This word contains non-jouyou kanji 常用漢字.

hikigaeru may also be written as 蟇 or 蟾蜍.

kaeru かえる becomes gaeru がえる in this word because of a change in pronunciation called rendaku.

Beware: some kanji that are difficult to handwrite are easy to type on the computer, which may skew the usage statistics.
