What if you change the font size in chat settings to size 10? For me they match as expected when the font is set to 10.

According to duplicate reports, the bug only seems to happen in Japanese

Noto Sans set at lowest font size still is huge after this update. and it wasn't so before. so that's not the case..

(Not to mention MCPE-151635 forces Windows 10 & Switch players to use Noto Sans, so you can't escape this issue.)
