im on level 1 and want to join, but ive only been doing wanikani for 1-2 weeks and still am confused about everything. can someone tell me how i can join??
Nothing special to join. Just add your name to the leaderboard by editing the first post. As you level up you edit the leaderboard and move your name up the list changing your level as you go on.
ohh thx so much
Got to level 8 yesterday and spent half a day completing all the lessons! Yay!
I was so tired since it was almost 1am but equally satisfied.
Congrats! I am hoping to get to level 5 in the next few days, myself.
Congrats Sarah san 
You can post the screenshot in the 0/0 thread (If you don’t know the existence of this thread, it is a thread to post 0/0 screenshot of each level as a way of celebrating wins and encouraging each other
)

Finally hit level 11!
That’s a lot of lessons… again
but hey, I’m there! The level that blocked me last time around! I’m excited to exact my revenge!!!

Welcome to the Painful levels.
Thank you!! I’m excited and concerned 
Oh! I forgot to mention, I also just got my first few burns since resetting! We’re rolling at full tilt now, baby!
Have to say when I saw this Kanji in the lesson preview:
部屋
Was so disappointed when the pronunciation wasn’t:
ぶや!
On second thought, I guess the real reading is nearly as cool:
Hearty congratulations Jamuko san 

Go burn those Durtles 

I also reached the painful level start today!
Congratulations to everyone chucking away at those lessons and reviews! 

I had exactly 20 vocab lessons left before doing the reviews I needed to level up. But decided to not do them so I don’t end up increasing my apprentice items too much. Now into the new radicals!
Let the pain begin!

Level 15 Complete!
ぶや!
This was actually an easy level.

Kinda makes me nervous about the next one though…
Level 10! Happy level up to me!

Also a bit terrified to be in the double digits now…

Thank you! I didn’t know that thread existed! I will post there to keep track weekly 
Reached lvl 18 now!
It is the first time in my Wanikani practice that I have a constant and good progress. (10 Kanji lessons a day or 15-20 vocabularies) The motivation is huge currently, but I think I will reduce my speed a little bit, because I feel a little bit overwhelmed by my Guru amount. Before, I lacked the discipline and focus. Now I want to maintain it, but slow down a little to 11-12 days/level. As long as I am below 14 days I am happy.
Accidentally reached level 16 about two days earlier than expected. 
すごい!Congrats on the level up!
