I agree that the x-ref isn't needed. I wouldn't add one to the 含羞 entry either.

  Comments:
I'm surprised to see the cross-reference return.  If I were using jisho.org, searched for ハニカミ, got this reference, and then saw [see=含羞], this would indicate to me that 含羞 is a *better* way to say "bashfullness". Obviously it is not.

If there were kanji on this term, I would understand "oh, these are two different readings of the same kanji, that's what the [see=] is for".  With the kanji gone, this cross-reference seems to do more harm than good.

That's why I removed [see=] in the original edit.

Maybe we could move [see=] over to the 含羞 entry instead? That will get less-popular-entry pointing at more-popular-entry.  Even there, no one will understand that these terms are related by kanji.

OK. I'll put the xref back.

I think we can drop the kanji form. My IME doesn't bring up it. I don't think 含羞 would ever be used for はにかみ without furigana.
