Show HN: I built the literal Duolingo Killer

On the homepage screenshot, there's an "it's" where it should be "its".

Details matter if teaching language.

This is a description that turns on every red light in my head: "netflix for", "binge watching", "turning into", "keep you hooked", "but smarter" etc. - probably I'm not the target age demographic or maybe this is an American thing? Also, the meaning of literal, here, would be something like having a hamster named Duolingo and you built a gun to kill the animal. That's a literal killer appliance.

To preface this, I'm not a Japanese speaker, so perhaps my fears are misplaced, but learning from anime seems like it'd present users with a very particular flavour of Japanese (i.e. one that is much more hyperactive or exaggerated than how the language might be used in day-to-day conversations between native speakers).

That being said, if this is meant to be an alternative to Duolingo, which is insistent that you absolutely need to know that the bear wants a cup of tea, then I guess this is infinitely better in that regard.

By literal, I assumed that you meant that the app allowed you to kill Duo the green owl, which I am sure many people feel like doing after all the cajoling, threats and emotional manipulation that he deals out when you miss a lesson.

I would love an option that doesn't require sign in with Google.

I kind of imagined the app would be more than a handful of random sound samples for anime with subtitles?

I'm guessing the content is ripped (possibly legally due to the short duration - and using only(?) sound? Although if the subtitles are ripped too, I imagine that's not fair use?).

Which app store?

This is an ai generated website scam :/

Can you disclose if AI was used to build the app, and, if yes, in what capacity?

Old man yells at cloud: that's not what "literal killer" means.

I was expecting a kind of game where you shoot the Duolingo bird. I am disappointed now.
