Can I eventually leave wanikani and start reading native content?

Studying

I am kinda experiencing analysis paralysis at the moment. I can't decide whether I want to use Wanikani, a basic anki deck (V2k, core 2k, etc.), or something like KKLC.

I know that I could just brute force kanji and vocab and grind some premade anki decks, learn some grammar and start reading visual novels with something like YomiChan to sentence mine and create my own anki deck.

I could also use Wanikani and go the "long route". Wanikani has everything laid out and organized, which I like. I have heard that it is better to learn kanji from Wanikani as well, rather than a vocab deck in anki. If I start using wanikani, can I leave midway and start doing the Yomichan sentence mining method? What I like about anki, is that I can stop using it any time and begin reading, but with Wanikani, I feel pressured to finish it.

Or, I could use KKLC and a premade anki deck, using Bunpro or some other source for grammar.

I am stuck... I have been searching for the "best method" for days. I don't want to start doing something, and find that my progress was useless months later, that is what I am afraid of. What should I do?
