Played around with it some more and this definitely beats everything else out there for me. Its behaviour is way more customisable than the competition and it has a bunch of useful options that I've never seen in any other Rikai replacement, like
>lookups of hiragana strings will not produce definitions that are not at least usually kana

The downside is that the Anki support is not very good, at least for now (I presume the author will improve it at some point). Functionally, it works a similar way to Yomichan's Anki support, but it doesn't seem like there's any accompanying Anki add-on so you have to manually save the cards it creates to a text file and then import said text file into Anki. It also seems that you have no control over which information you want to mine about a particular word*. Fortunately I don't use Anki so this isn't an issue for me, but for others I could see this being a deal-breaker.

*Default seems to be: word (dictionary form), reading(s), definition, word (as it appeared in the text), source sentence, position with in the sentence... I think (e.g. mining 一撃 from "一撃で命を奪う…" will yield the number "1"), and finally the word's JMDict ID. Doesn't seem possible to select just one reading unfortunately, so mining 少女, for instance, will give you 《しょうじょ、おとめ》 in the reading field (pic related). Also, since the cards have to be manually saved to text, it goes without saying that they don't contain audio.
