App has a really nice UI, but I'm not sure why it showed up in my recommends if it's Japanese based. So far, I've not been lucky to find other active foreigners on the app. And while there are language settings for English, the topics under which you can chat with other users are in Japanese, so I'm not sure where to post. Also, I think in-app purchased can only be made in Yen 💴, so it's really no use to foreingers.

Thank you for your review! 'recommends' indicate users around the same age. now we didn't separate foreign user from sever. If foreign user will increase we will do it!
