Throughout my own trial-and-error, Im grateful to have stumbled across one nugget of gold: White Rabbit Kanji Flashcards. Im taking University-level Japanese (we use Genki) and was looking for some supplemental Kanji materials (the Genki text is a little Kanji-light, methinks). I tried several different books and cards without satisfaction (including Tuttle) until I discovered White Rabbit. Now my Kanji skills are way ahead of everyone else in my class--I know on-yomi and kun-yomi, common compounds, stroke order. Dont be daunted by what looks like TMI! As other reviewers have pointed out, these cards are extremely well thought out and organized: - They follow the JLPT levels (although I can attest that they are great even if you have no intent to ever take the JLPT) - They use kana for all pronunciation (Sayonara romaji!) - They incorporate 6 frequently used compounds on each Kanji (this has turned out to be a huge aid for me in memorization as it provides a context for the individual Kanji) - Plus radical breakdown, stroke order, commonly mistaken Kanji, an excellent index, and theyre really durable cards! Ive now moved on to Volume 2 and just cannot recommend these cards highly enough! Max and Tomoko-san have earned an A+! BTW, if you carry your flashcards around with you, White Rabbit sells some cool plastic cases that fit around 60 of these cards.
