Today I learned "ichi" (a line), "ni" (a line and another line), "san" (a line and another line and another line), "no" (spiral), "fu" (cursive capital T, more or less), "ma" (like "a" but squished), "hi" (little person on fire), and the second way to write "a" (the cross from the logo for The Omen, with spiral).

Ichi ni san
Ichi ni san
The first three kana just happen to be
Ichi ni san

I can now make and read two whole manga sound effects. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu... Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa...

When I was little, my mom came back from a trip to Japan with this (to the tune of London Bridge is Falling Down):

Moshi moshi mina-san
Mina-san
