@lain Why do you think so? Basically my reasoning is: since pronunciation of words has barely any correlation with kanji and the meanings of radicals don't give much hints towards meaning of the kanji either, there isn't much reason to learn them (and radicals) first instead of learning them naturally through noticing pattern in learned words or looking them up when reading.
(also words with grade 1 kanji are mostly just the lone kanji anyway)

@lain basically yeah, I'm learning words with kanji, not kanji by themselves.
I'm using sottaku.app for the flashcards since it has nicely organized presets. Once I get grade 1 kanji down, maybe N5 if grade 1 isn't enough, I'm gonna do just reading and sentence mining. I never did contextless memorizing in anything.

@lain Since I'm crippled, I'm not learning the strokes, because I would be going at max speed at about 0.5 kanji per day.
But yep, once you learn enough you will start seeing the similarities.
