    With all of those obscure characters that they keep on adding, you’d think they’d have the decency to have separate sets for japanese and chinese characters. But nope, those are all lumped together into the CJK Unified Ideographs block. Whether a character shows up chinese-style or japanese-style depends on the font.

      I have absolutely no idea about Chinese or Japanese characters, but if they did that there’s probably a technical reason like retro compatibility or something. Unicode has free space left for millions or billions of characters.
