All of these kanji are missing from WaniKani but they are part of N1:

No, there are no plans to as far as we are aware.

There are a lot of topics on this…You can read through one if you want to understand why they probably wont

> Probably not the first time a topic like this arises but I really love Wanikani’s way. That is why I would love for them to add all the Joyo/N1 remaining kanji so that I don t have to learn them “the old” (and inefficient) way. I said 5 levels in the title but it can be anything. Post here to support this idea!

The short answer is: they might be part of the N1 test (probably), but they’re so absurdly uncommon that most of the time, the only time you’d ever come across them is while you’re studying for the N1 test. So it’s not really worth the effort.

(And before anyone jumps up and goes “actually, I saw 嗣 in a novel just last week”, yeah, that’s an author’s prerogative. Just like they can use a word like “ichor” when writing an English book if they like.)
