About the Shizuru font
Shizuru is a display typeface designed by Shibuya Font, first released to Google Fonts on December 2020. It ships with 1 weight and is licenced under the SIL Open Font License, which permits commercial use in websites, apps, documents and print without attribution or payment.
Its measured character is a low x-height at 60% of the cap height, normal letter forms and medium stroke contrast. Those three numbers are what the font finder uses to narrow an image down to the closest matches, so you can compare Shizuru against the rest of the library by shape rather than by name.
Want to check whether Shizuru is the face in a screenshot you have? Run it through the free font identifier, or browse the full library of 1,935 open-source fonts for something with a similar feel.
