korafoxToday I started in on level 40 of WaniKani. This means that, allowing for the actual ability of my brain to pull information out of memory, I can now read 1,300 kanji. Not all readings for every one, of course, but at least I'd know more or less what a word means even if I hadn't learned that specific usage.
Practice these days involves reading Fullmetal Alchemist manga. I almost wish there weren't furigana, because it takes a concerted effort to read the kanji first and that makes comprehension a little more difficult. But if they weren't there, I would never be able to figure out a lot of the scientific words.
I should also keep up with my playthrough of FF3 in Japanese before I completely lose track of the plot. It can get annoying sometimes because the DS resolution has to use the compressed kanji font and I can't always parse that, though.
