Hehehe, never thought I would admit it but that is literally my drawing for the character 才 I made when I was learning new characters at the time! :DDD I'm so happy to see one of my more older drawings here so props to you guys for adding it in👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻 (P.S, btw, I think the interpretation I drew here is suppose to be a dancer since dancers have skill and talent to dance :P)

Am I mistaken in assuming that this character is related to the katakana character for "o"? If it is related why?

[@agodawg]

I am mistaken apparently, but they are just so very similar. Fun set of false cognates!

[@NoCareBearsGiven]

Katakana is derived from Chinese components so it’s not that surprising the characters will resemble certain Chinese characters
