Have you ever been going about your day, working on Vocab training while waiting for your Kanji reviews to refresh, when all of a sudden… you notice a single radical has popped into your lesson selection? A radical that, not only have you done in the past, but have reached Guru on its respective Kanji?

 ![Glitch... maybe.](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/wanikanicommunity/original/4X/7/7/2/77234b4489b14f74d66e2796c7c640991e8d4807.png)

It’s more likely than ya’d think. Idk if it’s really a glitch or if I somehow fumbled a review on it… but I think WK is trying to tell me something 😅

Have y’all ever experienced this? Is this a known issue or feature of the service?

I think it’s a new radical maybe. I just saw it in my lessons for lvl 3 as well, this usually happens if it’s a new item I think.
