That looks like a very clever method. With mine I'll have to learn the readings separately. But to be clear....that's what did not stick?

I think my failure was more due to me using Anki, then abandoning it rather than anything else. It's a really good system. I tried Heisig for a bit, but KanjiDamage worked a lot better for me. Perhaps if I'd have combined it with something like the goldlist method it would have worked better for me.
