“These are excellent flashcards. I'd be hard pressed to find a way to improve upon their elegant, informative design..”
-Tony A. Rowe, Los Angeles

“White Rabbit Press's kanji flashcards are a step ahead. Above and beyond the standard content, you get six example words rather then the usual four, full definitions, and a look-alike box that alerts you to similar characters all too likely to show up in trick questions in exams. As with all the best educational materials, it's clear here that an enormous amount of work has gone into making the learning process as easy and convenient as possible for the student."
-Giles Murray, author of Exploring Japanese Literature

“As the other reviews have said, these are hands down the best kanji cards I've come across. I've seen or used almost all the other cards available.”
-Student at Brown, Rhode Island

“These are the best cards on the market. They are printed on high-quality paper, almost like it is laminated. The corners are rounded so that you don't poke yourself and they don't bend as easily. The ink is high-quality and bold, and they are color-coded for JLPT level. These cards really are well made and simply the best out there.”
-A. Alvarez, Dallas, Texas

“These cards are the best on the market period. White Rabbit Press has an audio companion available on there website. It has the Kanji's On and Kun readings plus all the compounds listed on each card, read by a native Japanese professional voice actress. If your self studying, or just really care about your pronunciation I can't recommend the audio companion enough..”
-Eric C.

“I love these flashcards. They have all the information you need, are small enough to carry around in your pocket, are strong enough to be shuffled like playing cards, and give on and kun readings in kana. I bought a different set of kanji flashcards when I lived in Japan, but they were of much poorer quality and I gave up using them quickly. I would recommend the White Rabbit Press flashcards over all others I've seen. ”
M. Armstrong-Hough

“Just wanted to thank you for making the kanji cards, I used them last year and passed the san kyu test with flying colours.”
-Simon Widdowson

“These cards are a really marvellous tool! In these cards I found all the help I needed to master the basic kanji and the fundamental compounds.”
-Alessandra Gatto

“I had already purchased the 1,000+ Tuttle (Alexander Kask) cards, but I was convinced to try the first set of these. I cannot rave enough:
No romaji. This has helped my reading skills a lot.
The layout makes a lot more sense. The layout on the Tuttle cards is poorly thought through, the kanji stroke orders are on the back, and the radical meanings are on the front, which means that I need to cover parts up if I want to use them as flash cards. The White Rabbit cards have a much more useful layout, making them better as flashcards.
The examples are way more relevant. The Tuttle examples are often so obscure I don't see any reason to learn them. But the examples on the White Rabbit cards are words and phrases I can actually see myself using.
Also, the White Rabbit cards are ordered to fit the JLPT, while the Tuttle cards fit the grade school levels. There are so many different kanji to learn that it's worth giving thought to which ones are important to learn first. For an adult learner, the JLPT ordering will give you more useful kanji first.”
-A. Schrenk
