Well, some are also actually upside down so it feels random. But, yeah it does seem intentional design. Just a weird one. Especially as anybody who can read is just going to be reading them regardless of being backwards... Lol.

I think it's intentional, it's a mix of made-up kanji, real kanji/hiragana/katakana but set upside down or backwards. I think it's an intentional design to give flavor, without the workload of doing entire localization maybe.

Yeah, a Japanese friend thinks so too. But, I don't want to just toss that horrible word around unknowingly haha.

No idea, this was the trailer from this morning. Looks chill, but definitely doesn't feel like a "Japanese" Konbini- maybe more generic asian konbini feel.
I always wanted to make a Konbini game, so happy it exists.

Yeah very much felt like "were the big shots now, let's throw lots of money and make sure this lands" - I enjoyed being a part of it for what it's worth. But, yeah ultimately the ending makes this event and it all a bit awkward.

Do we think this is just because of footie becoming more popular in recent years? Mitoma/Kubo etc = seek local example to follow. It's great to see ultimately. Sanga has consistently been hitting 10k + for each home game and it's great.

Yeah, I loved that kit and that idea. A bit, on the nose that the ladies was the pink one. But, to be fair it was absolutely the best one lol.

To be fair, none come close to the ladies 2011 home kit. Absolute rocker.

You've got a point there, but the poor home 16/17 kit does not deserve to be anywhere near the Y3 travesty lol.
