Yu Mincho
Mincho (Japanese serif) family developed around Yu Mincho R with the aim of a Mincho that can set period novels in hardcover and paperback books; modern, evenly sized kanji paired with standard kana that keep traditional forms. The bold B and E weights are dedicated headline designs with a tighter skeleton. Original R released 2002; current Pr6N/StdN generation 2016 to 2018. Some weights ship as Windows system fonts.
