I finished RTK1 not to long ago and decided that I was going to put all the hira and kana on Anki now to keep it permanently in my brain as well as the kanjis are now.

One question though, should I continue to study by showing the romanji then reproducing the kana? Also, should I do this as well for full sentences? English sentence and I produce the kana and kanji for it?

You could do it where you show the hiragana and must write the katakana (and vice versa). On the answer side, you can also have the romaji to show pronunciation.

Never did flash cards for kana, as I've been writing them so much it's almost moot (with exceptions of rarely used katakana).

Good skills to you.

I learned the kanas before doing RTK. But while I did RTK, i basically shutout everything else about the language and anything else that might pull me away from finishing it. So it kind of left stumbling on some kanas here and there.

I think that may be the way to go though. Have a hira then show kata as well as the vice versa cards. Thanks for the idea.

Just use flash cards to brute force them and you can learn them in a couple of hours. I did it for hiragana in one go and then just picked up katakana along the way as encountered it but I still trip up occassionally with that one.

I take it back.

I just went over my hira and found out I know it all. I was only stumbeling on my kata. Think I'll just do a few once overs with all the katas and I think that will solve my problem.

I someone is interested, I'm preparing an Anki deck for hiragana and katakana containing the characters, audio and a gif showing the stroke order. I plan to have it ready tomorrow or the day past tomorrow at most.

It will be something like:

Dictation: Sound => Kana + Stroke order
Recall: Kana + Stroke order => Sound
