Kennedy Lehane It is not that the writing system that is difficult. It is the fact that these kanji are no longer used in daily life so people rarely know them. The same thing would happen in other languages as well. There are some words we rarely or never see or use in our lives.

English explanation for non-Japanese speakers: The way of which the game works is one contestant guesses the kanji version of those difficult traditional characters. If the contestant guesses the kanji variant correctly, the last kanji of the previous word becomes the starting kanji of the next. If they do not guess it and the timer runs out, the game ends for that contestant. They keep on going till someone guesses the most kanji. Whoever that is, they win. Hopefully you can better understand now!

I'm Chinese and I've studied English, German, Spanish, and Japanese. Hardest language is Japanese. If you take little kids and have them learn different languages at once, they will take longer and have to study harder to make progress in Japanese than Chinese or any other language. By the time they are reading a Spanish novel, they will still be figuring out elementary school texts in Japanese.

If you want speaking Japanese as Native you should master 2500-3500kanjis. This exceeds the range of 常用漢字 2136 Kanjis This is also applied to Korean and Chinese languages. Korean languages have 常用漢字 1800 Kanjis but you can't understand perfectually Korean as these Kanjis.

Anyways, I recommend turning your computers default language to Japanese. 90% of the translated things are going to be translated into Katakana because your computer doesn't have the context to properly translate it into Kanji. Some games will also be automatically translated, I beat Borderlands 3 fully in Japanese several months which was an interesting experience.
