Ah, alright. So the way I’ve been studying Kanji so far is that I have four whole different sets I’m going through (I use Quizlet as opposed to Anki): I have just Kanji with their English translations, on’yomi readings, kun’yomi readings and vocabulary, and I’ve been going through all of these independently. I’ve had a feeling that this was a really backwards way of studying…. But at the same time they all seem important. So I guess I can’t decide if I’m studying wrong or if it’s just the difficulty of Kanji that I’m not yet used to.
And especially in regards to when there’s multiple on or kun readings. Do I really need to learn three or four different readings for one Kanji? (I know the answer to that is yes and I shouldn’t even be asking but holy cow is it confusing and overwhelming.) Especially since it seems like in TF, Koichi always places one kun’yomi reading on its own and the rest is in conjunction with vocabulary. That makes me wonder if I really should bother learning those readings independently or if I should just include it with vocab.

Hm, I guess I’m just confused on why there are on’yomi and kun’yomi for kanji and specifically what their specific roles are. The description provided in TextFugu never really seemed like it cleared that up. Are there certain times when you use on’yomi and kun’yomi? Is kun’yomi only used for specific vocabulary? Is the entire thing context based? (Because if so that seems like it’d be incredibly difficult for a beginner to understand or get the hang of.)
Btw sort of off-topic but on the topic of kanji: What’s people’s experience with using WaniKani as the main kanji tool along with TextFugu?
