Note: The video’s subtitles and description were produced with a translation tool. Accuracy may not be perfect—thanks for your understanding. How was the video? This time, in “Episode 8: Introducing Left-Right-Mirrored Kanji (Part 1),” we explained kanji that are mirrored left to right, while citing primary references. Presenting lots of citations can feel a bit stiff to me personally, but I made this because I wanted viewers to see that these forms really have existed since long ago. Some parts may be difficult, but I hope it helps you take a step toward feeling that “the world of kanji is fascinating!” Thank you for watching!
