The Japanese Novel Ruby Plugin for Obsidian is a must-have for those who enjoy reading and writing in Japanese. This plugin enables the insertion and display of ruby (furigana) marks, a common feature in Japanese literature that aids in reading comprehension. Users can easily format their text using familiar syntax seen on popular Japanese novel websites. The plugin provides a user-friendly interface that allows you to edit your documents while previewing the ruby markings in real time. Commands like novel-ruby-insert and novel-ruby-remove streamline the process of adding and removing ruby marks. With support for both English and Japanese interfaces, this plugin enhances your writing experience in Obsidian, making it an invaluable tool for writers and readers alike.

The Furigana plugin for Obsidian adds functionality for marking selected text with ruby annotations, allowing users to display furigana readings for kanji. This is particularly useful for learners of Japanese, as it provides immediate access to pronunciation guides directly within Obsidian. The plugin enables users to highlight text and apply the `<ruby>` HTML tag to show furigana readings. Currently, the plugin is focused on this annotation feature, with plans to add automatic kanji-to-hiragana conversion in future updates.

The Markdown Furigana plugin enhances the readability of multilingual text in Obsidian by rendering furigana annotations, commonly used in Japanese and other languages. By applying a simple markdown syntax, users can display kanji, kana, or other scripts with pronunciation or transliteration aids, improving comprehension and accessibility. The plugin processes furigana rendering during preview mode without altering the original notes, ensuring clean and flexible note editing. It supports multiple furigana sections, allowing detailed annotations for complex scripts, making it particularly useful for language learners or those working with annotated text.
