Jōyō kanji by grade level? - miki76 - 2008-07-14
Hi! I've just started to put in my Heisig cards into Anki and as I was filling in all the blanks I thought it would be a good idea to "tag" what grade level the kanji is learned as well. (That way I can boast that I know as many kanji as a first grader! Just kidding! : ) Anyway, I've been trying to find a list of the jōyō kanji by grade level, but I just can't seem to find one. Does anyone know where I could find said list?

Here it is.
But I would not worry about that. Work hard and soon you'll be able to boast you know as many kanji as an 2nd grader does.

If you look at kanji statistics in anki it'll show you how many kanji from each level you have in your deck and which kanji are missing.

Don't plan on being able to say you know as many kanji as a first grader anytime soon under the heisig method. At over 1700 kanji in I'm still missing 4 first grade kanji, and there's only 80 to begin with, heh. Actually, the percentage for each grade level throughout heisig manages to remain amusingly consistent (or has so far), so you pretty much finish them all at the same time.

Yeah, I'm an affictionated GO player and I only learned the kanjis for go yesterday. Erm, of course I knew them for a while already. Anyway, it was really nice to finally see them in Heisig. And "boku" kanji too.

Ah, to think 5 years ago I needed someone to write that out so I could find a Go parlour somewhere.

I didn't know the kanji for Go, but I knew 竜, not to mention its variant form 龍, which doesn't appear until RTK3. But I imagine a lot of people here learn those early 'cause they're so darn cool. :3
Am I the only one who finds it weird that 龍 and not 竜 appears in the kanji 襲? I think it has to do with 襲 appearing in the Toyo kanji list (the list that was used from 1946 to 1981, which was when the Joyo list was adopted), where neither 龍 nor 竜 appeared, and then when they created the Joyo list, they decided to simplify 龍 into 竜 before adding it... while leaving it unsimplified in 襲 because it was apparently already a Toyo kanji. Yeah, go ahead and only simplify the less complicated character... that makes sense.
