    I know I can’t be the only one doing both TextFugu and WaniKani. Given that they introduce different radicals and kanji in a different order, how is everyone else syncing the two? I’m enjoying WaniKani more, since it’s not an SRS broken into daily increments, but broken into 15 minute increments. However, we’re also not getting sentences, and therefore grammar, in WaniKani. Granted, we don’t know exactly is in this upcoming big update of WaniKani, either.

    Koichi has no current plans to change WaniKani’s format. He is however redoing TextFugu which may utilize WaniKani type stuff, hopefully. But he’s pretty hush on the specifics.

    I started TF over a year ago, but then stopped for a few months, so when I came back I started from scratch. I also joined WK when I came back.

    So initially I skipped the Kanji bit here in TF, but when I hit level 5 in WK I added the Kanji here up to my current season, and I’ll add them as I come to them from here on out.

    For the most part, it’s added review as I am further along in WK with the Kanji than I am here. So it’s just reinforcing what I’ve learned at WK. I’ve also added all the Radicals here from the very start as they are really easy to learn and most of them he uses in WK, so I won’t have to learn them when I unlock them over there.

    That said, there are a few On readings he uses over here that he doesn’t teach us in WaniKani, like せん for river and せき for evening. I think he didn’t carry them over to WaniKani as they aren’t used nearly as much as the Kun readings.

    The radical Lack at WK, is Fail over here.
    Raptor Cage at WK, is Reinforced Enclosure over here.
    I think there was only one other that was different between the two.

    So yeah TL;DR: Study them here and at WK.

    I’m also doing both. I’m just skipping the kanji side of TextFugu altogether, since WaniKani basically seems like that budded off and grown into its own thing anyway. Maybe this will be more of a problem later on if a bunch of vocabulary start using kanji I haven’t run into yet on WaniKani, but I guess I’ll cross that bridge when I come to it.

    I did download the entire radical Anki deck so I could practice them offline and I figured there was no harm in getting acquainted with many of them early.

    I’m also doing them both. I started with WaniKani. Radicals, Kanji and Kanji vocab are very short reviews although I stop when something new comes along.

    I use both Textfugu and Wanikani. I just skip all the kanji stuff on Textfugu. Which can sometimes be a problem, since the kanji I should be learning on Textfugu are ahead of the ones I’m up to on WaniKani, but I manage.
