Japanese font to match copperplate

Question

I need to find a japanese font that matches copperplate in english. would be grateful for any help. Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

If you are looking to match the serifs Mincho would be a good place to start.

It's one of the more traditional Japanese fonts.

Matching fonts between languages is tricky because there are requirements for how characters are used and laid-out.

Answer 2

I could not find a good match, but for those kind of serifs,

I can only suggest this:

though is too curly...

Anyway, if you are interested, the typeface is 優雅宋 Ｓｔｄ Ｗ５ [ゆうがそう] (Yuugasou Std W5) from DynaComWare. I will keep looking for a better match.
