Having said that, it's a frankly terrible font if you need it to actually be READABLE by a Japanese speaker. I don't think the person who made it cared at all about legibility, it's supposed to be "cool" but in fact it just looks weird (if you're used to Japanese typography)

If that doesn't matter for your purpose, no problem of course!
Thanks again. It doesn't really matter if it is a bad font for a Japanese speaker, but it would be nice if it was legible.

Does the top font above (the slightly geometric one) look any better?

I once spent a week workinh in Tokyo, loved every minute of it, wish I had more time there.
