"Simplified" is a term used in regards to Chinese. What do you mean by "simplified"? The term pretty specifically means "kanji changed by the Chinese government to improve literacy."
If you mean "is a modified form of a previous kanji," then yes, Japanese is simplified. But under this definition, 100% of kanji in use in any country are simplified. Even 日!
But more importantly, why the heck did you feel the need to post this question in a thread that hadn't been touched in
two years?? That's generally considered poor netiquette.
