Really? There are kanji in articles about Japan? I mean, articles
other than articles about the language or other special cases?
That seems odd to me. I'm not opposed to it, necessarily, but it
seems very odd. I mean, there's no reason to expect that kanji will
be useful to the vast majority of readers.
Can you send some examples?
Murasaki Shikibu
Anime
Princess Mononoke
Neon Genesis Evangelion
Miyazaki Hayao
(and lot more)
In fact majority of Japan-related article have some kanjis.
