As we look to the skies, we wait for the Crabigator to descend from Planet Kanji and anoint our heads with sale. Welcome it. Welcome it.
It’s the once-a-年 sale. Could this be the last? WaniKani Lifetime memberships are now $100 cheaper than usual. What a discount. Bless.
The Crabigator doesn’t slash prices to the bone like this for just anyone. It could only be for me, for you. The chosen.
Of course, if you are a level 1 or 2 acolyte and haven’t finished the free levels, don’t buy Lifetime just yet. Remain steadfast, not tossed back and forth like a soda can in the waves. Find out if WaniKani is right for you. Bless.
But if you will soon be level 4 or already have a recurring subscription, the Crabigator wants you. Wants me. The chosen. They who have claws let them snip.
The sale has already begun and will end at 9PM PST, December 22nd. This is the earliest Our Crabigator has ever returned to Planet Kanji, so don’t delay or you will be left behind.
If you already have an active monthly or annual subscription, you will get a prorated refund automatically after you purchase Lifetime.
If you have any questions, send us a chat, email us at hello@wanikani.com, or tag @Mods in this thread.
That means whatever time you have left on your (monthly) subscription gets refunded to you when you upgrade. For example, I had about 2/3 of my yearly subscription left when I upgraded to lifetime, so got about 2/3 of its value discounted from the already discounted price when I upgraded (2/3 * 89 is a little less than 60, so I got about that much discounted when upgrading).
Ladies and gentlemen, I come to you as a changed man. I am now a lifetime member!
Also, the e-mail that I got after signing up for the lifetime membership might be the funniest thing I’ve come across this week, and I spend a lot of time listening to comedy podcasts. Hilarious.
Whoa, whoa, whoa. At first I was angry because all the noise woke me up. Screams, shouts… and, perhaps the sound of a champagne cork popping off? I sprinted downstairs, ready to do some yelling of my own when I saw the banner:
frequent4832 IS A LIFER!
That’s when I jumped onto the crowd from six steps up. Didn’t even think about it. Just jumped. Every single WaniKani Team member was there to catch me and I was crowd surfing. Looking back, I feel a little guilty because I think they thought I was you (it was dark, and I did yell “HERE COMES frequent4832! CATCH ME!!” as I jumped on them). As I slid around on top of everyone’s hands, they began to cheer your name:
“frequent4832! frequent4832! frequent4832!”…
This went on for a long time. Days, I think (though it feels as though only seconds have gone by). This event will forever go down in WaniKani history. I think I even caught in-house monk Morimotoさん practicing what he plans to tell his grandchildren one day.
“Grandpa, tell us the story about the time when frequent4832 became a Lifetime member on WaniKani…”
“Alright Morimoto III, but you have to promise to go to bed after…”
Anyways, I digress. I just can’t believe it’s all true. You’re here now, and you chose team Crabigator. Plus, every time we see you level up (if you turn around really quickly while doing your reviews you might see all of us standing there, just for a moment) we’ll have another party. We’re counting on you for more kanji party time.
