[User Feedback]
"I rarely have the opportunity to output information about the news. Various industries are covered, allowing me to learn about worlds I didn't know." (Female, 20s)
"I thought I read the Nikkei quite a bit, but I couldn't get the answer right. The link between the quiz and the article deepens understanding. Reading the explanations gives a sense of conviction." (Male, 20s)
"It feels like a 'forced mechanism' that makes me look at and understand articles I'm not interested in. TV and newspapers just pass by without output. Output is meaningful." (Female, 30s)
