Why not Anki?
Anyway, you're not going to like this but here is a solution that will more or less force you to "learn" kanji.
Work through Remember the Kanji, book one, using Anki with a good RTK deck.
This link has both the book and deck- neat.
https://mega.nz/#F!CMtGhCzD!2Yw8vL8jw3vei7QkGyno-w
OR
Work your way through Kanji Damage, using the website for reference and a good KD deck in Anki.
www.kanjidamage.com/
Choose one of these
Official KanjiDamage deck REORDERED
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1917095458
KanjiDamage Plus+ deck
https://mega.nz/#!CQg0SKyI!Ufho0RKmmW8P6XRx8KiDY1JeAXoGOgmjrEscayil8cA
OR go straight into a kanji deck. I suggest one of the following:
Kanji production deck with stroke order diagrams, RTK/frequency/etc. orders, example words, keywords, readings, etc.
https://mega.nz/#!jx0TUSyJ!Rohq5IgT3JDRHtBN5e4VLXHzY8i9SniF9EhrlzHbVSI
Kanji by Frequency with Stroke Animations
mega:///#!EMQRBa4C!o8o5g1SAVQcA9L3kxcidgLkpFAowt2q5sUju_pNfKuE
All in One Kanji Deck
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/798002504
Do this alongside something like the Core series decks avaliable in the CoR -I recommend the Core10k deck- and it will be almost impossible not to "learn" kanji. It also takes fuck all effort and you will retain the knowledge. In six months time you will know more about kanji than you will likely be able to forget. That will be enough for everything you will likely want to study in relation to kanji, unless you want to take a crack at Kanken some time later. Realistically I just gave you the steps and instructions that will product better and faster results than wanikani, for free.

My bad, I'm guessing that was the entire context? I assumed you cut out the relevant part of the statement which I assumed would have fallen after ー. Is that Jisho?
>>138662547

>>138662218

>>138661923
Its not the lack of context, but the lack of input. Wanikani forced me to learn through writing shit.
The way anki works with trying to learn in your head with only a couple of buttons to press if you learned it or not wasn't interactive enough for me.
What I'm looking for is a free version of wanikani. I think it's the best for retards like me who can't learn normally.
>>138662739
so use the on screen whiteboard to draw before reveling the answer
>>138662684
imo they were forced to publish before they had enough editing time. theres a lot of variation in whether parts of speech contractions have periods at the end too, and amari ia marked wrong. still, the actual frequency list is a lot better than what i could make and the long prologue essay on the purpose and work put into making it is pretty good
>>138662739
you can have text fields in anki too, but you still have to pre fail.hard.etc yourself. check tha manual for info
Guys, can you help me understand something? I'm playing めぐりあう2人の名探偵 on the ds. Since I'm terrible at recognizing compressed kanji, I turned on the furigana option. I got to the part where a former female schoolmate of Kindaichi sent him a letter asking for help. My question is, why was there a furigana used for 私 while there was none for 手紙?
>>138662857
Maybe to show what type of 私 was used? It can be pronounced わたし、あたし、わし、わたくし etc, depending on the type of person
>>138662857
watashi's official reading is watakushi, which is so formal it hurts. there are also some other common normal readings of it, like atashi. marking the reading is probably a way to disamviguate it for the context its in.
>>138662739
The deck in this post >>138662142 under the description
>Kanji production deck with stroke order diagrams, RTK/frequency/etc. orders, example words, keywords, readings, etc.
Is production orientated so you have to write the kanji out correctly to pass the card.
How does that differ to this wanikani you seem to think you can advertise and get away with?
It is obvious what intentions here are, anon.
>>138662739
Get a notebook and write? It's not that hard.
>>138662901
>>138662906
Ah alright. To differentiate things. Thanks. I was just confused because I saw わたし as the reading for 私 written on the sent letter so I'm like, wait, he knew who sent it so what's with the reading?

WK is 5 bucks. If its exact methods hit home with you, there's nothing stopping you from using it. It's possible to learn vocab *entirely* from text-hooking without ever touching Anki. WK's speed wouldn't make a difference in this scenario.
Man I see でも all the time but I still don't feel like I fully understand it
>>138664421
>there's nothing stopping you from using it.
The fact it's objectively inferior to anki in every way should be a strong factor in not using it
http://pastebin.com/ujNXfMtB
> It's possible to learn vocab *entirely* from text-hooking without ever touching Anki.
Yeah it's possible to learn everything exposure, doesn't mean you want to do it or it's the best way

May as well not use WK if it's speed doesn't make a difference.

>Yeah it's possible to learn everything exposure, doesn't mean you want to do it or it's the best way
I've learned vocab entirely through text hooking for about a year now, and I can read most moege without Rikaisama at this point. The main thing to note here is that not a single moment has been a frustrating, dull grind. It is infinitely better than forcing yourself through 500+ reviews each day. Perhaps not as efficient, but then again, I've never been close to burnout or questioned why I'm learning Japanese.

Just fyi, RTK is guilty of this as well. In my limited observation of KD, it does too. It's not just Wanikani that is a little creative with English name of radicals.

Doesn’t exactly rate much more than a few paragraphs, really.
The VN does have a couple of funny lines or so, but otherwise it’s poorly written, poorly edited, incredibly cheap, and generally screams its being a cash-in from the rooftops. It’s a textbook example of hack writing.
And the VN is still better than the light novel, which is so badly written it’s borderline unreadable, particularly at the beginning.
Who thought it was a good idea to make it a series of disjointed lines like it were a transcribed VN? Or make the narrator a third-person person despite not being one in the VN? There’s also casual cheerful light-hearted mind rape via hypnosis. All ages!
The stories themselves are so fake, so manufactured, so forced, so devoid of anything remotely resembling a point or a soul that even their sugar tastes like plastic.
And it didn’t even have sex scenes! What a waste.

You should read this, http://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=%E3%81%84%E3%81%91%E3%81%AB%E3%81%88&ref=sa
For those of you who are still confused, remember your favorite shounen jump's serial. There ought to be character with titles there, hiken no Ace, or sharingan no kakashi. In English it's fire fist Ace and sharingan Kakashi.
So yuki no setsuna is snow Setsuna. Since there is ikenie and yuki, japanese norm is to state the first one mentioned first so it becomes "Sacrifice and snow Setsuna".
Now because it's English, "Setsuna of sacrifice and snow" sounds better. The same way Kakashi's becomes "Kakashi of the Sharingan" and Fire Fist Ace's should be "Ace of the Fire Fist" as well, literally speaking.
What's the best / most accurate voice generator for awesomeTTS?
I'd like to do a kanji study for the purpose of learning to write, but also because I think it will help me stop confusing words with similar kanji.
What is the best way to set up anki cards to prompt for writing kanji?
>>138668608
Pay a Japanese person to hang out with you all day and read things out loud for you.
>>138668640
RTK is the best resource you can get for learning how to write. It's in the CoR under 教本.
>>138668640
Buy a good kanji book. Learn the six classification of kanji, 形成文字 is a good term to know. Know about 音符 and 音符, and also being aware of the existence of 当て字 and other irregular readings.
Now study and utilize Anki like you usually do.
>>138668726
>>138668824
I'm more so just curious about the best way to prompt for writing because it seems like putting the actual character there would kind of be cheating.
Like what should the front of the card be?
>>138668852
Read the introduction of RTK.
You should be putting a keyword (you can also use a Japanese reading) on the front side and then write the kanji using the radicals you know.
Two years of doing the core6k decks. I did nothing else. I still have alot of trouble reading anything as I'm too lazy to read anything about grammar so I just guess. Though I did read some basic stuff.
I got a third right on the n3 sample test. Damn I feel so slow.
>>138667658
Is this a meme post? I'm sure I've seen this question before.
>>138668852
Do you want to write because you want be able to write and work for Japanese company? Or do you want to practice writing so that you won't confused one kanji and another?
If you want to be able to tell the difference between 会議 義理 礼儀 犠牲 then, what I said earlier.
If you want to write, the other anon is mostly correct, RTK is the most famous book on djt for the purpose of learning how to write kanji and while it's certainly a very good book, "best" is debatable.
I don't use Anki for writing practice so I can't give you answer on that aspect other than what pops onto my head when I read your question. Like maybe put on the front card the hiragana, i.e. れいぎ ぎり かいぎ ぎせい.
>>138669078
No shit you're going to feel slow if you just do two straight years of vocab, not to mention core vocab
>>138669122
>RTK is the most famous book on djt for the purpose of learning how to write kanji and while it's certainly a very good book, "best" is debatable.
If you know any books that better than RTK for this exact purpose, I'd be glad to know. Besides, anon explicitly said he wanted to write. Knowing the kanji phonetic components is only going to help with reading, not actual writing.
>>138669122
Name one situation where you would need to write. I'll give you taking notes even though you can do it in hiragana.
>>138669271
... Not to mention that it took 16 months to get through 6,000 vocab (12.5 words a day) and then he spent 8-9 months doing no new words

>>138669078
You can't learn Japanese.
>>138669078
What was your cards/day ratio? Sorry to say dude, but this looks horrible. Two years for Core 6k damn, what a chore.
>>138669303
The anon he's replying too said he wanted to write.
>>138669122
On KD production cards you have the 'meaning' of the kanji and the on and kun yomi.
Why do so many of Tae Kim's example sentences have something to do with weight loss from not eating properly and stuff? Did he suffer from anorexia, or some shit?
>>138669078
And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.
Sorry you fell for the meme, dude, and wasted 2 years at an extremely glacial pace on fucking newspaper words.
People seriously need to understand that anything past 2k is SOLELY for if you didn't really feel like reading that much and you need to stick to your 20-40 new words a day pace. You throw in some Core just to make up the numbers because you'll probably see those words at some point anyway.
You don't just sit back and go through core while not working on any of the other elements of Japanese. If you were having fun, you could have easily done 2-4 times more words daily without burning out.
Are cards in Core2k in the same order as Core6k?
>>138669542
It depends on the deck.
>>138669344
>What was your cards/day ratio?
You can do that math yourself >>138669317
>>138669449
>And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.
He broke the two core tenants of anki - 1, he stopped adding new cards, and 2, he didn't mine his own new words. Nobody ever recommends to do anki and never read or never add new cards. It's always recommended with those two tenants implied or otherwise stated.
>>138669609
You're fully aware that his new cards ratio might very well have fluctuated, right?
>>138669449
>And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.
Literally no one has ever said that.
>>138669437
Asians are really obsessed with their weight so you'll no doubt hear these kinds of conversations frequently in Japan.I completely made that up but I wouldn't be surprised if it was true considering how uncommon fat Asians are.
>>138669437
It's normal for Japanese and Korean people to talk about weight. At least for Japanese women, even the as-seen-on-TV カップサイズ is normal.
Does anyone know where I can find the Core 2k deck? I honestly can't find a link to anything that isn't 6k or 10k.
>>138669800
Why not simply go through the first 2k of the 2k/6k optimized in the CoR?
>>138669767
Its true but for girls only
>>138669842
Isn't the 2k/6k optimized in an order optimized to show you things based on kanji? Which would indicate that the first 2k of the 2k/6k isn't actually the same cards as 2k.
>>138669903
You should never go through the original 2k. Even if you wanted to go through 2k, you'd need the optimized i+1 version of the 2k (AKA nukemarine's version). That's the best way to go about Core. Don't try the old 2k, it's shit for learning.
>>138669903
It is the same. 2k (and 6k) is organized into steps of about 200 cards without much organization within the steps. The optimized version just puts the cards within the steps into an order based on kanji.
Japanese is going to be very useful in terms of advantages over my friends, for about the third time.
First time, he couldn't understand a south partk joke in Japanese.
Second time, couldn't find a song name due to Japanese.
And finally, just now, I realized Dark Souls 3 comes out about 2 weeks earlier in Japanese. I can buy it via my PS4 Japanese PSN account. He will wait while I don't have to. Haha.

If you're going to spend that much on a physical grammar, why wouldn't you spend your money on something more worthwhile like Japanese the Manga Way?
Since I don't have plans beyond understanding how to read and listen, the 97-Day Kanji Challenge by Nihongoshark appealed to me since it was basically RTK but Kanji -> Keyword.
I'm about 750ish cards in, but at this point I'm wondering if I should just switch to doing one of the KanjiDamage decks since it seems like it'll take me closer to my goal in the end.
Do you guys think it's worth starting over? I'd like to get through a Kanji recognition deck before the summer, since that's when I'll really be trying to learn.
>>138670253
If you're going to spend that much on a physical grammar, why wouldn't you spend your money on something more worthwhile like Shin Kanzen Master?
>>138670276
Depends on your new cards/day ratio.
>>138670276
If you're already 750 cards in, then stay the course I'd say. Starting over with some new regimen is just going to be a huge waste of your time unless you're doing something retarded.
>>138669078

so legit
>>138670276
>97-Day Kanji Challenge
What's different from KD there? No On/Kunyomi?
>>138670353
Good eye. Here's a legit chart.
>>138670324
I'm at 20 cards/day right now. 25/day is the max I'd go since I don't want to burn myself out.
>>138670393
It's RTK, so yeah, no readings at all.
God damn why is it so much effort getting started as a translator
>>138669276
That anon also said
> it will help me stop confusing words with similar kanji.
>Knowing the kanji phonetic components is only going to help with reading, not actual writing.
I don't just say 音符 mate. I said 音符, 意符, and 形成文字。 Say 会ぎ。 I know it's a 義, but which 義?
Based on 意符, I can guesswork that it's "probably" the 言義 so 会議.
礼儀, same thing. It's a 人儀 so 礼儀. It doesn't always work every time as we all know, but it helps.
>If you know any books that better than RTK >for this exact purpose, I'd be glad to know.
Yeah totally. I prefer Hadamitzky's book to RTK. I compared both in the beginning and I like how Hadamitzky's book is structured compared to RTK.
Secondly, without going into much details, I much prefer Hadamitzky's radical explanations compared to Heisig's "primitive" explanations.
Somewhere before the first 100 kanji, Heisig taught a "primitive" called "mist" and "by one's side". That is Heisig's own entry for his book, not of the 214 kangxi radicals.
I also like the fact that Hadamitzky's book let me know that 心 is called りっしんべん since it helps me figured out that 忄is going to be on the 編 side of the kanji.
It's just preference. I know somebody who swore by RTK, another that used Hadamitzkys, and somebody else whose favorite kanji book is Kanji in Context, which is no longer in publication.
Reordering kanji to make it easier to memorize is done by other kanji books too these days, RTK is not the only one that does that. I don't disagree that RTK is excellent, "best" is just debatable to me.
>>138670485
It's really hard to say... If you just started out I'd say to KD, but as you are already so far in... Although you might just do KD with more new cards (40 a day or something) as you should already know many.
>>138669303
Honestly, on djt I have a slight opinion that it's not that necessary to know how to write, especially if the main goal is to play VN. I think writing is only ever useful for those whose goal is beyond just japanese comprehension. Like maybe working in Japan or for japanese company or something.
>>138670509
> 心 is called りっしんべん
心 isn't called that, 忄is called that.
Perhaps you didn't know that you can actually type radicals in your IME
