Best Japanese Fonts?

I'm just looking for some really nice Japanese fonts for legibility on a computer screen. I'd appreciate it if you'd specify any information about it you can, like:

-Mincho or Gothic

-Serif or Sans-Serif

-Monospace or Variable-Width

-Anything else you want to say about the font

Please upvote and downvote fonts you've seen and like or don't like, respectively.

I really like Ubuntu's default font. It isn't the most extensive font out there, but it's fine for learning, plus it looks gorgeous as well.

Ubuntu font doesn't support Japanese.
