What you can do
- Search by the kanji itself, a component it's built from, its reading (kana or romaji), or its English meaning.
- Filter by stroke count, school grade, gojūon row, or radical — open Filters, no typing needed.
- Watch stroke order drawn one stroke at a time, each in its own color, with optional numbering.
- Find kanji that look visually similar, based on which parts of the canvas their strokes occupy.
- Find kanji that share a component with the one you're viewing, right from its detail panel.
Types of input, with examples
- 火 — the kanji itself, or a component it's a piece of (finds compounds built from it too)
- カ or ひ — a kana reading
- ka or hi — the same readings in romaji
- fire — an English meaning
- Check English meaning only below the search box to search meanings alone, skipping kanji/component/reading matching entirely — a safety valve for the rare case a word you meant as English also happens to match a reading.
This app only has single-character data — typing a multi-kanji word searches just its first character.
