These kanji you may need to look up outside the usual books :

佛侑傳國堯實寶屍崑惠曰曾枷條櫃甥粂粵續聰茉莉蛛蜘蟇裳訣軋轢辿醉鰤 but remember : the point of the exercise is recognition as an aid to reading. Once you are used to "reducing" a text using "Replace" with nothing edits you may want to grab large pieces of text and remove all of the kana and most of the kanji you have mastered and then work down through them, removing what you recognize until you are forced to identify kanji by their features and your own mnemonics.

This is not intended as any criticism of Conning's 2013 Kanji Learner's Course : his 2,300 kanji should be viewed as a selection from the larger 2nd ed. of  Halpern's Kanji Learner's Dictionary. But it is a good indication that something on the order of 3 to even 5 thousand kanji are needed to read literary Japanese with 3000 a likely minimum for literacy beyond the daily news.


ONH kanji not KLC in MFNK


漢字 · かんじ

Aule Kanji Pages · Kanji Recog Pages

These 54 kanji found in Bashō's 奥の細道 or Oku no hosomichi [ONH] are not found in KLC* but can be found in the 2,500 MFNK or "most frequent newspaper kanji" used by jisho.org, edrg and others.  The new Halpern KLD 2nd ed uses a set of 3,000 but on the web perhaps these can be found more readily as the K2500 :
