U+30AD "キ" Katakana Letter Ki Unicode Character

Its visual shape is derived from a simplified part of the kanji "几," and it is encoded in the Unicode standard under the block "Katakana," where it follows the same pattern as other katakana characters that form a core part of modern Japanese orthography alongside Hiragana and Kanji.
