Trivia

[edit]

has, at 29 strokes, the most strokes of any kanji in the jōyō kanji list or kanji kentei level 2.[1] The next highest kanji in the jōyō list is , at 23 strokes.

Prior to the Japanese script reform, this character was handwritten as using 25 strokes, similar to how "令" is often written differently in handwriting. However, after the reform, the character was excluded from the official lists. In 2010, only the print form was included in the new jōyō kanji list, and it is today taught to be written like the print form instead of like .
