First, because learning japanese is more than a hobby to me, it's like a investment in the feature. Second, using books is much more confortable than using low quality images.
@SceptileMaster, KyleGoetz: well, I would be very happy If I knew 500 kanji, yes indeed... but I'm not that far  anyway, what book is you are talking about? I mean Yookoso, I didn't find anything close than " Yookoso! Study Japanese language, Kanji; learn about Japanese travel, culture, life, music (JPOP) and more" (from where I got the link to this forum in the first place  )
Well, I can remeber rather quickly new kanji. But I also realized that remebering them is not always what it matters because if I don't use them frequently then I forget them (well I recognize them when reading). This is a problem, even if I buy a book with kanji to learn from, it would be a waste of time. There must be a better solution to this problem.
of course I want to learn as much kanji as possible, but I would try to learn them when I can use them more frequently, that means when I can write text without consulting my text book for nearly every sentence. That's why I wanted to know in the first place, whether Minna no Nihongo 2 is as good as the first one. This question remains unanswered

This is the Yookoso I was talking about
:
Amazon.com: yookoso
The textbook my uni uses.
In my opinion, the best two kanji books are these:
Amazon.com: Kanji ABC: A Systematic Approach to Japanese Characters (0676251819571): Andreas Foerster, Naoko Tamura: Books
Amazon.com: kanji in context
The first is a pretty unique system, and I thought it was good. The other I used in Japan.
