Upon subscribing to the Paid edition, you will concurrently be granted a Chunagon account. Your Chunagon account serves a dual purpose. Not only does it grant you access to the Chunagon search system, but it also enables you to download a variety of data and tools available with the Paid edition. This is made possible through authentication via your Chunagon account. This is an important account. Therefore, please follow the setup instructions provided in the package accompanying the items listed in (6).

For those who want to use the Chunagon search system as soon as possible.

  • Your Chunagon account will be activated upon receipt of the corpus, as outlined in (6). Therefore, if you wish to start using the Chunagon search system as soon as possible, please apply for Chunagon separately from the application for the Paid edition of the corpus.
