Hi,
     I just noticed after doing my first review session that it does not ask you for the keyword from the Kanji. Is this a dissadvantage or does learning them the other way also somehow inpeded the learning process.
Thanks.

Did you read the introduction to chapter five in the book? This question has also been asked before, use the search button:

I find that if I can get the english keyword from seeing the kanji after standard review, I can remember the kanji almost instantly the next time the keyword appears.

I don't review kanji to keyword though. I wouldn't see the point. And I think it encourages translation. Translation is something you generally want to avoid when studying language.

I was one page turn away from this...if only I had waited a little longer to appease my insatiable curiosity.

Thanks for all the links though, I should have really searched before hand.
