They are ment to represent concave and convex (indent in and expansion out of a given area), that's also what we used in science when I was at school to learn those terms.

This kanji actually appears in a pretty useful word 「#おい 」(おたがい)which means "each other".

Animal kanji may look complicated on the surface, but they are often just: (type of animal) + (pronunciation)

e.g.

キリン is kind of like a deer, so we have:

= 鹿 deer + for the キ sound,

= 鹿 deer + for the リン sound

The other ones also follow the: (type of animal) + (pronunciation) pattern

because it looks like an armless version of , and because it looks deceptively like due to the simplification of most digital fonts. There is one other "weird" kanji that looks like a building or a set of speakers, but I couldn't find it via the kanji index.

That one is very close to what I'm talking about, but it's not exactly the same. I tried to draw the kanji by memory (without knowing it very well) and it seems like my memory has distorted it into a drawing of three buildings.
