Most 85mm lenses are pretty good, at least better than me as a photographer.
The M85/2 is a unique offering in that its very small, no bigger than a Pentax 50/1.4.
Despite its flaws (mainly CA), I think it works very well when learned to use right.

Its always way easier to compare numbers, charts and sharpness.
But imho, many lenses are good enough and the rest is really the photographer trying to make the best that he/she has.
The J9 is about as small as the M85.
The problem is the price and quality variations.
As with most Russian lenses vs Jap ones, its down to consistency in most shooting situations (flare tolerance, sharpness, build quality)

I won't suggest the K85 as its too big. The Takumar 85/1.9 also tends towards being bigger (and certainly is heavier ), not to mention the need for an adapter.
A 100/2.8 isn't a bad suggestion, but they won't be as small as the M85/2
