Sans Superellipse Nyji 6 is a very bold, narrow, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Blacky' by Afdalul Zikri, 'Boldine' by Fateh.Lab, 'Neusa Neu' by Inhouse Type, and 'Manual' by TypeUnion (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, compact sans with rounded-rectangle (superellipse) construction throughout. Strokes are thick and uniform, with softly squared corners and minimal modulation, producing a dense, ink-trap-free silhouette. Counters tend to be small and rectangular (notably in B, D, O, P, and 8), and curves are often expressed as squarish bowls rather than circles. The lowercase maintains straightforward, simplified forms; the overall rhythm is tight, with short apertures and sturdy terminals that keep word shapes bold and cohesive.
Best suited for display typography where weight and compactness are advantages: posters, headlines, logos/wordmarks, packaging, and bold promotional graphics. It also fits apparel, sports, and event materials where a sturdy, high-impact tone is desired.
The font reads loud and confident, with a throwback, sign-painting and athletic-poster energy. Its chunky, rounded geometry feels friendly but uncompromising, giving headlines a strong, attention-grabbing presence.
Likely intended as a high-impact display sans that translates rounded-rectangle geometry into a cohesive, compact letterset. The emphasis appears to be on maximum presence, consistent texture, and a distinctive retro-industrial voice rather than delicate detail or text readability.
The design leans on squarish bowls and enclosed counters, which boosts impact but can reduce clarity at smaller sizes or in long passages. Numerals match the same compact, blocky logic and feel well suited to large display settings.
