Hey guys, I found a really great way to learn both hiragana and katakana. This is great if staring at a piece of paper or writing each one repeatedly isn't working for you. If you're an android user (I have no idea about apple. Death to apple!) then there are some great apps you can use to learn kana. My favorite is Kana Mind. It shows you the kana and you have to choose the corresponding romaji sound. It has a proficiency tracker and can tell you how much you've learned. It also doesn't let you move on until you are proficient in the ones it's teaching you.
Another great app is Kana By Hand. It let's you try to write kana on your device's screen and tells you your accuracy. It shows stroke order as well and will even teach you a few words.
Finally if you are planning to take the JLPT, the app JLPT Words will teach you all the necessary vocabulary for levels 3-5 in kana, kanji, or romaji. You can quiz yourself and there is a dictionary included in the app. If you want a good way to start on or accelerate your Japanese learning, I highly recommend these methods to you. Good luck in your studies everyone.
