Whoa, I'll check that out. Kanji is definitely my weak point too right now, but you practise writing it enough you'll get it. I find that rote memorisation is a poor technique, so maybe you wanna try something else to change it up! Nothing better than reading/writing/immersion :)
I've got Genki I and II in PDF format if you're interested. I started X in Japanese, but choosing to use Kanji was a bad idea for me too -- I'm so lost! The earlier games are kana only so maybe you wanna start there instead to get a better feel for it?
I also noticed your interest in Korean and Chinese (pretty must East Asian languages haha)...we're basically matching! Though my Chinese is much poorer and Korean is non-existent except for the writing system :(
