Japanese Edition by Max Hodges (Author), Tomoko Okazaki (Author)
4.8 out of 5 stars 20 ratings
We've gathered all the essential information needed to master kanji into a convenient flashcard format that makes learning and drilling as efficient as possible. The #1 Bestselling Kanji Cards on Amazon. Preferred by thousands of students, in over 100 countries, White Rabbit Press is the recognized world leader in Japanese kanji flashcards.

Product Features

  • JLPT Preparation - Volume 1 kanji are suitable for people who are studying for JLPT level N4 or N5.
  • All the Joyo Kanji - In combination with Volumes 2 and 3, this three volumes series includes all 2,136 Joyo kanji.
  • Joyo On- and Kun- Readings - The Joyo Onyomni and Kunyomi (readings) are shown for each kanji.
  • Six Vocabulary Per Card - Each card includes 6 vocabulary words, including commonly used kanji compounds
  • Stroke-by-stroke Diagrams - Learn to write kanji with stroke-by-stroke diagrams.
  • Look-alike kanji - alike kanji feature helps you look out for confusingly similar kanji
  • Kanji and vocabulary readings are shown in kana scripts (no romanji)
  • Compact flashcards format is perfect for self-study and self-drills.
White Rabbit Press flashcards include more vocabulary than other publishers' cards because the essence of a kanji is best grasped by understanding the meanings it forms when combined with other characters. We only use kana scripts--not romaji--to show kanji readings, and we provide clear and precise definitions in English, so you'll spend less time reaching for a dictionary and more time learning kanji.

What's New in Series 3

With Series 3 we've reordered the kanji cards based on frequency analysis of a large corpus of Japanese text (taken from newspapers, novels, and the web.) The most commonly used kanji is the most useful kanji to know, and that's the first kanji characters you'll learn.

Preparation for JLPT

The official lists of kanji for the new JLPT levels N1 ~ N5 have not be made public, however, as these are the 300 basic kanji they provide preparation for JLPT Levels N4 and N5.

Editorial Reviews

Review

The White Rabbit cards are a very useful addition to the learning aides for students studying Japanese. --Jim Breen, Monash University

White Rabbit Press Japanese Kanji Flashcards are a step ahead. Above and beyond the standard content, you get six example words rather than the usual four, full definitions, and a look-alike box that alerts you to similar characters all too likely to show up in trick questions in exams. As with all the best educational materials, it's clear here that an enormous amount of work has gone into making the learning process as easy and convenient as possible for the student. --Giles Murray, author of "Exploring Japanese Literature"

These are some of the best Flashcards I have seen for quality in construction and in content. --Clay Boutwell, TheJapanShop.net

    4.0 out of 5 stars Nice design, logical organization, but watch out for errors

    I've been using the cards for a couple months, and find them well designed and logical. I especially like the vocabulary words using the different pronunciations of each kanji, which I find the most challenging part of learning to read. In set #1, card #35 (chi), the first part of the stroke order diagram is for card #270 (ike). Not a big deal because it's an obvious mistake that won't screw you up, but I did have to find another source to be sure of the stroke order.

    Las cartas son duras y del tamaño de una carta de poker. A destacar como muy positivo el hecho de que vengan en Kana y sin romaji, facilita el aprendizaje completo sin caer en la trampa de mirar la lectura latina.
