[edit] Massive changes
This list is quite useless in its present form. It lists a couple hundred apparently randomly chosen kanji, some of them under incorrect stroke counts. I'm changing the article to focus solely on the Jōyō kanji, since at least that's something of a structure. For reference's sake, the kanji from the original that do not appear in the updated list are 丨, 丶, 丿, 乚, 亅, 岡, 黑, 黃, and 櫻. (黑, however, is just a variant of 黒, which does appear.)
The new list keeps to the order of the Jōyō kanji list; kanji of the same stroke count should appear in the order they do on that page.
The dictionary used in compiling this list is ISBN 4-385-13379-4.
Lastly, some random statistics about the Jōyō kanji:
| Stroke count | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 | 6 | 7 | 8 | 9 | 10 | 11 | 12 | 13 | 14 | 15 | 16 | 17 | 18 | 19 | 20 | 21 | 22 | 23 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Number of kanji | 2 | 12 | 28 | 69 | 93 | 108 | 145 | 185 | 176 | 202 | 196 | 199 | 145 | 107 | 105 | 68 | 34 | 33 | 19 | 10 | 6 | 2 | 1 |
Kanji count: 1945 (thank goodness!)
Average stroke count: 10.34
