Might want to give [www.dafont.com] http://www.dafont.com/chinacat.font a try. It comes with a 'thin' version as well that just might work out for you.

So, lately I've been thinking I want a sorta, uh, "shaky" text/font for certain situations. So far I've been using Seoge Script/Print for those situations, but it feels a bit unsatisfying, so I'd like to find a new one. Got something like the font used in this picture in mind:

https://e-hentai.org/s/11d544732d/375021-21

But I don't know what that font is called, so... Anyone knows?

While it has its uses, note that Mouth Breather is a bit overused, so it's best not to rely on it too much. There are a number of similar fonts that may look better, such as Twin Marker and CC Wiccan Special.

Mmmhmm. That's why I don't use it often. Wiccan is my favorite since it has that "OH MY GOD YOU'RE KILLING ME!" look to it. Brutal Dude is also good.

Hmm, found Twin Marker, though it's called Marker Twin there, apparently. No sign of Brutal Dude or CC Wiccan though...

Personally I find Komika Text, Display and Tittle to be usable as general comic fonts. For SFX I tend to use the same fonts or something exotic that fits. Japanese don't often use fancy fonts in their comics with exception of SFX (which is often written by hand), so I stick to same principles as in my opinion the most important thing about translations is to catch the same feeling as the original manga.

I had to get Wiccan from a font pack I found, and for Brutal dude... I don't know. But if you want I can post them here. Komika looks something I could only use if all the characters were cute, like with that one I did where the kid was using a magic mirror to molest his classmates.

I liked Chinacat. There are also these fonts that are like a more hand written chinacat that I also like:
[www.dafont.com] http://www.dafont.com/hand-of-sean.font
[www.dafont.com] http://www.dafont.com/complete-in-him.font
[www.dafont.com] http://www.dafont.com/architects-daughter.font
[www.dafont.com] http://www.dafont.com/baqa.font
Also Baqa, Hand of sean and Archtects daughter have all those ´~^ symbols, I guess.

Man, that CCWiccanSpecial really is amazing for hardcore scenes, makes so much of a difference.

Wish I had a font to contribute, I'm just soaking it all up.

Don't worry. All us editors started out the same way. At the very least, I know I did.

I agree on the overusage of Mouthbreather, so I mix it up with other "scratchy" or "yelly" fonts like Hold Your Breath, Edo SZ, or I Want My TTR.

That looks like it could be used as an alternative to MB for a monster's voice or extreme violence. Did I mention Death Rattle? That fits with the ones mentoned too, but looks better if you stretch it.

Does anyone know (or have used) any wild looking font similar to the look of this? I'm most likely gonna end up using geekabyte and some others, but any suggestions would be helpful.
