Ex Kata Damaged Font

Ex Kata Damaged font by Vic Fieger is a free Japanese-style decorative typeface with a rough, splintered energy. The strokes feel like they were hacked out with a dry brush and then eroded, leaving chipped edges and tiny holes of “missing ink” that give each character a gritty, lived-in texture. It reads like signage from a back-alley dojo in a storm-raw, urgent, and a little dangerous.

Using Ex Kata Damaged, your titles snap on horror posters, manga covers, underground flyers, band logos, game interfaces, and edgy restaurant branding. The irregular rhythm keeps the eye moving, so short phrases and logos hit hardest, especially at large sizes. Pair this free font with a clean geometric sans for body copy to keep the chaos focused and legible.
