ALL differences b/w Kanji & Chinese (google docs)
I spent 5 days analysing every difference b/w the simplification of Chinese characters and Japanese Kanji 漢字. I did it by comparing Simplified Chinese Hanzi (简体字) & Simplified Japanese (Shinjitai 新字体) to Traditional Chinese (繁體字) used in China, which may be a little different from Traditional Japanese (Kyūjitai 舊字體), but I thought it was negligible enough to ignore. They are all put into separate categories based on the patterns of simplification.
The slides above are just 8 examples of the 39-page document, so feel free to check it out
