As someone coming into Wanikani at N3 level that doesn’t use the Wanikani mnemonic story radical system, I would love for there to be a way to mark cards to basically never see again (or at least automatically pass them when they appear). For example, cards I 1000% already know, and radicals that de…

[image] Cobblar: For example, cards I 1000% already know, I don’t really get the point of blocking these. If you know them so well, it should be some easy peasy review. If you’re a fast typer, you can knock these out in seconds. [image] Cobblar: radicals that deviate from their actual …

Looking into this! It looks right up my alley, thanks.

If it were just a few, it’s fine. However, they add up. When 30%-50% of my cards are wasting my time, suddenly it becomes really annoying to get through my reviews. Ideally I don’t even want to waste keystrokes on them. It’s kind of the same idea behind the script that automatically moves to the ne…

[image] Cobblar: at N3 level that doesn’t use the Wanikani mnemonic story radical system Honestly, to me that sounds like you’re better off not using WaniKani. There are plenty other Kanji SRS platforms like kanji.garden or you could simply get an Anki deck that is to your liking. These tend…

These kinds of threads pop up with a good level of frequency. I recommend you go read through replies on them, because they’ll collectively provide better advice and insight than I can. If you want a TL;DR, WaniKani is not likely to ever provide the feature you’re looking for, so if you decide it b…

There is no such script. The only approximation is to use the double-check script to ignore those cards and mark them correct during review. And it’s quite important to do so, because failing a radical or a kanji can delay your level-up by quite a lot, so you really want to be sure to get them righ…

[image] Arzar33: The only approximation is to use the double-check script to ignore those cards and mark them correct during review. Yep, other than not using WaniKani, this is probably the best suggestion. I believe Double-Check also has lightning mode built-in (which automatically moves to …

+1, the lightning mode of double-check helps a lot to go through review faster. I also use the reorder script to activate 1x1 mode in order to consistently get the reading and meaning of a card back to back, and it also cut down a lot the review time. With this setup, on material I know very well,…

Yeah, I’ve used Anki pretty extensively in the past, but it’s just a bit too fiddly for me to keep up with. I really like the user script ecosystem for Wanikani and like how easy it is to use in general. I kind of wanted to have something that starts from the beginning, just because I want to make s…

Script that automatically passes/skips cards?

WaniKani

Sound’s like you’d be better off just ignoring WaniKani and using KameSame instead. Among other features, you can go through all the WaniKani items by level and block the ones you already know.
