Over at hanziwallchart.com we’re selling a wallchart with the 1500 highest frequency characters as well as wallcharts with the HSK Vocabulary Words. Available in both Simplified and Traditional.

Unlike Japanese it’s not plausible to put EVERY character onto a poster so we’ve gone with the highest impact 1500 characters, which makes up around 95% of the characters used in everyday writing/reading.
I worked out the size of printing 10,000 + characters on a wallchart and the only option would have been to produce it as wallpaper – I kid you not..

Anyway, if anyone is learning their hanzi we’ve got stuff available at hanziwallchart.com and also on Amazon.

Cheers,

Kyle

We purchased kanjiposter.com and took over Paddy’s poster business. Basically we wanted the domain name to promote our own kanji poster, so now we are making two kanji posters available.

I think we can improve the design of the Heisig posters with better typography and wanted to get your opinions of any other improvements. Could you tell me what kinds of changes you’d like to see? I have a deal with Heisig to license the keywords (but not the primitives), so we can include the keywords on a poster. Would you like them shown side-by-side with the kanji, or in a separate reference section (i.e. for self-testing)? Or perhaps side by side by written backwards or upside down!?

We could also include the White Rabbit Kanji Flashcards reference number, or would the RTK ref number be more useful?

Let share you’re ideas, and we’ll do our best to create the poster YOU want. The design and printing should go pretty quickly, so once we have the design decisions finalized, we can bring it to market in just a couple weeks.

Cheers!
Max

The left and right lines are 9mm apart. I don’t know what font size that is.

This was stated on Kanjiposter site, but isn’t Joyo Kanji supposed to be 1945 or something?

No, seriously. I ordered mine a week ago, and much to my surprise, they were having a special and mailed me two posters instead of one! OMG KAWAII (^_^) (and whatnot).

Every day I look at this poster, and all I can think is, “I can do this”. Not this is hard, or there’s a lot to do, but I can do this. And I can see my accomplishment. I’m just waiting for the day when I’ll wipe the slate clean and only have kanji highlighted because I like them, not because they’re ones I’m having trouble with.

In other words:
If you could pay someone a small fee to feel absolutely motivated, would you? There is a company which will roll up this emotion and mail it to you. You will lose weight. You will eat better food. You will mow the lawn. You will do the dishes. I’ve been doing laundry daily since I got this poster, compared to before, wearing the same pants for a month because I used to be that unmotivated. Your results may vary, in that even khatz is better than me, so you are undoubtedly much better than me, and you can go farther.

Order this now. If you don’t order this, do something else like it, because there are absolutely free alternatives. Read the entry on posting goals where you can see them. I was one of those badass dudes who said posting goals was dumb, and now I would make hot love to my poster if I could. Did I just say that out loud?

Emergency! Kanjiposter.com is down! What happened?! Where are they?!

I initially put off buying the poster because I had photocopies from RTK taped together in sad imitation of a poster, but I yesterday walked in to find my dog digging at said pages (which had fallen off the wall) and forming them into an elaborate den.

This poster is still advertised all over this blog, so I’m guessing they just forgot to pay a hosting fee or something, but help!

I’m actually in the one week starting period, breaking into Japanese immersion, and I’m collecting my resources on a fixed budget. I find the starting process the hardest. It’s like i have half the tools, and a third of the plan understood. Yet, I think having a white board next to this poster works well. Now i can write out my stories, the kanji, or the keywords and play a search game. I even bought little sucker darts. There’s nothing as fun as kanji darts, especially with some Kreva playing in the background.

It’s not expensive if you live in the UK, If i want to print this in a print shop at the corner in this size it costs me around 100$ (yes i did ask them)
Hope it arrives soon. 😀

Never mind, there is no way to put the kanji in the order of Remembering the Kanji just in the page… but there is a cross-reference tool. Sorry to double-post.

You can set your Paper Maker up to cross-reference Remembering the Kanji (which I did, even if I have never seen a copy) and I am entering the kanji in order. Might take up a lot of paper (and time) but for a free resource… highly recommended. And the best part… completely customizable =)

Also he’s big on fables and roman myths or whatever for making stories. I skipped most of these, they were just bleh. Not a fan of the story method (too many unimportant elements etc.) to begin with and I ain’t religious at all. I’m surprised he didn’t change it in one of the later editions. I also hate how he uses “popular phrases” to make the primitives memorable. It really isn’t helpful if you’re a non-native english speaker/non-british-or-american-english-speaker and doesn’t make sense to use anyway.

Still miles better than any other method I seen so far and it’s only for the early lessons but man C’MON.

I find it a bit unsettling myself, but his book seems to be by and large the method of choice for Westerners to use in their kanji-ing, and certainly I’ve made use of it myself a bit…

This is totally against the philosophy of spaced repetition. You take the hammer and hit the nail good and hard one time. If you continue to strike the nail with the hammer, you’ll start damaging the area around the nail.
