Sometimes if I type the wrong reading (on vs. run), the reading field will ‘shake’ and give me another chance to get it right. Other times, it just marks me wrong. What’s the difference? When does wanikani do one vs. the other? The seeming inconsistency is a bit strange and irritating.

"Shake, try again" vs "Red, that's wrong"
