Abstract
In this paper, we report on a kanji animation that we designed for learners for the purpose of "enjoying kanji learning" by reducing the consciousness that "learning kanji is difficult." Compared with other illustrations/movies with a similar purpose, this animation differs in 5 respects: 1. It is a story-based movie; 2. the movie shows not simply a single kanji but is designed as one work; 3. BGM and sound are used effectively; 4. it is not based on the history of the kanji, nor on the meaning of each part; 5. kanji are selected from the point of view of "enjoyment", rather than "necessity of learning."
