I will point out however that what Mister explains about learning the readings is something that has nothing to do with RTK at all. Similarly, even the meanings of kanji can be learned through words. Because of this, you don’t need RTK at all because even at the end of your 3-4 month journey of completing RTK, you still end up learning words from vocab decks and end up learning readings and kanji meanings this way. This is what I have been doing for the longest time. I only recommend it just because some people here seem to have been “enlightened” by it in a way that god only knows. I have even tried RTK for 2 weeks with a grain a salt but it turns out that it was a waste of time just like I expected. If the problem is being exposed to kanji a lot more, then theres always immersion, surround yourself in Japanese.

Which leads to me to this question: If you are killing 3-4 (kanji readings, kanji meanings, being able to know meanings of actual words, actual words enabling you to actually read) birds with one stone by learning vocab, then what exactly are you studying when you do RTK or any kanji study method for that matter? ….Kanji? What exactly about it? You learn good study habits? You are exposed to kanji more? All of these have nothing to do with RTK at all.

When I say “I’m off to study kanji!”, I’m really only trying to write them from memory.

For a second, I really thought you mean that Radiohead and Arcade Fire were Japanese bands. Anybody else thought the same?

I will ask to have your post moderated. All the pictures that have been posted up to now have been mostly Tokyo Girls Style members and AKB48 members so it’s alright for me to post them. But posting other random people’s pictures that may seem personal just like yours is a big no no.
