Sans Other Gagu 2 is a very bold, normal width, low contrast, upright, normal x-height font visually similar to 'Dic Sans' by CAST, 'Absolut Pro' by Ingo, 'Norpeth' by The Northern Block, and 'Boulder' by Umka Type (names referenced only for comparison).

A heavy, rounded sans with chunky strokes and gently irregular, wavy outlines that create a lively, hand-cut feel. Counters are compact and often asymmetrical, with soft corners and slightly pinched joins that give letters a sculpted, rubbery mass. The rhythm is energetic rather than mechanical: curves swell and taper subtly, terminals feel blunted, and spacing reads as intentionally loose and bouncy in display settings. Numerals follow the same stout, rounded construction, keeping a consistent, high-impact silhouette.
Well suited for short, high-impact text such as posters, headlines, logo wordmarks, packaging, and playful branding. It can also work for titles on kids’ content, entertainment promos, and social graphics where an expressive, chunky sans is desired.
The tone is bold and humorous, leaning toward a retro, cartoon-adjacent personality. Its uneven, softened geometry feels approachable and mischievous, projecting warmth and immediacy rather than precision or restraint.
The design appears intended to deliver maximum visual weight with a friendly, offbeat voice, using rounded forms and intentional irregularity to stand apart from neutral grotesks. It aims for memorable silhouettes and a buoyant texture that reads quickly at a glance.
Distinctive, sometimes quirky letterforms (notably in bowls and diagonal joins) prioritize character and silhouette over neutrality. The dense black shapes and tight internal spaces suggest it benefits from generous tracking and moderate sizes where counters don’t close up.
