Yeah, different stuff works for different people. I tried learning vocab before kanji and found it exhausting to remember a different meaning and reading for each kanji in a word in addition to the word itself. But once I just focused on the meaning of each kanji I breezed right through them and now I spend so much less effort learning new vocab.
As for Fellivox's method of learning, that sounds like torture to me. ;p
So that's two nearly opposite methods of learning that we each use but it works for us. You can use our experiences to help find out which method works best for you.
