The video kanji closeup was terrific and has the potential to be the best thing you do, especially showing the strokes in order. You might also want to show them written by brush after you show the schematic drawing.The download is a bit slow, even with cable broadband; you should tell people to pause the download until it is all loaded for best results.

Keep up the good work and try to slip in some material which is not geared solely for the Harajuku teeny bopper crowd and you’ll expand your audience.

This invaluable free advice is in appreciation of your having given me an extra free week. WRS

I didn’t notice the videos.
It’s nice but a little hidden, so I think many didn’t saw it.

Sugoi jpod but… only one kanji?. The video section of the web should be much more important. Learning kanji with them is really easy.
Thank you very much

Holly says:

Arigatou, video suki deshita, demo…

I have a few comments in agreement with others.
1. Like wrs I would prefer to see the Kanji written with brushstrokes, since that provides more information…
2. Like Ana I thought it’s kind of a long clip for a single kanji–maybe have a shorter intro and more time spent on several kanji in your next kanji vid?

Hi Holly-san,

Thank you for the great feedback. We are working on some additional Kanji videos that include brush stroke orders. We hope to have some more news about this feature in the near future.

Thanks,

I’d like to see some more Kanji videos on the more difficult Kanji. It seems that there are lots of videos on the more simpler ones.
