The RTK Method

Why Most People Fail at Kanji
(And How to Actually Learn Them)

Trying to memorize kanji by brute repetition doesn't work. The Remembering the Kanji method assigns each character a memorable English keyword and a vivid story — turning abstract symbols into images your brain holds onto.

01

One Keyword Per Kanji

Every kanji gets a single, precise English keyword. 日 = Sun. 木 = Tree. 火 = Fire. No ambiguity, no confusion.

02

Visual Mnemonic Story

Each character is broken into visual primitives and linked by a short story. Weird and vivid stories stick — that's the point.

03

Quiz in Both Directions

See the kanji → recall the keyword. See the keyword → draw the kanji mentally. Both directions build solid recall.

04

Track Your Progress

See exactly how many kanji you've learned per JLPT level. N5 first, then N4, N3, N2, all the way to N1.
