Drop your level up chart here 📈

I reset from level 15. I don’t plan on keeping this pace starting at level 21, but I love that I managed to keep all levels below 8 days.

wow, even having 10 lessons every day you can still have less than 150 itens on daily review?

how is your apprentice? For me I keep below 90 and I spend days without any new lesson or a week, because daily I have 160 itens in review, if I do 10 lessons a day it would become overwhelming.

This is how my turtles fare.

Also looking at the timeline.

I don’t use any reorder scripts. I assume that is how you level up in 7 days?

After level 19 I started doing Kaniwani as well, which is why each level is taking slightly longer now. I am finding Kaniwani a pretty useful tool to test whether you really know the vocab :slight_smile:

yeah take mine with a grain of salt. i have a ton of free time due to my health issues :sweat_smile: one of the few upsides with health issues/disability i suppose.

Took a bit of time before I settled into a consistent pattern but I think I’ve found it now.

I’ll also include this since a few others have done so:

I started back in 2015 when I was still in high school, bought the lifetime membership at level 8 and then dropped it when I went to university :sob: I got my bachelor’s degree in Japanese studies, but since the pandemic started I hadn’t been studying any Japanese. I wanted to get back into it and honestly I’m having so much fun. It’s been going smoothly since the level I’m at is is mostly kanji and vocab I already learned in my language classes, but I can’t wait to enter more challenging territory. Feels good to be back!

Haven’t given up, yet… :slight_smile:

oof
Well mine looks interesting lol. So I originally made an account and went “meh, this radical thing seems slow and dumb” and dropped it. Came back after learning about the fact WaniKani is one of the few learning tools that actually takes the time to find out which readings of words are most commonly used and teaches those first when I thought that was pretty standard. I’m curious what this graph will look like in a few months after I’ve (hopefully) stuck around with consistency, and also what it’ll look like when I start reaching Kanji and vocabulary I’ve never seen since I’m at least somewhat familiar with about 80% of what I’ve learned so far.

Pretty consistent despite the fact I was away the entire weekend last week! Really hoping to keep this pace up for a good while.

On your heels ! I kinda had the same thing. Needed to take a break for lvl 30, life caught up hard. Never missed a day of reviews though :slight_smile: I hope I can reach your level (soon).

What mine doesn’t show unfortunately is the year and a half I spent on level 37 before I reset to 15

You can see the exact moment I realized I decided to turbo through to 60.

Wow, looking so sharp :0
Great job!

Mixcture between fast and not going out of my way just to save few days, consistency really is a key i would say

Thanks!! :blush:

Level 1 took me 627 days… because 2 years ago I made an account, did 2 lessons to see how it worked but actually started with WK on Feb 22 this year. Kind of ruins my stats now :slight_smile:

So close to the end of new items…

I have no idea how people speed run the last 51–60 fast levels. The concepts feel more abstract and harder to stick in my mind. Also, as soon as you finish a level by getting Guru on the kanji, it unlocks all those vocab to solidify the readings.

mine’s a mess :smiley:

had two breaks/resets during the last year because of health issues. during the slow levels there, i was also working on large review piles. i think i’ve found a comfortable pace now, which accommodates bad days, and am aiming to finish in about a year and a half maybe?

current items is nicely balanced
