Wow, thanks for this very detailed guide!
However, there's still a question lingering in my mind:

2) I've read quite a lot about RTK, and it seems to be an astonishing method for the vast amount of people... but isn't it contraproductive to associate the Kanji to English definitions/pronunciation if you want to go that far into Japanese? I see that it might be more efficient than repetition, but won't sheer repitition pay off later on? (Talking about all RTK volumes here, not just understanding the English meaning in RTK)
