Simple question. Can you read Japanese? (Note that this question excludes speaking or writing)
The use of dictionaries is obviously ok (like, looking up Kanji by radicals is a science in itself, so that counts as part of reading too).
Feel free to post what you voted, especially those that voted "Somewhat" or above.

I struggle with Kanji. But it's actually pretty easy looking most of them up based on radicals.I takes patience... and some Kanji are just ridiculous or hard to decipher.

I have hiragana and katakana well memorized. Though my reading speed is still slow.
And I can instantly recognize a few kanjis, such as 猫,　å…, ç§,　一,　二,　三,　四,　円.
That's about it.

It doesn't take any patience if you like working with foreign languages.

I know a guy who really freaked out when I showed him the look up by radicals method :D He takes Jap classes, btw...
For me it takes patience when I can't find the single one radical I've been missing. Usually the radicals with a high stroke count, but then again, I've only been using this method since Dec 09.
