I feel the exact opposite. I think that the mixing of kana and kanji
are very esthetically pleasing. Pure kanji look too "heavy", while pure
kana looks too "light".
Slightly OT: I found a Japanese-English New Testament. The mixing of
systems is especially obvious when you look at things like the genealogy
of Jesus. That page is filled with katakana for all the foreign names,
and thus is, at a glance, very distinct from other pages.
