I hope someone from the forums that knows this well would explain this out here.

For Dummies!? Where are all the pictures?

You'd think that when explaining such a concept someone out there would have a diagram or something.

Kanji chain is like Hesig, but instead of learning the kanjis in heisig order, you learn them in the order of on yomi, with a single story for every on yomi.

I haven't used kanji chains, but from those links it works something like this.

1. Use something like the index from RTK2 to get all the kanji associated with a particular reading. So the first one in the index is ア which has frame 1809 and 1295.
2. Make up a story (the chain) which uses these frames and links to something that reminds you of the sound ア.
3. When you see the frame, you remember the story (chain) which tells you what the pronunciation is.

Kanji chains, kanji town and the movie method all see to me like slightly different ways of doing the same thing. The main idea being to link all the kanji pronounced the same way together.

at the end of the day, all of these are just variants of the good ol' loci system.
