I developed this tool to comprehensively explore all aspects of kanji, going beyond mere radicals, in order to uncover connections among different characters. For instance, 風 and 嵐 have distinct radicals, yet they share 9 strokes: a different kanji (覧) with the same kunyomi (らん) as the aforementioned ones.

A component could convey phonetic resonance or semantic significance, or it might be a result of historical transformations and simplifications. This tool strictly examines visual associations, sidestepping intricate deductions that could lead to inaccuracies. It does call attention to:

• Shared kunyomi or matching onyomi + meaning
• Variant forms of radicals

At least two similar sites are worth checking out, these site will gave you more complex result:

• Suiren (hop between compounds) — presently unavailable
• The Kanji Map (similar to this tool, and was there first)

The search term "placeholder" does not have any kanji this tool knows about. It does know all the jouyou kanji and a few more — about 2,500 total. Try the "Random" button to see an example.
