Mojisuu Character Counter is a free browser-based tool for counting Japanese text. Users paste or type text and instantly see character counts with and without spaces, line and paragraph counts, 400-character manuscript page estimates, and UTF-8 and Shift_JIS byte lengths. The text is processed locally in the browser and is not uploaded to a server, and no account is needed.
Who it is for
Japanese writers, editors and students who need to check a character limit, line and paragraph counts, or byte length before submitting their work.
Problem it solves
Japanese text is written without word spacing, so word-based counters and editors that show only a rough length make it hard to confirm a character limit, and pasting a draft into an online counter may upload it to a server.
The solution
Pasted text is counted in real time with and without spaces, alongside line count, paragraph count, 400-character manuscript page estimates and both UTF-8 and Shift_JIS byte lengths, so a submission limit can be checked in one place.
What makes it unique
Counting runs in the browser and the text is not uploaded to a server, so a draft can be checked without sending it anywhere, and manuscript-page conversion and Shift_JIS bytes are shown together with the usual character count.

What do DR4, DR3 and the model difference mean?
DR4:
Ahrefs' newer model. It gives more weight to links from sites with organic search traffic and rates a subdomain on its own links.
DR3:
The previous model, shown in the Ahrefs app until 1 December 2026.
Model difference:
DR4 minus DR3 for the same domain. The models calculate differently, so this is not growth or a drop; the “since” lines compare each model with itself.
