Took me a year and a half but I’m glad I finally completed it. Now, I’ll focus more on grammar and study for the NLPT and keep being exposed to Japanese media.
Congratulations!

Good god, I don’t understand how some people get through it all in only a year in a half or so. I’ve been doing WaniKani every day since mid-2018 and I’m only level 35. Big congrats, though! I’ll get done eventually lol, it’s certainly not a race.
I accidentally made a typo XD… I’m going to keep it in I think it’s funny…

I still can’t finish it. Reached 60 in a year an a half two years ago, and there’s still around 200 leeches that don’t let me get everything burned.
Haha what a great first post!
Hello - I’ve just finished ![]()
But all the same CONGRATULATIONS ![]()
when your first post is you casually mentioning you got to level 60!!!
as the kids would say: “epic!”
let there rain cake!

did you do the reviews every hour when they came out ?? or how often did you do them \
There are 5 stages to upgrading a kanji from apprentice to guru. The first stage is when you finish the lesson, the second stage is available 4 hours after the first stage, the third stage is available 8 hours after the second stage, the fourth stage is available 24 hours after the third stage, and the last stage is available 48 hours after the fourth stage.
I always finished the lesson when I got home from work and then finished the second stage before I went to bed. The third stage was then available when I woke up, and then the fourth and fifth stage would be available at the same time. So I was able to finish the kanji reviews when I woke up.
This leaves a one day gap between the 4th and 5th stage where you wouldn’t be working on the kanji you’re just learning. Also, after you finish a level you get a lot of lessons of vocab and kanji. Because I learned the kanji the vocab lessons weren’t that bad but learning new kanji took me longer. So during the gap between 4th and 5th stage, and always when I had an awkward amount of free time, I would start learning the kanji in the next level, remembering their readings and meaning.
Because of that when I finished the 5th stage in the morning I would able to quickly finish the lessons for the new kanji and vocab and then upgrade them later when I got back from work. And then repeat for a year and a half.
