46 in hiragana, 71 if you include modified symbols (with a " or circle to change the consonant sound). The same in katakana. Plus, I believe they use about 1800 kanji (symbols from Chinese). So, if you don't include combined characters (such as "shi+yo=sho") I would say there are about 1950 characters total in Japanese.
