Japanese Fonts are typefaces designed to assist the Japanese writing machine, which uses a mixture of kanji, hiragana, katakana, and, once in a while, Latin characters (romaji). These fonts are tailored to represent the difficult strokes, curves, and aesthetic principles of Japanese characters while even retaining clarity and stylistic enchantment.

- Katakana: A syllabary primarily used for foreign words, onomatopoeia, and emphasis. It has a sharp and angular style.
- Latin Characters: Incorporated for bilingual contexts, branding, or global readability.
