Why are some people in the Japanese self learning community so down on Heisig?

Thank you both for the kind words. Just for the record, I am a she-dolly, not a he-dolly.

We made our Sound Sisters Kanji readings Anki deck pink 'cause we like it, but also because the color seemed bright enough to be zingy without being glarey and tiring. Kind of like RawrPk-san said.

Always nice to meet a fellow Shirokuma fan(˘◊˘)/
