This paper reports a study on Japanese listening training support system by using Anime. The proposed system divides episodes of Anime into scenes by using silent sections of Anime. The system evaluates a level of a scene by using words and expressions in subtitles of the scene. Users of the proposed system are assigned scenes of Anime which level is suitable for the users. We experimented with the proposed system to verify the efficiency of the system. Participants of the experiment watched scenes given by the proposed system. They took tests prepared from previous JLPT listening tests before and after watching scenes. The scores after watching scenes were higher than those before.
