What the title says basically: this shows similar kanji’s (with links) for the given kanji on its page. There are two sets of kanji used, one for similarities based on radicals and one for community defined similarities. The visibility can be toggled for both grups. koichi said…oh hey, this is coo…

I’m happy the WK stuff decided to implement this, and I also don’t wanna take away @anon20839864 's job, so won’t update this any further, ごめん :slight_smile:

Oh, I see. *sad* (But yours were so handy right at the top. I like your placement better… Also the other comments I said a month ago remain true too.) I’ll have to find Kristen’s thread…but wait!

I am getting : “Something unexpected happened while trying to load similar kanji. ごめんなさい。” Is it just me?

I get the same message and have removed the script. (See tomboy’s response a few response above above. He might have disabled it.) I also contacted Tofugu and heard back that no one is monitoring this thread - if you have similar kanji that is not represented in the WK similar kanji list, drop a no…

I prefer the placement of the Visually Similar Kanji section in tomboy’s script to WaniKani’s placement since it makes it quite hard to actually compare a Kanji to its similar Kanji.
