A special radio program featuring Uemura alongside Saho Shirasu, who voices Alice, will also be broadcast on TOKYO FM on September 23, giving listeners insights into both the app's content and the journey to effective language learning.

Special Features and Events

The anniversary event will enrich the Risdom platform with multiple features aimed at enhancing language learning through gamification. Firstly, the inclusion of Uemura’s voice as Ridel will make the character more engaging as it applauds users’ learning efforts. The original song composed by Uemura adds an exciting musical aspect, embodying Risdom's core philosophy: making learning enjoyable.

Additionally, the radio program hosted by Uemura and Shirasu promises to deliver a blend of entertainment and educational content. It will include the latest updates regarding Risdom, anecdotes related to language learning, and an interactive Q&A section with listeners, merging learning with fun in an innovative way.

Giveaway Campaigns

As part of the celebration, a giveaway campaign is available for all users who sign up by September 30.
