Thanks man this forum is what I keep coming back when I feel like finishing Wanikani in 1.5 year is impossible.
You get consistency in studying and the results will 
come !!
Glad to see itās helping you 
Anything youāre struggling in particular?
Nothing in particular. Iām just still canāt really wrap my head around some pronunciation different of those J- Z- S- D- sounds like ć ć¢ ć ć lol.
I think Iām not so bad for a guy that learn Japanese from Zero and reach this level in both Kanji and grammar in 5 months. I will keep moving forward. Thanks man you truely are my inspiration.
Oh I think the one thing Iām struggling is Iām not an English native speaker. So from times to times, I donāt understand some English translation for some kanji perfectly. And sometime I just canāt distinguish the different between some words like malice and malicious, sad and sadness, continue and continuity. lol
However, I still think wanikani is the best kanji learning tool.
Add synonyms in your native language, if you can. At best, the meanings are an inexact translation of the meaning of the kanji/vocab when it comes to more abstract words like malice.
So donāt get hung up on the English and just find a good word in a language you understand better and use that instead.
I feel you. At first, when I didnāt know the english translation I would look it up and try to memorise it - sometimes this would lead to me remembering the english word, but not what it means in my native language 
At some point I gave up and added the word in my native language as a synonym 
Besides the advice that has already been giving you, I think understanding the Part of Speech of the words youāre learning is important. If a Japanese word is tagged on Wanikani as a noun, then you can be sure that the English meanings will also be in noun form. Same with adjectives, the English meanings of a Japanese adjective will also be adjectives. That might help you with situations like malice vs malicious and sad vs sadness 
i never actually replied to your 1-month challenge here, and iām well over 4 months in iām pretty sure that Joenni linked this thread for me when i was new, and it really helped me understand how the SRS here worked. i only figured out the thing about a regular schedule a bit later, but that too has established itself strongly. all in all, a very very useful post, and one to recommend for other Wanikanians ^^
I, uh, realized that I never actually liked the posts until I hit 60. 
Even though I recommend it every chance I get.
@Joeni is an angel 
Totally understand the figuring out of the schedule later on. The guide can be quite an overload of information at first 
Any share you guys do is very much appreciated 
Also, anything I can improve on, Iād love for you guys to tell me Even if itās just a script I donāt have listed.
I-I try my b-best
Hahaha, almost the same.
Hi, i wanna add a recommendation for an android app. Its called āJakeipuuā and does the same as āFlaming Durtlesā But better. It looks like wanikani and also has some usefull scripts installed. Its the best for studying if youāre not at home.
I didnāt add it at the time it got released because it was very new. Iāll give it a look, but Iām sure Iāll add it to the guide as well. Thanks for the feedback!
An update: Iāll postpone adding Jakeipuu to the guide for now. I checked it out but it doesnāt even go past the loading of items to me It seems like some people have had the same problem several times in the past. Iām following Jakeipuuās thread to see if it gets fixed. Donāt really want to overwhelm new users with extra options, mainly when theyāre not working properly. But Iāll keep an eye on it!
Oh thats kind of sad. For me and my friends it works very well. Lets see if they can solve the problems (:
Oh oh ooohhh i found another super usefull app. Its called āTorii SRSā and gives you the core 10.000 vocab for free. Also it works well with wanikani since you can exclude the important wanikani words and end up getting around 5700 words on this app. Another great thing is, that you can choose what you wanna focus on. Recognition like wanikani does, recall like Kaniwani or BOTH at the same time
That could be usefull for everyone. Beginner and those who are on high level and wanna focus more on vocab. What do you think?
I appreciate the feedback. Iād say that Torii is not necessarily related to Wanikani for me to add it in a guide for Wanikani. It would make sense on a āHow to learn Japaneseā kind of guide tho Kaniwani and Kamesame are included because they offer a full reverse Wanikani option (English to Japanese).
Thank you for the amazing article.
So, if you pass a level via Guruāing kanjiā¦ then you have to do Radicals and Kanji but not Vocabulary? Does it mean that vocabulary is not obligatory?
Yeah, itās not obligatory. But I would highly recommend not skipping it, it helps remembering the kanji a lot more (and to see the words that the kanji typically forms).
