KLC 漢字レベル別 読解練習例文集（和英対訳文）
30,500 mini reading exercises with parallel English text
With over 30,500 reading exercises graded character by character, parallel English text, complete pronunciation guides, and extensive grammar support, The KLC Graded Reading Sets series is the most powerful Japanese reading comprehension tool available today. While its character sequence follows that of Kodansha’s widely acclaimed Kanji Learner’s Course (KLC), the series is an irreplaceable resource even for those who have studied kanji by other methods.
(…But if you have not learned the kanji yet, by all means use this series alongside the KLC—you won’t regret it!)
The series contains an average of over 13 reading exercises for all 2,300 kanji in the course. The exercises for each kanji contain only kanji already introduced earlier in the course, allowing learners to begin using kanji and kanji-based words as they learn them, and to continuously review what they have already studied.
Each exercise appears in three parallel forms: Japanese text, Japanese text with phonetic guides, and English equivalent. Phonetic guides indicate word division as an additional learning aid. To further accelerate your learning, the series introduces hundreds of key grammatical structures as they appear, with cross-references that allow you to quickly find in-depth information about any structure that may be unfamiliar to you. This contextualized grammar support allows you to master a wide range of sentence patterns through the natural process of reading and understanding..
Like the main KLC textbook, the GRS series eschews the use of rômaji for readings, giving you constant background practice with kana even as you focus on mastering kanji meanings, vocabulary, and usage.

Testimonial:
In six years of “studying” Japanese, I can definitely say this is hands-down in my TOP 2 best Japanese study materials. Along with the author’s previous book, The Kodansha Kanji Learner’s Course, which gets the #1 spot on my list, this is an absolute must. I can’t say enough about the quality of these graded reading sets, as it’s obvious the author put a lot of time and effort into creating them. The example sentences provide a solid understanding of the actual kanji used in various contexts. Some kanji have up to 30 example items, and the examples the author used were also fantastic. The advantage compared to every other Japanese language study material is that you can actually see and understand the kanji in different forms, which greatly helps remembering them. I think this is best used side-by-side with the KKLC, but if you’ve already advanced quite well through the kanji, you’ll still find this useful. I personally wish there were a printed version, but that’s not enough to justify anything lower than 5 stars. Overall I can’t give anything but praise for this.
