Really? The first Kanji lessons in my Duolingo are 1 2 3. The second is a few simple Kanji for names.

Tokyo and Kyoto don't show up til the third for me.

They've updated the course a lot since I did my first lesson when they released.

They're memorable for me because I turn off the english pronunciation... so To + Kyo & Kyo + To were the first kanji that I actually learned to read without inferring contextually.
