Thank you. I don't have anything to add to this.

The thing is Kanji calligraphy is an art and you can't find a font for that. So you can't take an off-the-shelf approach. Finding a decent artist is good. Have them morph the character into something that looks more artistic. Don't just copy and paste a font off a computer printout.
