Title: Doesn't fit my learning style
Review: I agree with soreloser's assessment. Heisig tries to help you remember the hiragana by providing mnemonic devices (rhymes and visual images). They are hit and miss IMO. I tired of Heisig's method pretty quickly; it became as much work to remember Heisig's mnemonic devices as it was simply to buckle down and memorize the hiragana. His images began to feel like clutter in my brain. I got a copy of "Let's Learn Hiragana" by Yasuko K. Hiragana at the local library and find it much more suitable to my learning style.
