This is really great! 
Before the A1 and A2 example sentences are made available in decks, I’d just like to suggest renaming them to something like X1 and X2 for “extra”.
Other letters/symbols are fine too, but really it’s to avoid confusion about A1 and A2 referring to CEFR levels of the vocabulary words inside the decks.

Yeah, that was what I first thought of when I saw that, but then I was like, “no that can’t be right!”
Anyway…
Even though I’m still not quite finished with the N5 deck, more vocab is exciting!

Agree completely, I already noticed these “A” entries in the past when searching for certain words on bunpro and they always confused me a bit.
Not only do they look like CEFR entries, they also don’t seem to count in the usual backward order that is used for the other decks, so A1 is the lowest of A decks, right?
Unless there’s a deeper rationale for these A names, I would strongly suggest changing the naming convention. Maybe something containing “N0” so that people understand where those decks sits in the current progression.
Obviously the best solution is just to use 大字 kanji because they look baller: N0-壱, N0-弐, N0-参.

Yeap! I agree about the naming convention being confusing. I thought exactly the same when they were announced.

I think that it would prudent to actually just make A1 - C2 decks at some point, but beyond that
This is something discussed in the community, but it should even more advanced to just miscellaneous.

I bought the lifetime membership only a little ago after already being very happy with the Bunpro team’s service. Thanks so much for adding in more N1 material, currently going through your N2 grammar so everything’s come in perfect timing!

Is this only accessible via /decks ?
Hi!
I’m just curious if there are plans for a 擬態語/擬音語 deck. This could be linked to images or videos to try to convey in the most suitable manner the nuance each word has, like I’ve been trying to do in the Shiritori topic, with the contribution of @TehFlashBang .

I second this. Most of the time I look for Japanese Onomatopoeias, I’ll find a website that will give maybe 20-30 examples, and then tell me to read manga to learn more.
For formal speech, Onomatopoeic words aren’t super important, but like 相槌、they really liven up casual conversation and make things fun. Having a deck dedicated to them so people can pick some up would be super cool to see.

Yeah, really hope there could be a good way to distinguish between them all.
I have seen so many of these onomatopoeia words and get them all confused and basically just guess every time - I’m probably getting worse at knowing which one is which every time I encounter one in the SRS system

It’s great to be able to access the decks!
I’m wondering if there was any particular way of deciding what went in each “A” deck, or was it effectively random?
For example, it seems when looking through that katakana words can appear in any of the decks, but they’re usually in the earlier units 
The order is alphabetical which is why those would appear at the start.
There also isn’t any logic behind what is in A1 versus A20, they are just words. That being said, we started from A1 for making sentences so the lower decks have sentences while higher decks wouldn’t yet.
