Author's note

Samurai is a free brush caps font with a bold, Japanese calligraphy mood. The letters sweep and taper like loaded ink strokes, with pointed turns, deep curves, and a hand-cut energy that makes the alphabet feel ceremonial rather than casual.

It fits poster work, restaurant branding, game logos, martial arts flyers, and album packaging where a free font needs dramatic movement instead of polish. Use it for short headlines, title cards, or monograms too - the caps have enough slash and weight contrast to carry a word on their own.
