whoop!
to think i had first planned to be done sept 2021!
now that i reset and i’m taking 12 - 15 days to level up, i guess i’m looking at finishing 2 years from now or a bit less.

Except the latter levels take half the time…so maybe??? Anyone? People do pull it off in a year…agree with Saibaneko though, even if you could do it it would have to be your main focus for 2022, perhaps not worth it…

I think you meant 1/1/23. Just wanted to help 
I’m in, let’s do this.
Let’s do it!!
That sounds like a nice pace though. It’s still weird to see you behind me level wise

There have been a few that have done it near max speed and I think the record holder was like 4 hours behind, but expressed having had sleep issues for unrelated reasons in their level 60 recap post.
I’m all for going “fast”, but 60 in a year is not something I recommend. Easiest way for me to summarize it is by quoting the guide.
Select quotes from "My Journey of 368 days (+ The Ultimate Guide for WK)"
Chapter 6 is just me telling you not to go full speed (read it also).
Everyone wants to go fast. I get it. I’m the dude that named their thread “My Journey of 368 days” after all. I don’t have much of an opinion here to tell you to do otherwise, or do I? Please hear me out here: I’m a college student with too much free time. I had the time and motivation, so I did it.
My first argument for full speed not being necessarily a good thing is that the last 30 levels won’t be as productive to your Japanese learning as the first 30.
Don’t get me wrong, the last 30 levels are still very useful. Imagine not knowing around 1 kanji every 10: still annoying, don’t you think so? But this is an interesting concept: Maybe you can go faster for the first 30 levels and then slow down a little and focus on other areas of Japanese learning
At the last 10 levels, I was doing 400 reviews every day while also trying to keep up with my other Japanese studies (and life!!!). Not everyone has the same time, mental energy or interest to go full speed. We don’t need to.
Slowing down to 7d or 8d levels instead of 6d 20h gives much more consistent and flexible scheduling and most people go slower. Unless someone is able to put in diligent student levels of effort every day to do WK + grammar studies + immersive material going at the fastest pace on WK is a bad idea.
It’s a different story for people already sitting in the middle levels, but those who are in the early levels and single digits should just stick to doing their best at more realistic year end goals. IIRC, the admins said the average clear time was like 1.5-2 years. Plan accordingly. Considering joining threads like WK study budy, monthly progress, leaderboards, or the skytree.

Maybe It isn’t entirely relevant to 2022 but I’ll certainly see myself and others to 60 in 2023. I’ll at least join the pact in saying I’ll try my best to keep up!

I will reach 60 next year without speeding through the fast levels.

Can do! I should be hitting 25 just before the new year rolls over so the last 35 shouldn’t be a problem at my current pace.
I’m in! :3 I’m at level 28 currently, and I’ve been managing a nice pace recently, so I think this should be an achievable goal for 2022 :333
The real question is, will you keep up with weight lifting to keep your muscles looking like that…

Finish WaniKani before Ghislaine Maxwell “commits suicide” in prison. Now that’s a real challenge.

Of course. Any time a tape conveniently malfunctions or gets stolen is because something fishy happened. Always. Without fail.
