About Us
Kitsune Education
Kitsune Education was launched in order to offer affordable, fun and engaging digital and print products for speech therapy and language learning.
Kitsune Education incorporates anime-inspired illustrations and Japanese design aesthetics into products in order to enhance speech and language practice.
Anime-styled Illustrations are characterized by large and expressive eyes, a rich color palette that includes a multitude of hues and shades (especially for hair, clothing, and eyes), and exaggerated expressions when conveying emotions.
Anime styling in essence prioritizes the character's personality and innate skills and traits over offering an overtly realistic drawing or animation.
Kitsune Education's mission is to be of service as a fun and engaging educational technology resource and website for anyone with a communication or adult language learner with an appreciation of anime design and Eastern/Japanese culture.
