Mar. 23rd, 2016 05:10 amMom had an appointment w/ Dr. Mattimoe yesterday afternoon, and some shopping to do at Costco afterwards. After getting most of my hiragana written up, I thought I might come with her just to get out of the house, and she offered to drop me off at the Smithhaven Mall, which I agreed to, until her appointment was over.
FYE didn't have Squid Girl or Lucky Star (good thing on the latter, since I already bought that before checking with them before), and only had one disk of Elemental Gelade containing episodes that I haven't even gotten close to. Went up to Barnes & Noble, and started reading volume 1 of Puella Magi Madoka Magica: Homura's Revenge. Didn't actually buy it, and I might just continue from where I left off next time I go there.

Coming off from yesterday's post, I checked out some footage of Mother 1 and 3, and it turns out that even the official Japanese version of M3 uses the same font with things like the opening dateline, names on character panels, and the messages that scroll upward between chapters as in dialogue and menus.
Also, while the last of those former three use kanji, said infodumps themselves are already equivalent to both Mother 1's opening backstory about George and Maria, and what you read in Mother 2 when you have some coffee in Saturn Valley or Tenda Village. In Mother 1, even said opening message lacked kanji, and although this wasn't entirely due to technical limitations, I can kinda understand what kind of challenge one would impose on himself by trying to keep everything small, considering how I've had to increase the maximum dimensions for hiragana from 6x7 to 10x8 in order to display them coherently while creating all those from scratch.
If anything, I just might take some time to create kanji whenever I get around to creating the font for datelines and coffee breaks.
