Translation

The pond water in a Tokyo park has turned a matcha-like green.

It is because tiny plants are multiplying fast inside the pond.

A researcher at a university said that just looking at it does no harm to your body.

But when they die, they give off a bad smell.

They say the only way is to drain the pond completely.

But that work costs a great deal of money.

Why six school grades, and not N5–N1?

Because that is how Japanese children learn to read. Japan's Ministry of Education fixes exactly which character belongs to which grade — so "grade 3" is a boundary you can verify, not a feeling. Every article here is machine-checked: if a single character sits above its grade, it is not published.

The result: you never hit a character you have not learned. That is the whole reason this product exists.
