  Wikipedia: Kukai
Saicho, the founder of the Tendai school, was a court favourite however, and these two factors seemed to have contributed to the lack of interest shown by the court in Kukai's return.
Saicho had travelled to China at the same time, and he was also initiated into esoteric Buddhism (by Shun-hsiao), and also returned with esoteric Buddhist texts.
Saicho had already had esoteric officially recognised by the court as an integral part of Tendai, and had already performed the abhisheka, or initiatory ritual, for the court by the time Kukai returned to Japan.

 Tendai History
The son of a pious Buddhist, and probably descended from Chinese immigrants, Saicho was ordained as a priest of the Kegon school in the famous Todai-ji Temple in Nara.
Saicho was senior to Kukai in both age and rank, but the young Kukai, destined to become the father of the Shingon school, was more charismatic and thus probably more likeable than the serious Saicho.
Saicho made his way directly to Mt. T'ien T'ai, and there studied the doctrines and works of Sakyamuni, Nagarjuna and Chih-i, while Kukai went on to study the “esoteric” forms of Buddhism in the city of C’hang-an, eventually returning to Japan to establish the Shingon school of Buddhism.

Although Saicho believed major changes were needed in Japanese Buddhism, he did not use theories on the decline of Buddhism to justify doctrinal innovations, as did some of the founders of the Kamakura schools.

 Jpn. Buddhism-Asuka to Heian
Saicho was an official Japanese emissary to T'ang China and spent two years there studying various teachings including Hua-yen and Zen, but he focused on T'ien-t'ai (the school of Chih-i) and returned to Mount Hiei near the new capital of Japan Kyoto to establish the Japanese Tendai school.
He called for a return to the spirit of practice rather than ritual formalism and the implementation of the 48 bodhisattva precepts rather than the full 250 and 348 precepts of the Vinaya.
Like Saicho, Kukai went to T'ang China to study Buddhism and Chinese culture, but he went in a less official capacity and was therefore freer to pursue his own interests.
