If you don’t mind using user scripts, there is one that will hide the meaning during lessons at first.

[Userscript] Wanikani Lesson Spoiler Removal

This is a third-party script/app and is not created by the WaniKani team. By using this, you understand that it can stop working at any time or be discontinued indefinitely. Some people just want to cycle through their lessons like flash cards before the lesson quiz. Unfortunately, the meaning of the lessons below the kanji/vocab can ruin that experience. This should help. [image] (apart from this lesson, you never have to worry about spoilers in your lessons any more) How…

You can also customize that script to only hide the meaning for kanji (and not vocab) if you prefer. For example, here’s my edited version that only hides for vocab. You can probably replace vocabulary everywhere with kanji to get that effect.

Code

// ==UserScript==
// @name        Wanikani Lesson Spoiler Removal
// @namespace   Mempo
// @description Hides the meaning below kanji and vocab on lesson pages
// @include     https://www.wanikani.com/lesson/session
// @version     4
// @run-at      document-end
// @grant       none
// ==/UserScript==

(function() {
    'use strict';

    //HOVER EFFECT

    var css = '#main-info #meaning {visibility:visible;} #main-info.vocabulary #meaning {visibility:hidden;} #main-info.vocabulary:hover #meaning {visibility:visible !important;}';
    $('head').append('<style type="text/css">' + css + '</style>');

    //CLICKING

    $('body').click(function(e) {
        $('#main-info #meaning').css('visibility', '');

        if ($('#supplement-nav ul li.active').text() === 'meaning' || $('#supplement-nav ul li.active').text() === 'Meaning') {
            $('#main-info.vocabulary #meaning').css('visibility', 'visible');
        } else {
            $('#main-info.vocabulary #meaning').css('visibility', 'hidden');
        }

    });
})();
