Good Kanji Writing Practice I've been training with Kakitorikun for just under seven months now and I'm quite happy with it. Sometimes I find it a bit hard to pace myself on learning the kanji and as it's meant for Japanese primary school students it can be a little inaccessible in places, but it's still good material for learning how to properly write and read kanji and I always find Kageyama-sensei's encouragement to be quite entertaining.

That's a Nice soft ! I'm satisfied with the game.
This soft is certainly one of the best along with it sequel both for beginner and advanced kanji learners who want to review their knowledge.
Besides kanji practice there is also basic hiragana practice.
However it's better if you already know both hiragana and katakana so that you get along more rapidly with the game.
there are kanji writing practices and exercices with sentences. (all in japanese!!!)
But as you get better in Japanese this game will become a very good tool on the road to mastery.
It's a must have for your study. The game is runs well.

Great program! This program is excellent for learning how to draw kanji with perfect stroke and shape, also great for practicing readings. No english definitions are given however so you must look up the meanings separately.

Good tool for learning Kanji writing Very useful tool to learn kanji writing. However, you'll need to know kanas and have a dictionary to understand what you're writing... This tool is designed for japanese school kids and do not provide any translation.
But if you already master kana, some basic vocabulary and grammar, this is a wonderful tool !
I just check the words I don't understand on a online dictionary (jdic).

Great learning tool the organization of the kanji rocks, not only giving you a sort of leveled learning system, but making it less scary than giving you the whole list at once.
the tests are great fun. though i do have to use a dictionary at the same time currently.
only thing i'd add is the readings of each kanji, those i'm having to learn from the tests.
as the other person said, kanji sonomama rakubiki jiten and this make for a really good learning experiance. glad i have 2 ds's to do it on.
