1945
Over 10000
The Kanji symbols are ancient and many are not used any more, though still valid. Therefore, Japanese Government specifies the "General Use Permanent Kanji", comprising 1945 characters, or which 996 are designated as to be learned in elementary school. Any publications using Kanji outside of this list are legally required to print the interpretation alongside the obscure Kanji symbol for clarification.
