I've been going through this for a couple weeks now. How long did it take for you to complete this?

That's too bad.

About a year.. Far too long. But it was very worth it I'd say.
If you want to make it shorter you can try "RTK lite" which has all the JLPT2 kanji plus the kanji that make up those kanji which is around 1300 characters. Then just take it from there and learn new kanji as you need them. There's lots of pretty useless characters in the jouyou list so this might be worth considering. If I had to start over that's what I'd do.

If you're interested check out the http://kanji.koohii.com forums if you didn't know about it already. Heck, check it out anyway, there's lots of useful information regarding RTK and learning Japanese in general. It's a very friendly and *mature* community. You won't find any 13 year old weeaboos there.

I'm only at the character learning stage before the actual readings etc, been doing it since july, now I'm at 1400~

5-15 new characters per day + anki

You could easily do more, I don't.

Thanks, but I have already have been using that. The stories users create are much easier to remember then the ones in this book.

You guys are wasting your time if it doesn't let you read the language.
You should only be using Heisig if you have trouble remembering kanji you're supposed to already know.

>> No.3976168

in your study, what are you doing to learn the characters ? ie- do you write them out 20 times, for example., etc...
what study methods are you using ?Asking because I am struggling with this....thanks..

Why would you use RTK? It doesn't even teach you Japanese.

>> No.3976330

RTK is for people who already know how to read the kanji, but can't write it.

I learn them from the tactile practice of entering them into my dictionary.
That's pretty much it.
