しあわせ

Another interesting set of handwritten 2byte fonts with what seems to be a full set of kanji.
Its available in 8 various weights and styles. The site, Sana’s Original Font Box however is written in Japanese.

This can be useful for making practice sheets of kanji.
It is a font made by Tim Eyre showing as the title says the stroke orders in kanji. This link is to his home page from where you can download the font.

I think this means Aoyagi mountain font. Its a full kanji font in a fluid dry brushed style. (Well maybe not every kanji but a large amount of them.) Not an everyday font but in the right circumstances would look good. No idea what the terms of use are; again its a completely Japanese site. But from what I can make out its free 無料 and presented to the public 公開. Available in OpenType and Windows TrueType.

A design group that makes many fonts for free download, mainly katakana display faces but there is one kanji font albeit without the full range of glyphs. The display fonts show just how difficult a language can be to read in unfamiliar fonts.

The kana display fonts are directly mapped to keys; therefore you type the characters directly rather than using Kotoeri input (or the IME in Windows). Leaving your keyboard in romaji input, select the font as AL (Roman characters) HA (Hiragana glyphs) or KT (Katakana glyphs) then type away.

This is one time a Japanese keyboard is really useful as the kana glyphs are printed on the keys.

This is the layout of the keyboard I have.
An Apple Japanese wireless keyboard.

The underlying keyboard layout is the US keyboard.

Unfortunately the voiced characters using ゛and ゜are found using the shift key so a bit of guesswork is needed to find them especially for あいうえお and the ま row.

Mikachan, a Japanese woman, has produced this font of thousands of handwritten characters and posted it for anyone to use. And you thought the 100 or so characters in a roman font was hard work.
The site is in Japanese, so the link to downloads is the fourth button from the top on the left, marked だうんるーど（downloads)
