Are Kanji and Kana chracter sets?

"Kan" -> Chinese + "ji" -> character


  kana:  (quoted from the American Heritage Dictionary)
    "1. Japanese syllabic writing. The characters are simplified kanji
    and are usually used with kanji primarily to write inflections,
    particles, and function words and to show the pronunciations
    of some kanji and of all foreign words."

So, no, they're not the "character sets" *we* usually refer to
(i.e. euc-jp, shift_jis, etc.)
