If you go with Anki and load it up every day, you'll regret ever skipping a day of studying, because you'll suddenly have twice as many cards to review. I went on a two-week trip, and when I came back, 200 kanji had accrued, and it took forever to get caught up again, because these were 200 kanji I was unfamiliar with, and I was in the process of learning them when I went on vacation.

Just do it every day. As a beginner, you may be spending 10–20 minutes is all. Add 10 new kanji a week, then set it to show you, say, 5 new per day. For the first two days, you'll be learning new kanji. The other five days will be constant review. Once you've got around four times the number of kanji in your deck as you are learning per week, you'll really feel like you're permanently learning instead of just re-learning the same 10 kanji every day.
