The best kanji dictionary out there for people just starting to study Japanese. Much easier to use than formal Japanese kanji dictionaries. It uses a new system of searching for kanji based on radicals and is by far the easiest way I have ever used.

If you happen to look for a kanji under the wrong (but similar) radical there is usually an entry for it that will tell you where to look for the right one.

Excellent study aid and reference book.

The only kanji learner's dictionary you'll ever need. Look up a kanji in less than 10 seconds. Make sure to get the flexi-cover version for quick look-up and durability.
