The problem with kanji is that even nativ japanese speakers have difficulties learning them because they were importet from china and got purely translated into japanese, most kanji lost their original meaning. This is why sometimes a kanji can have really wierd radicals in comparison with his meaning. The second difficult part is that kanji have more than 1 reading, there are allways at least 2 readings for every kanji: on-yomi and kun-yomi; these readings originated from the time when japanese ppl converted the kanji into theire writingsystem, that is why there is a chinese way of reading the kanji and a translated japanese way. There are kanji with meaning those are easy to learn and remember but... the rest has lost their meaning and can only be learnt by memorizing them, wich is bothersome. The only thing that can give you a hind of the general meaning of a kanji are the radicals, they can give you a hint if the kanji is refering to an animal like a fish, a memmal or any other species, they can tell you if the kanji is an action ore a feeling etc. So I suggest that you first learn the radicals before trying to learn kanji and before learning kanji I recomend looking at grammatical structures and the rules of speaking in general
