Hello.
Designing something based on the word 'Onji' and was looking through Japanese fonts wondering what they are associated with.
Some reading I did suggested certain fonts are associated with different activities/businesses etc, so there are fonts often used for sumo or sushi etc (correct?)
I would like to find a neutral font, something like a Japanese equivalent of Helvetica (modern, clean, sans-serif).
Any ideas? (anything in system fonts?)
I don't want to find a font I like then discover later it's normally used by shoe shops or something :-)
Here's one I quite like, just not sure if it's acceptable or not (might be like comic sans in Japan for all I know :-(
Any advice appreciated :-)
Oh also wondered if the Japanese characters are somewhat obscure as some Japanese fonts I downloaded don't seem to have them?
