  1. That’s 493 kanji, not 500. Also, some are duplicated, like 采, and some are simply variants of very common kanji, like 來(kyujitai of 来), or 佛(kyujitai of 仏).

  2. By what metric? According to [this data set](https://scriptin.github.io/kanji-frequency/) (excluding Aozora Bunko), a few of these are well below 2000. Of course the data isn’t the best there is and has some anomalies, for example some like 鵬 and 遼 probably only show up with such high frequencies because of news about China or something like that

    Anyway, 頑岸那 are <1000, 襲痩謎媛鵬汐磐艸湘萌串遼妄 are <1800, and 伎栖嶽茅准倶厘碧礁冨灘樋畠奄壱籠 are <2000), and 342 characters are >2500, with 181 of those at >3000
