    After hiragana and katakana I started to pick up some kanji while learning very basic Japanese on several different websites. I then started heavily using a few online kanji quizzes.

    This link is the main kanji quiz website I used. It had a very plain design but it was efficient and taught lots of kanji. However it is very old... I don't think it is even online anymore? ;_;

    I had already encountered quite a large number of kanji before I ever made made an account on JCJP.

    Then I started using JCJP Practice a LOT (also the lessons a tiny bit). After using this site daily for a few months I had learned all 615 kanji that are currently taught in JCJP's kanji lessons. In total you encounter just over 1000 kanji in all the lessons/practice on here.

    Finally, I started playing a Japanese learning PC game called "Slime Forest Adventure". http://lrnj.com
    SFA teaches 1,945 official "Common Use" kanji. I completed the main part of that game and can now recognise and roughly understand the meaning for 1,972 kanji! ^^

    Now I'm continuing JCJP Practice, which has a nice selection of random vocabulary and kanji words to practice on. And also I'm continuing SFA to finish learning the readings of all the kanji on there.

    If you keep going you'll get there eventually. Just keep doing a bit every day through whatever method you find works best for you. :)

    I'm pretty sure I downloaded the second link but never got to it. Now that I'm trying to get it now, avast is getting in the way :<

    @arjey100, Yeah, I don't know why Avast is behaving like that now. I've had Avast as my sole antivirus program for years. Sometimes antivirus programs are too overcautious leading to false possitives. I've submitted a report several times but nothing happens.

    I've just submitted the demo file to VirusTotal.com, where you can see it's only a few antivirus which are overreacting:

    In the past it was Avira which overreacted about SFA, and Avast is actually recommended on SFA's website. Now it's the other way round! XD

    I would just turn Avast shields off just before clicking the download link. And then after installing SFA can turn the shields back on. It's only the installer which Avast gets jumpy about for no reason, it's perfectly happy with the game itself. ^^

    If you don't want to turn your antivirus off, a better way would be:

    First, create a temporary new folder to download SFA to. Next, go into Avast's settings > "General" page > "Exclusions" > "File Paths". Here, browse for the folder you created and add that, and click OK to confirm the settings.

    Then download SFA to that folder you created. Once it has downloaded, install SFA to desktop or wherever you want.

    Once SFA has finished installing, go back into Avast settings and delete the file path exclusion you made. Done.

    (Or just skip all that hassle and turn the shields off for 60 seconds instead...) ^^
