Cards marked with lower numbers will appear more often in the learning queue than those marked with higher numbers. Cards are marked with a number from 1 to 5 (1 being 'unlearned' and 5 being 'learned'). While Anki and Wanikani utilize a long-term SRS approach that can span days, weeks, and years, Brainscape's spaced-repetition system uses a short-term approach. The way Brainscape uses SRS is a little different from other, more popular platforms like Anki and Wanikani. For example, you can easily find decks about Japanese grammar, Japanese vocabulary, or even for kanji. Recently, the website has begun to break down decks by subject and users are able to quickly find Japanese-related content very quickly. Brainscape is a spaced-repetition flashcard system (SRS) that allows users to make and share their own cards and decks with the world.
