Haha, my list made me laugh.

Kanji - Fails
賠 14
享 12
威 11
秘 11
案 10

The first one I fail constantly because I can never remember which side is which.

享 is high because I used to always write 受 the first time I went through RTK.

The other three, I dunno.  I definitely remember failing 案 a lot my first time through.  Which is funny because I think I could always right it when given the word 案内, just for some reason in my mind I couldn't connect it from keyword to kanji.

I hope your keyword now is あんない or あん内 then!

harhol, how did you extract that list out of Anki?

No extracting, I just went Edit >> Browse Items and sorted them by Ease using the drop down menu at the top right.

For guidance, I just think of a Sat Nav keeping you GLUED to the ROADWAY. Someone else's story I think, but it works for me.

Are sure that works? I have a few hundred with the same ease value, so it's hard to judge the top five from that. Wouldn't it make sense to use lapses? In which case mine would be.

運 5
静 5
責 4
瑠 4
煮 4

I forgot the bottom of 躑 yesterday.

I am a failure sad

I can say that 躑躅 are probably among my most failed kanji as well, frankly because I've never bothered trying to remember the stories I created for them, how often do you need to write 'azalea' anyway?

man that's so small

丹     rust-colored/cinnabar
供     submit
退     retreat
岬     headland
恨     regret/resentment

丹 is number one failure. I often put the dot on the top. Not next time smile

My worst kanji is easily
呼 call: because the right primitive is so weird and rare!

Honorable mentions:
統 overall: Kept mixing it up with 総. Changed the story recently, maybe this will help.
氷 icicle: I keep wanting to write 永
蓄 amass
妬 jealous: I tend to get the sides mixed up.
