[edit] Brush pens
Traditional Japanese calligraphy is done with brush and ink. This is not particularly practical for office or school use. But one can now obtain "brush pens" (筆ペン fude pen?), such as Tombow's Fudenosuke (筆之助?). These pens have a soft, brushlike nib which provides a varying width mark, depending on angle and pressure.
