It's an SRS used by Japanese learners of English!

What's bizarre about Japanese people wanting to study with a flashcard system? iKnow is very popular in Japan, and there are a number of Japanese users using Anki to study English, including some of my students.

What does 'P-Study System' mean? Specifically the P. I presume it refers to something equivalent to SRS?

Going off of how GNU et. al. are named... it stands for "P-Study System"... as in the "P-Study System" Study System.

Good point! Seems like kind of a stretch though.
