The Birth of Doujinshi Sans: A Font for Comic Creators
Have you ever been in the middle of a creative project, only to find that the perfect font is just out of reach? I recall a particularly frustrating experience while working on a comic project, searching high and low for a font that captured the playful, handwritten feel I was going for. It was then that I realized: why not create our own? And so, Doujinshi Sans was born – a bold, italic font designed specifically for comic creators, inspired by the world of fan-made comics, or “doujinshi,” in Japanese.
