柿鳥君

I was surprised at how naturally the kanji stuck with me using this, even though I'm not great with textbooks. The way it focuses on elementary school level characters makes it feel manageable rather than overwhelming.

I wasn't expecting a game to actually make kanji stick, but drilling through the 1,006 elementary school characters has become part of my daily routine. The pacing feels right for someone self-studying, and I've already noticed myself reading signs and menus with way more confidence.

I’ve been drilling the 1006 elementary kanji with this DS card and the stroke-order mini-games actually help me remember readings. Only wish the quizzes had a bit more variety—still, it’s a solid study tool.
