Consistent daily practice is the most effective way to learn kanji. Research in spaced repetition shows that encountering characters at regular intervals dramatically improves long-term retention compared to cramming sessions.
The Kanji of the Day archive lets you revisit characters from previous days. If you missed a day, you can catch up. If you want to reinforce a character you learned last week, it's right here. Each kanji links to its full study page where you can practice quizzes, see example sentences, and add it to your personal collection.
At just one kanji per day, you'll learn over 365 characters in a year, more than enough to cover the JLPT N5 and N4 requirements and read basic Japanese signs, menus, and text.
