Too many Kanji!
I think my brain might melt.
I’ve had a good run recently, and learned a lot of new Kanji, but after a pretty lazy weekend my number of Anki reps has increased manyfold, and I’ve started to struggle to take them in. A couple of days after learning them, they come up again and I find I’ve forgotten them utterly.
So, for now I’ve set my new cards per day to 0. I’m going to spend a few days just doing reps, consolidating the 811 Kanji I’ve already covered. When I feel ready again I’ll increase them.
It’s a shame, because I want to get them done with soon so that I can move onto sentences. I’ve just made my first Amazon Japan order (more on that in a later post), so I’m really excited about getting that stuff, but really until I finish the Kanji I won’t be able to start reading anything.
Still, I think this is the correct decision. Maybe I’ll set it to 1 new Kanji per day just so that I’m getting something done. When I’m ready, I hope I’ll come back fresh and ready to learn!
