference either resource. We hope to have something for you soon. Cheers!

I was wondering why my N5 and N4 bars suddenly weren’t full anymore! Appreciate the update!

Thank you, I actually came here to bring this up again after noticing that わけ still doesn’t bring up all of the わけ grammar points :sweat_smile:

Always a good feeling to re-fill those lower bars when a couple points I already know get added :sunglasses:

That being said, it’s been about 6 months since the last time N1 was mentioned, do you have any more information you can give us in that department? I understand the desire to expand and improve upon the lower levels (and the improvements really are great!), but I was able to pass (even if barely) JLPT N2 using Bunpro as my primary grammar source even with only about 80% of the points covered at the time, which I believe is around 70-75% of the current N2 total.

I’m planning on taking N1 in December this year, and while I have other resources I plan on using (especially since Bunpro isn’t available yet) I’d love to be able to use Bunpro alongside them! (I also don’t expect to pass the first time around anyway, but even just some transparency in this area would be greatly appreciated :blush:)

Thanks for all the great work you guys are doing constantly to improve Bunpro! It’s a truly amazing resource and only getting better!

I’m currently going through N4, but I don’t seem to get the new N5 lessons in my study track. How can I force this to happen?

EDIT: Oh wait I only had N4 selected in the settings

@Kai It looks like there is still something funky going on with the search but we pushed a fix that should properly return anything relevant to the grammar points that you are searching for. Cheers!

@Houndstooth Thank you for your comment and ひさしぶり! There are just a few more grammar points that we would like to add/expand upon before going all in on N1. We have pretty much everything set up (order of the grammar points and what grammar points we are going to add) and are working on writing sentences for N1 as we speak. Thank you for your kind words and for your patience. Cheers!

お久しぶりですね! Thanks so much for the update, I really appreciate the info and even more knowing that while we don’t see much going on with N1, that doesn’t mean it isn’t actively being worked on :blush: With y’all’s track record for improvements and hard work I don’t know why I was worried in the first place. さすがの文プロ :smile:

I’d love it if the N5 grammar went into the pool even if I have N4 currently selected
