So I was at the pub with my friend (who has also studied and is a higher level of Japanese than me) and they noticed I was using Anki. He said after 6 years of studying, I should be past the stage of using Anki now and i should just read more to learn new words.
I’d say I’m around an N4 and working towards N3. However, when I was reading a new manga I bought (アオのハコ), I didn’t recognise a lot of the vocab.
Because of these situations I still think Anki is useful, but it got me thinking, have other people stopped using Anki because they felt they got to a certain level where they didn’t need it?
