Interesting! Do you have specific reasons for actively learning kanji, apart from 'making it stick more easily'? It's been a bit of a dream of mine to use Japanese more actively, maybe keep a small Ameblo or something, I just haven't been able to squeeze it in. I don't live in Japan so there's no immediate reward but even for those living in Japan, I wonder how useful it really is nowadays, being able to write kanji by hand?

I'm pretty happy with the rest of my post-N2 routine though: daily reps of 常用漢字 & vocabulary decks, reading & playing games when I feel like it plus the occasional online conversation lesson.
