Why do you guys still use another culture's difficult, pointless characters to write a significant part of your language?
Why not just use only kanas like Korea with hangul?
Hell, even China thought about replacing its own characters exclusively with pinyin but there was too much historical baggage. Japan doesn't have that problem though--kanji is a foreign import.
hiragana and katakana are also derived from chinese characters but yes they should just get rid of kanji chinese characters are retarded chinese should be replaced with bopomofo
also, the reason why they haven't change to an alphabet or kana-only script is because of intertia, the same reason why the rest of the languages don't switch to IPA or a featural alphabet
