Thanks vunderba, that's a good point about the time and that's a better comment than the parent one.

The mnemonics really were the main feature driving me away from existing resources and to make my own.

On the questions: I am not an expert, but I didn't make anything up. All data is picked from dictionaries like JMDict/jisho.org. The layout and choosing which information to display how I found best was according to my studies.

On 部首: They're highlighted for each Kanji (back side) and annotated on the bottom right in the full form, but there are no individual cards for radicals.

All in all, the deck features and what makes it different is better described by the guide that I link in the post (which, while interesting, is better suited for the audience which cares about Kanji).

The post itself focused on the building and business part which I think is well-suited for the HN crowd.

Anyway, thanks.

I've put weeks of effort on the post and months on the project. I think it's worthy of being in HN and the votes so far seem to imply the same. I have been improving the title and posting at the time period HN allows. It's not a repost in the sense that it hasn't gained any attention. It just hasn't reached a critical enough mass. What does it mean to you? If you think the post is just not high quality perhaps you can comment on that, rather than the number of times it has been posted.

I think Anki, originally, was for studying Japanese too.

And I recently wrote about making my own Anki Japanese cards in my blog[1]

I am under the impression that this is fine considering none of them have gotten any attention at all. I'm confident that this is material Hackers will find interesting, so I'm not giving up at the first try.

Thanks. That's a good point.
