"I can't retain the content even when I read books."
"My concentration fades after just a few pages, and I give up."
Despite struggling with these issues, I avoided reading until age 45, but now I read classical literature every single day without fail.
For the old me, reading was "hardship" and a kind of trauma.
However, when I reread a work I had studied in school due to a certain trigger, I was struck by a revelation.
"The content is entering my mind so vividly……!"
It was the moment when the historical context and life experience I had unconsciously accumulated over the years became "guide lines" for the story, and the dots and lines connected.
"If I had understood the 'plot summary' and 'historical background' from the start before reading, wouldn't people like my former self—those with reading anxiety—be able to enjoy masterpieces more freely?"
This app was born from that real-world experience.
【This time, complete it. Transform difficult classics into "cultural assets" with the ultimate infrastructure.】
Natsume Soseki's "Kokoro," Osamu Dazai's "No Longer Human," Ryunosuke Akutagawa's "Rashomon"……
Haven't you ever wanted to read these someday, only to close the book when faced with difficult kanji and archaic writing styles?
This app was developed to transform the vast collection of masterpieces in Aozora Bunko into "a lifetime cultural infrastructure" where you can "read smoothly, listen, and understand" through the power of technology.
Before starting to read, check the work's "plot summary" or "writing background explanation." Since you see the big picture first, even difficult classics sink in naturally. Perfect for creating reading notes.
When your eyes feel tired, switch to narration mode. Adjustable from 0.5x to 3.0x speed, turning your commute or housework time into efficient learning time. Background playback strengthens your vocabulary through listening.
For special notations of the era and difficult kanji like "弗 (dollar)" and "紐育 (New York)," modern-language ruby annotations are automatically added. No need to stop and look up words in a dictionary.
Reading becomes more enjoyable when you can see "how much you've read."
The beautiful statistical graph feature (fl_chart) converts the number of characters and time you've read into data. Since your accumulated knowledge becomes visible, motivation continues and reading naturally becomes a habit.
"Aozora Bunko"—humanity's treasure—now in your smartphone.
Please experience the "emotion of reading a masterpiece to completion" that I felt at age 45.

「本を読んでも内容が頭に入ってこない」
「数ページで集中力が切れて、挫折してしまう」
そんな悩みを抱えながら、45歳まで読書を避けて生きてきた私が、今では毎日欠かさず古典を読むようになりました。
かつての私にとって、読書は「苦行」であり、一種のトラウマでもありました。
しかし、あるきっかけで学生時代に習った作品を読み返したとき、衝撃が走ったのです。
「内容が、鮮明に頭に入ってくる……!」
歳を重ねたことで、いつの間にか身についていた時代背景や人生経験が、物語の「補助線」となり、点と線がつながった瞬間でした。
「もし、読む前に『あらすじ』や『時代背景』が最初から分かっていたら、かつての私のように読書に苦手意識がある人でも、もっと自由に名作を楽しめるのではないか?」
そんな実体験から生まれたのが、このアプリです。
【今度こそ、完読。難解な古典を「教養資産」に変える最強のインフラ。】
夏目漱石『こころ』、太宰治『人間失格』、芥川龍之介『羅生門』……。
「いつか読みたい」と思いながら、漢字の難しさや、文体の壁に阻まれて本を閉じた経験はありませんか?
本アプリは、青空文庫の膨大な名作群を、テクノロジーの力で「スラスラ読める、聴ける、理解できる」一生モノの教養インフラへ変えるために開発されました。
読書を始める前に、作品の「あらすじ(要約)」や「執筆背景(解説)」をチェック。物語の全体像が先に見えるから、難解な古典もスッと頭に入ります。読書メモの作成にも最適です。
目の疲れを感じたら、朗読モードへ。0.5〜3.0倍速まで調整可能で、通勤中や家事の時間が効率的な学習時間に変わります。バックグラウンド再生で、耳から語彙力を強化できます。
「弗(ドル)」「紐育(ニューヨーク)」など、当時の特殊な表記や難読漢字に、現代語でルビを自動付与。辞書を引くために手を止める必要はありません。
「どれだけ読んだか」が分かれば、読書はもっと楽しくなります。
美しい統計グラフ(fl_chart)機能により、読んだ文字数や時間をデータ化。積み上げた知性が目に見えるから、モチベーションが続き、自然と読書が習慣化します。
「青空文庫」という人類の財産を、あなたのスマホの中に。
45歳の私が体験した「名作を最後まで読み切る感動」を、ぜひあなたも体験してください。
