Don't worry, lolita, we all feel the same. I mean, I know some 200ish kanji, and I'm proud of it, but at the same time, I wish that the writing system would be easier. What Akvod said is true in a sense, there are related kanjis that use all the same radical, like

浴びる = to shower
海 = ocean
泳ぐ = to swim

They all use the same radical, which means water, which makes sense

But for every kanji that does make sense, there are sadly two that don't, and that's the hard part, at least for me

Well I think the problem with schools is that they rush things.

Start reading some RAW shonen mangas. They'll have furiganas and you''ll encounter easy kanji. It's just using them or being exposed to them all the time that's necessary, not just memorizing 20 kanjis per week or something.

I think I have pretty much all the easy kanji that are somewhat common memorized, I searched all the vocabulary in my textbook plus searched in Wakan for every kanji I could learn without much hassle to get it already out of the way.

 

Still, I haven't tried to learn new kanji for some time, I lost the habit. I'm not as passionate for Japanese as I once was. Heck, I don't think I'll even take JP classes next semester
