Kanji are Japanese characters which originally came from China around the 5th century. It's sometimes a headache for JPN learners, but it's extremely useful when you master it. We'll introduce some Kanji (selected by JIC staff) that looks similar. Can you spot the difference?

Japan’s Studio Ghibli Museum is closed temporarily, but staff members are creating video journals with sneak peeks inside the museum. Even when it’s open, this museum is infamously hard to get tickets for, so don’t miss your chance to take a look inside! https://t.co/lzwrjkB0kA

Does the ninja in the video look familiar? He joined us at the Missouri Botanical Gardens Japanese Festival in 2018! This fascinating series from NHK tells all about the life and training of ninja in Japan:

We made this in Japanese Club once too! It’s delicious!
Who’s ready to eat? Today’s #JapanClassroom video from Ochikeron is about how to make #Omurice, Japanese omelette with fried rice and ketchup. It’s a popular dish in Japan, and it’s easy to make, too! Give it a try and show us picture of your omurice! https://t.co/CMOGJTsr04
