You can now create kanji worksheets for Kanken Level Pre-1 and Level 1

We've added Level Pre-1 and Level 1 to the kanji worksheets you can create by Kanken level. You can now select any level from 10 to 1.

Level Pre-1 covers 2,999 characters (863 more than up to Level 2), and Level 1 covers 6,359 characters (an additional 3,360 characters beyond Pre-1). The scope was determined based on the Kanken examination standards (JIS Level 1 for Pre-1, and JIS Levels 1 & 2 for Level 1). Please note that these are not official materials.

Characters outside the Jōyō kanji list are also printed in the same model script as other levels. You can create practice worksheets, as well as reading, writing, and mixed tests.

On the writing test sheets, we've added a note: "Write the answers for the writing section using Level 1/Pre-1 characters (even for words that can also be written with Jōyō kanji)." Words with multiple correct character variants (like 未曾有 and 未曽有) have been excluded from the writing tests to avoid confusion during grading.

Since Level 1 adds a large number of new characters, we've divided the character selection field on the creation screen by the rows of the Gojuon table.

These levels represent a significant increase in the number of characters. If you notice any issues while using them, please let us know via the contact form.
