Entries are submitted via postcard, online, or ballot box, and the kanji character receiving the most votes is selected. A 和尚 at Kyoto's Kiyomizu-dera temple then writes the character to finalise the choice.

We have some voting for word of the year too.
In Russia word of the year was chosen to be "Tpeвoжнocть" (anxiety).

This is influence of the god Veles again. Russians began to massively buy idols of Veles with a bear and worship him and make offerings to him, after which the Russian news reported that the bear population in the Moscow region tripled in year 2025. And now the bear has become the hieroglyph of the year. It's not a coincidence, it's a pattern.

Ukraine word of the year 2024 was
бycифiкaцiя, which means forced mobilization with buses.

I can't find a Kanji for it....
バス動員化
There's no 2025 winner yet.

China's kanji of the year

魔

It's pretty fitting considering all events happened in this year. Even the Nezha movie has already proclaimed itself as 魔.

Look it up in a dictionary, Kanji dictionaries are organised by strokes or radicals, and how the kanji is pronounced is indicated by hirigana.

It should be clarified that in no way I meant to demonize the country as a whole. This year also witnessed many, many kind souls and many awakenings. However, the opposite side is also fully manifesting itself at the same time. Many of such manifestations is directed against the side of light.

Didn't a new game come from your country, "No, I'm not a human"? Well, to be "no longer human", one either goes above, or goes below, despite both appearing extraordinary to those in-between.
