I can read kana pretty well, and I immerse myself in the language for about an hour every day while also learning kanjis with RRTK (Recognition RTK Anki deck) that I've downloaded from the unofficial Japanese Refold guide. I'm planning to start working with JP1K after I finish RRTK. Am I doing something wrong?

​

From one side, it makes perfect sense since JP1K doesn't teach you the meanings of the kanjis and only shows the readings and vocabulary.

On the other side, breaking kanjis into primitives seems stupid, because it's very slow, and there are too many of them, and most of them don't really make much sense. Besides that, I'm not a native English speaker and many primitives' translations are too hard for me to understand (unlike kanjis themselves). For example, I totally understand the translations of kanjis for mist, sun, young, refinements, middle, bright, and so on, but when it comes to translations of primitives there are lots of very rare and pretty useless words like augury, divining, ladle, acupuncturist, that I've never seen in my entire life, despite knowing Eglish on the C1 level. Memorizing these words doesn't seem to be very rational.

​

I wanna switch to JP1K, but I'm not sure if it's worth it, because learning kanji readings without meanings seems kinda pointless. So, should I do it or not?
