Yeah, that page of tiny text, I just skipped it. I think it might be better to just white out transparent dialogue boxes for now

I am so sorry!!!! Are you able to zoom in? that might help see the text a little better.

It's never too late to change fonts if the one you're using doesn't work.

It's not the font that's the problem, It's the size

I think the main point's just that there's no real reason to keep the JP text legible if it comes at the price of English readability. Ex:

Middle is a lasso+content-aware fill (a photoshop thing you might not have access to), right side is just blurring the JP text so it doesn't interfere with the english text.

Even if you don't have a redrawer, usually lazy smudging like this to reuse the existing text's space is better, because it gives you area to have actual legible text. Better to have some unclean pages that can be read than pristine raws + tiny text.

Yeah unfortunately I'm not using photoshop so i don't have access to those but you're right that I probably could've thought of a better solution. I might change these pages later when I think of a more elegant solution

Ok so far I sort of fixed most of the pages that were a headache to read but this page in particular is causing me an aneurism. I tried doing two different styles to see which one I like more and I hate both of them. whiting out the text just makes it look off and putting the translation on top of the raw text... well that just speaks for itself. I'm kind of forced to keep this page as is for now until I find better solution
