Hello all,

There are three vocabulary entries for kanji 炒, but one of them (炒飯) is missing from the `amalgamation_subject_ids` field through the API.

The ID for 炒飯 is 9275.

Oddly enough all three words are correctly listed in the web interface: [https://www.wanikani.com/kanji/炒](https://www.wanikani.com/kanji/%E7%82%92)

I guess the web UI must be using a different API or collecting this data differently.

@simias Thanks for raising the issue. In order to make the API performant we cache some relationships. The component cache for the subject id 9275 wasn’t updated when it was created. This has now been resolved.
