Kanji Atlas

An interactive map of every kanji, by grade. Primitives at the bottom, composites at the top — shared components appear once. Hover or click any node to see the web of kanji it's part of. Grade 1 is free; Grades 2–6 and Secondary unlock with Pro.

Deepest decomposition chains

The longest paths through the Atlas show how far a kanji can break down into nested kanji, graphemes, and radicals.

Each layer is one step of composition. A primitive at the bottom is reused by every kanji that contains it — the more edges leaving a node upward, the more load-bearing that primitive is.
