This is my first post in wanikani community, been using non stop through the last month (28 days to this day), been loving this style of learning kanji, but I have some questions. ▶ Summary TLDR: Today was a difficult day to me because I did 300 reviews, and 150 lessons. This lead me to think that …

Thank you for all your responses, I’m now flagging this as a solution bc everyone helped :slight_smile:

There is a difficulty curve, but not like the diagram you posted. On one hand, as you progress the number of daily reviews increases until you start burning items (meaning you never review them again), so your workload at level 10 (for example) will be greater than your workload at level 4. On the o…

Honestly, I think you just need to pace yourself. If you do too much within a short amount of time, those lessons and reviews pile on really quick. Better to set limits and take the learning at a reasonable pace. What I try to do is keep the Apprentice level stuff at 100 or below. Don’t add anymore…

In my experience, the difficulty curve… barely exists… You’ll find some scary looking kanji later on but they only look scary. The process to learn them is the same: Know the radical, learn the mnemonic… and most advanced level kanji are similar to what you’ll find in lvl 25 or so. As for workload… …

@seanblue [image] seanblue: My biggest recommendation would be to not try to do all your lessons in one go. I did all of my lessons in one go because they never were this much, still, I will try to do less [image] seanblue: I personally used [Userscript] WaniKani Lesson Filter I will…

Keep in mind that the earlier levels will go a bit faster than most too. So what everyone has said is great advice. It is going to sound easy now and it is fairly manageable to knock all lessons out in one go, but this begins to change later and pacing yourself becomes key. My average for the first …

ik its alr been said but youre doing wayyy to many lessons if you wanna keep it manageable youll still be able to level up at about the same time if you do like 20 or so lessons per day, but it’ll be much more manageable and spread out i made that same mistake when i first started too but since th…

I found doing all lessons will lead you to trouble later on. If you miss a week because of life stuff, you can come back to like 800 reviews and it’s overwhelming. What worked for me, and the simplest to manage, is halfway down the dashboard it shows you how many Apprentice, Guru, Master, Enlighten…

It’s not too bad going full speed, if you feel like it. Just increase the pace gradually until you are satisfied. Just do the reviews daily, no matter what, even on christmas.

You should know it’s already been done, and that you have already failed if that’s your aim, so there’s no reason to do that here:
