Wow. That’s a huge discount from $39.99.

Are the sales usually once a year?
Isn’t the one on sale for the holiday only the digital PDF though? I feel like that is why I never actually picked it up…o.o I may buy this soon (even without a sale, just for my own studies)
Also, random dumb question…I did pick up lifetime but the circle next to my name hasn’t changed. What gives? It still says 4 free…o.o
Try relogging in. Mine didnt change color at first either
What are you supposed to do with the 4,500 sentences? Read and understand them? Use them in practice? Translate them?
I’m curious; just confused.
Edit – Ah, I see.
I’m vaguely interested, but I’m at about N2 level (may or may not have passed in December; pretty confident in passing in July if I didn’t), and already doing a lot of my own reading and amateur translating. Can anyone weigh in on whether that’s a level where something like this would still be useful?
I don’t want to turn down any convenient practice, which it seems like this might be, but also don’t want to wind up paying for something I’ve already covered most of.
I am currently attemping all of it… luckily I have a native speaker teacher who can check my translations

I think the results should be posted for December JLPT on the website January 23rd
Edit: Ah, okay…looks like my log in was saved on 4 different systems so now I logged out of all from the preferences and I’m purple, woohoo

You need to log out of the forum, not wanikani.
(I’m saying that just in case, since some people made that mistake in the past)
Edit: eh, glad that worked anyway

I wrote this not as a direct reply to who I tagged, but I’m just sharing if anyone interested in getting it before it’s back to its normal price again, the time to get it is now. I got email from Tofugu informing this.

I bought the names. Great deal. The sentences are good value but I don’t see myself using them.
So now you’ll be earning royalties every time a Satou is mentioned?

That would add up pretty quickly. In Okinawa I’d go for Higa and Oshiro.

What are then good sentences to mine, random from websites?
Not sure I understand the question but I used Tangorin for example sentences:
Oke, but what do you mean with you wouldn’t use this sentences? Aren’t they good exercises?
I imagine they are pretty good. What I meant is that I mightn’t get around to using them. And I try not to buy stuff unless I am sure I will use it. As reading practice, I also think that they might get boring quickly. I just read a NHK News Easy article about deer licking the train tracks for iron. Much more interesting.

Ah, oke haha. I don’t think you hould use this to read a fun story, but to get better at translating.

I bought this when it was on sale but it seems very difficult at this point (I’m maybe just barely at N5 grammar level, and my vocab is mostly just WK. If anyone has used this successfully, at what level would you say it makes sense to start it?
edit: meant to reply to the thread in general, not this post 
I’m using it right now (also bought it when it was on sale) and I’d say it’s great for my level. There are a lot of sentences I can’t translate, mainly because of vocab I don’t know, but I think that’s expectable.
In terms of kanji it thankfully doesn’t have furigana and it doesn’t really look begginer friendly. Instead you are presented with sentences someone would say IRL regardless of how simple/complicated they are.
I’ve completed Bunpro’s N5 and N4 and I’m currently halfway through N3 and the grammar is understandable to me almost always.
Basically I’d recommend it for someone at arround level 30 and with at least N4 level.
I plan to write a post when I finish them all and I’ll get more in detail then 
I started these but I actually told myself I’d come back when I’m at level 50. There are a lot of random words in there with kanji I don’t recognise. It was still helpful at a lower level, but the more kanji you know the better I reckon.
