AI-POWERED · JAPANESE LYRICS SYNC
Upload a Japanese song and get a timed lyrics file back, kanji, hiragana, and katakana exactly as sung.
Upload a song and get line-by-line synced lyrics with AI.
Japanese doesn't put spaces between words in native script, so lines break by natural phrasing rather than word count, which trips up tools that assume every language segments like English. Many fans also want romanized lyrics alongside the native script, for reading along without knowing kanji.
This AI LRC generator transcribes Japanese song audio directly and exports every file as real UTF-8 text, so kanji, hiragana, and katakana all come through correctly, whether the AI transcribed the song or you pasted your own lyrics. Paste your own romaji as the lyric text and the AI aligns it to the audio the same way it would native-script lyrics.
Exports as UTF-8, so all three scripts come through exactly as transcribed or typed, with no encoding loss.
Since native Japanese script has no spaces between words, lines are timed to how the vocal actually phrases rather than a word-count grid.
Paste in romanized lyrics instead of native script and the AI aligns that text to the audio the same way.
No lyrics on hand? Upload the audio and the AI transcribes the Japanese vocals itself, then times the result into a standard .lrc file.
Fan communities that time and translate anime opening and ending themes need accurate line timing as a starting point before adding subtitles or a translation track.
Following synced lyrics while listening is a common way to connect how a phrase is written with how it's actually sung.
A standard .lrc file works with common karaoke apps and players, so a synced Japanese track drops straight into an existing setup.
Add an MP3, WAV, or M4A file. Paste your own Japanese or romaji lyrics too, or leave it blank and let AI transcribe from scratch.
The AI listens to the vocals, keeps kanji, hiragana, and katakana intact, and times each line to when it's actually phrased.
Check the generated timestamps, adjust any line that's off, then download a standard, UTF-8 .lrc file.
Deciding where a Japanese lyric line naturally breaks without word spaces to guide you is slow by hand. This tool times to the actual vocal phrasing automatically.
Anime opening and ending themes, J-pop, and city pop are all widely listened to outside Japan, often by people who don't read Japanese but still want accurate timing. The AI doesn't need the genre in advance.
