I understand that this question is highly subjective, but I find that I have a few 'go-to' Japanese fonts which I really like the look of. I find others horrible to look at (Mincho fonts in particular). So I was wondering if there are some types of fonts which people seem to prefer aesthetically.
My current favorites are Yu Gothic Light and HG Kyokasho (see below).
I must say, I never expected to find something like this:
Japanese seal script font with kana! This will be my new favourite aesthetic for a long time.
