Kanji de Go for Yomitan and Anki

Kanji de Go (漢字で Go!) is a fun game quizzing people on rare/exotic kanji terms. In this repository I have scraped the terms from the game with information from the fan wiki for use in Yomitan (formerly Yomichan) and as an Anki deck.

Anki Deck

Download from the latest Github release or from AnkiWeb.

Kanji de Go (漢字で Go!) is a fun game quizzing people on rare/exotic kanji terms. This deck has terms/information sourced from the fan wiki: 漢字で GO!@ウィキ.

The 漢字で GO! Anki deck contains the same information available in the Yomitan Dictionary.

Usage

The Anki deck is split into four subdecks: レベル 05, レベル 06, レベル 07, and 別表記. The first three are the levels in the game, and the last is for alternate readings that were added from the 別表記 that were listed in the wiki. Over 4,000 of the 7,000+ cards in the deck are alternate readings and they might not be as useful to some as they don't show up in the actual 漢字で GO! game. However they still contain many kanji alternate forms that you may enjoy learning.

Features:

• Hover over the image to see the hint image (if available)
• Click on the text version of the term or the reading to copy it to the clipboard.
• Click on the links at the bottom (漢字で GO!@ウィキ and sometimes another site) to view more information.

For reference, according to Kuuube's kanji grid, the three main levels contain 3,353 unique kanji in the main terms. Adding the 別表記 subdeck brings the total up to 5,504 unique kanji.

Limitations

• The source data from the wiki and the 別表記 s are not perfect, so there are some cards where the reading is not fully given or the headword is strange when there exists no unicode character for it.
• The hint images are not cropped perfectly, so you may see some cut-off dots at the top of the images.
• In order to ensure the characters are rendered across all devices, a few fonts are included with the deck: Simsun, Simsun-ExtB, and Noto Sans JP. If you find that card loading speed is an issue on your mobile device, you may in the card styling css remove the @font-face declarations for these fonts, but keep in mind that some characters may no longer render correctly.
