So basically totally pointless and a waste of time and money because this ability comes really quickly when learning how to write kanji. This can be useful when the phonetic value is learnt with the corresponding graphical part, but since Heisig skips pronunciations the whole method doesn't not teach anything really useful.
- claudiawerner 4y ago"Learning to write kanji" is something completely separate from learning to recognize kanji. The book teaches you how to write kanji. The usefulness fo the book derives entirely from association with memory you already have. You're ignoring the fact that mnemonics which already exist in your mind can be used to write the kanji.
