The current Japanese writing systems of kana and kanji is largely influenced by Chinese characters.
The kana themselves are derived from certain key Chinese characters, while kanji (literally means "Chinese/Han characters") are partially unmodified from Chinese characters (but that may change in a matter of time).
The Japanese writing system, known as kanji, is based on Chinese characters. Kanji are adopted characters from Chinese writing, with each character representing a word or concept. In addition to kanji, the Japanese writing system also includes hiragana and katakana, which are syllabic scripts.

The Japanese writing system is based on Chinese writing, and is typologically an ideographic system with elements of a syllabic system. The art of Japanese writing is called calligraphy. To be precise, modern Japanese is written using three writing systems: 1. Kanji (Chinese characters) are ideographic and stand for whole words or morphemes on their own. 2. Hiragana (syllabic characters, or a syllabary similar to an alphabet) is used to spell out Kanji in pronounceable syllables, if needed, or to spell out the endings and inflections and particles used to build sentences. 3. Katakana (a second syllabary similar to hiragana) is used to spell out foreign words or in advertising; it's function is similar to italics in English. Japanese also has an official romanization called Romaji, which is a system for spelling Japanese using Roman (Latin) letters. Kana
The early Japanese writing system was heavily influenced by Chinese characters, known as kanji. Over time, the Japanese developed two phonetic scripts, hiragana and katakana, to supplement kanji. This combination of characters allowed for more flexible and expressive writing.
