As everybody and their jaguarundis have already said, it's in no way illegal.
More interestingly, could you give us some more info on your conlang? Is it
similar to Chinese in structure? (If not, it may be hard to write it in hanzi.
Then, the Japanese were evidently not told that.) Does it come with a
conculture (fictional background) that explains why it should be written in
hanzi, or is the writing system simply picked because it looks cool?
