Product Description
The NEW 3rd Edition of White Rabbit Press' Japanese Kanji Flashcards: The Complete set of Kanji required for Levels 3 & 4 of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test
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.
Preferred by thousands of students, in over 25 countries, White Rabbit Press is the recognized world leader in Japanese kanji flashcards.
Each card includes six vocabulary building kanji compounds. We 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. Each card also includes the kanji's On and Kun readings, stroke order diagrams, look-alike kanji, and more.
Quality Construction
Cards are varnished with rounded corners for durablilty.
Color-Coded
* 103 JLPT Level 4 cards in Green ink
* 181 JLPT Level 4 cards in Blue ink
*Includes a complete index.
*Boxed with plastic tray and shrink-wrapped
What's new in the Third Edition?

I have used many different books, websites, and cards in my quest to learn Kanji, and this set of cards are by far the best I have come across. The cards themselves are very well made, with a plastic coating that has so far proven impervious to wear and tear.
This set has all of the Kanji required for the 4th and 3rd levels of the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test.) In addition to the basic character and it's readings, each card lists several different vocabulary combinations. These include words needed for the lower levels of the JLPT, as well as more complex formulations that will be seen on the 1st or 2nd level of the test. They also list words and phrases that may not appear on the JLPT, but that are useful to know.
While nothing can take the place of a Japanese class or at least a textbook, these Kanji cards are an excellent way to improve you reading and writing skills and expand your vocabulary.

I am very satisfied with these cards- they are of a decent cardstock and as such, have been pretty sturdy. They really are exceptional. A good number of the cards have mnemonics on them, which is great to help you remember the core meaning of the kanji. There is a lot of good information on these cards, so they will be helpful regardless of your stage of learning. My only complaint would be regarding the mnemonic pictures- I wish ALL of the cards had them! A good number of them do though, and sometimes a kanji needs to be learned just as they are, I suppose. Otherwise, I would say these are great, portable and sturdy flashcards that will help you learn regardless of where you are in your Japanese language journey!
Nice Kanji! February 26, 2008

I bought these but I never spent much time with them. They seems like very good quality card with some complex explanations on there. I would recommend them, but I had to drop Japanese.
Great flashcards February 9, 2008

These cards are nicely made and provide great study material. I've taken them to Japan twice and studied them on the flights, trains, and so on, alternating with the JLPT vocab lists. If you get into a habit of spending five to ten minutes a day with them, you'll eventually pick up a ton of kanji. It's about the consistency rather than spending a lot of time in each session with them, so try to find a way to work them into your routine. Supposedly if you make your own flashcards you'll retain the info better, but that's a major time investment so I don't know if it will pay off in the long run; this probably depends on what type of learner you are. The JLPT level indicators were a big step forward in the recent edition, which shows how the folks at White Rabbit really put a lot of thought into their products.
