WaniKani mnemonics in image-form done by AI

Thank you for this fantastic idea, I totally love it! :heart_eyes:

There is one mnemonic that totally exceeds the limitations of my phantasy,
could you help me with this one please? :sweat_smile:

A tsunami crashes into the sun, which is then caught in a net tied to a stool! Wait a second… this doesn’t sound realistic, this is from that pirate manga you’re always reading!

Manga starts with man (まん)!

I’m interested in what the AI would create for the reading of 鳥 (bird).

Your lovely bird swells. The shape of a face, then a hand, start stretching the bird apart until it explodes outward. Covered in blood and feathers is Mrs. Chou.

In level 2 Mrs. Chou is described as a big evil lady with black curly hair and red eyes.

Ok I’m not sure if that image will help or confuse you even more🤣 I’ll try to do another one in manga style so it matches the reading.

Why did you introduce this? Now I have to pay for another toy…

Honestly! I’m so weak for stuff like this - I used my trial and then was immediately like… I NEED to subscribe, TAKE ALL MY MONEY.
I also use it when I read books - I read a lot and sometimes if cool sceneries come up, I want to see what the AI makes of them. ^^

I used this description: Your lovely bird swells. The shape of a face, then a hand, start stretching the bird apart until it explodes outward. Covered in red liquid and feathers, it’s Mrs. Chou, a big evil lady with red eyes and curly hair

They are not allowing anything with the word blood so I had to use red liquid and I wanted to describe mrs chou a little for the AI and she made her SO PRETTY. Apparently Mrs. Chou is not only mean but also stunning lol

I honestly now would just wish for wanikani adding the image option to the notes for words so I could save them up somewhere - anybody has a workaround? :smiley:

Love it ! I’ve had difficulties to make sense of some of the mnemonics because i’m not that good at picturing absurd scene (and crabigator only knows how many there are !) and this could very well help me to put an image on the mnemonics. Plus it looks so niiiice !

I’m not sure for any add-on that could allow an image, maybe via an URL or something ? Other than that, you could rely on an ANKI deck. It’s not ideal as it would be an other app but as it has already been said, using such impactfull image probably works best if used on words you struggle on.

Thanks for doing this thread! It’s a delight :blush:.

This one is not a leech and it’s not quite a WK mnemonic (I’ve slightly tweaked it to better match a scenario that I’ve actually experienced), but how about one for the smoke kanji 煙?

“A helicopter flies over dirt toward the fire, the sky thick with smoke. It’s the end.”

I’m curious how the AI image compare to the real ones here.

Hey there and welcome to the community :raised_hands:t2::purple_heart:

Yes, I was thinking about anki or quizlet but I know that It would probably get too much for me, using another app on the side. :sweat_smile:
