About Iroha Karuta
"Iroha Karuta" is derived from the "Iroha Uta," a poetic sequence that encapsulates the essence of a shallow dream and drunkenness, transcending the proverbial Okuyama to a place where colors scatter to the scent. This karuta song utilizes the 47 characters of the Japanese hiragana script, known as "Iroha," and includes an additional character, "Kyo," as the starting letter for each phrase tag. Originating in Kyoto during the mid-Edo period, it spread to Osaka, Nagoya, and Edo (now Tokyo). Our quiz app focuses on the Tokyo-style phrases, providing a unique cultural experience.
