Kanji Boy is one of those weird little Game Boy Color gems that somehow makes learning Japanese characters kinda fun. You play as Nobita from Doraemon (yeah, that blue robot cat), running around solving kanji puzzles and mini-games. At first it feels like any other educational game, but the Doraemon charm sneaks up on you—suddenly you're actually remembering kanji while helping Nobita not fail his tests.

The gameplay's simple: match kanji to their meanings, complete phrases, and answer questions before time runs out. It's got that classic GBC aesthetic with bright colors and chunky sprites. Not gonna lie, it's definitely aimed at Japanese kids, but if you're learning the language, it's a surprisingly chill way to drill kanji without feeling like homework. Just don't expect an RPG—this is pure edutainment with a side of nostalgia.
