i ' m ready to start reading tile values and converting them to japanese text . at first glance it would appear there are two lines of text in pokémon but there ' s actually four . two lines are used to display the japanese characters and two lines are used to display the dakuten ( dots above japanese characters a . k . a voiced ) and handakuten ( circles above japanese characters a . k . a half - voiced ) when in rendaku ( voiced characters ) form . take a look at the image below to see how this works .

japanese animation , also known as anime ( pronounced
ani - may
) , is a popular form of animation in japan which is quickly spreading in the u . s . the major difference between anime and american cartoons is that unlike american cartoons , which are only watched by children , anime is popular among the japanese adults and is watched by millions . the audience is not merely directed to children but to teens and adults as well . the same applies to japanese comics known as manga .
after atom defeated blacktop , in the scene when max re - painted atom ' s name , it is shown that noisy boy was being re - built by charlie in the background .
i stopped learning japanese last weekend just long enough to work on an idea i ' ve had in mind for a couple of years . i enjoy playing through japanese games as source of study material but dictionary lookups can be a little time consuming . i wanted an application that could read text from a game and provide a means of instant dictionary lookup .
the boy answered reporters ' questions about his condition , saying

where did all these cartoons come from ? to find the answer one must look no further than in japan , the birthplace of japanese animation , the main source for all of this madness .
when tezuka made a name for himself in the industry , he managed to establish his own production company in 1962 . he formed mushi productions , where he released his best work , astro boy . with astro boy , many recognized tezuka ' s original style and approach that was new to the entire industry . the style of his illustrations and characters came from french and german cinema . his characters exploded with life and emotion , and his stories would unfold themselves on hundreds of pages . by 1963 , astro boy crossed international borders and was premiered on nbc stations all over the us and was still successful with american audiences .

ray parker , jr . got his groove on in the music video for his classic ghostbusters theme song . but it”s nothing like the way the quartet of comediennes dance their hearts out in the newly released japanese version of the song .
around 1998 , i came across cartoon network , and i started seeing more anime . i watched more sailor moon , as well as robotech , voltron , ronin wariors , and many others . then i did some research on the internet and learned more about anime , the different types of anime , and some terms used in the japanese pop culture . along with that , i also learned about manga and realized that many anime start out as japanese comics before they become animated features .
1951 - osamu tezuka created the milestone manga , tetsuwan atom or astro boy , as it was known in the us . as a result , years later he became a pioneer in anime , and was the man responsible for the success of anime and manga worldwide .
for the wrb belt in 2016 and lost by luck . he had a wrb record of 15 - 1 . his only wrb loss was to rubicon in 2016 which was a close match up until the third round where rubicon got lucky with an uppercut that knocked out noisy boy .
in order to understand anime and its invasion into the us , a look into its history would be most appropriate . the best place to start is around world war ii , since that was the time when the anime and manga ( japanese comics ) industry evolved significantly .
once this was all working i started working on filling my tile number to japanese character map . thankfully the pokémon games don ' t use any kanji apart from 円 for the money so i didn ' t have to spend too long getting all the characters and symbols in .
this figure features basic articulation in the shoulders , elbows , knees , ankles and hips . as is the main gimmick of the basic action figures , when his head is pushed down , he lights up . in noisy boy ' s case , the light is red , matching his glow color in the film .
during world war ii the entire japanese nation was mobilized . the people were forced to conform to the government ' s demands or pay the ultimate price . according to frederik schodt ' s book , manga manga : the world of japanese comics , those who failed to cooperate were punished by
preventive detention , bans on writing , and social ostracism , while those who recanted were rewarded with rehabilitation programs and support from the community . . . artists who had spent most of their lives criticizing the government did an about - face and offered wholehearted support to the militarists
( schodt , 55 ) .
3 . kubo’s stories concern his heroic samurai father , hanzo . here , hanzo fights a paper - spewing chicken , a figure based on the basan , a fire - breathing creature from japanese folk tales . both of these origami characters are puppets and are not made of paper because it would deteriorate quickly under an animator’s hand .

there was a random little boy just standing behind it . weirded out man . . . i guess some people forgot to cut the old sentai footage alot better back then . . . kinda makes me wonder what the story was in the old japanese sentai version of the show was all about , and if the kid was supposed to be there or if he was just some kid who stumbled in the scene , and then had his face melted off by rita ' s magic blast .
some of the earliest japanese immigration to lands that would later become part of the united states was illegal . in 1868 , the hawaiian consul general secretly hired and transported 148 contract laborers to hawaii , although they were eventually discovered and returned . beginning in the 1880s , however , legal barriers to emigration began to drop , and major emigration soon followed . the japanese government showed significant interest in the process , often selecting emigrants from a pool of applicants , favoring ambitious young men with good connections . many prospective emigrants enlisted the support of prominent citizens to underwrite their expensive journey to the u . s . at first , most emigrants planned to return home eventually , and saw their sojourn as a quick path to wealth and respectability .
by the time of the trinity test , the allied powers had already defeated germany in europe . japan , however , vowed to fight to the bitter end in the pacific , despite clear indications ( as early as 1944 ) that they had little chance of winning . in fact , between mid - april 1945 ( when president harry truman took office ) and mid - july , japanese forces inflicted allied casualties totaling nearly half those suffered in three full years of war in the pacific , proving that japan had become even more deadly when faced with defeat . in late july , japan’s militarist government rejected the allied demand for surrender put forth in the potsdam declaration , which threatened the japanese with “prompt and utter destruction” if they refused .
since 1639 , japan had maintained an official policy of isolation from europe and most of its colonies , and emigration was strictly controlled . however , in the years that followed perry ' s arrival , japan underwent a tremendous social transformation , and for many japanese the u . s . increasingly became a model not only of modern military might , but also of a desirable way of life .
at noon on august 15 , 1945 ( japanese time ) , emperor hirohito announced his country’s surrender in a radio broadcast . the news spread quickly , and “victory in japan” or “v - j day” celebrations broke out across the united states and other allied nations . the formal surrender agreement was signed on september 2 , aboard the u . s . battleship missouri , anchored in tokyo bay .
he was a g2 at his time because he used a remote . but when he got the voice command from the brazilian people that handled noisy , he somewhat became a part of the current generation 3 . this also implies that his last controller was brazillian . however , his voice command was set to japanese when charlie got him . this challenges the theory of his last owner being brazillian .
after the meiji restoration in 1868 , japan ' s rapid urbanization and industrialization brought about great social disruption and agricultural decline . as farmers were forced to leave their land , and workers were left jobless by foreign competition , they looked more and more for a better life outside the islands of their homeland . as japanese wages plummeted , and word of a booming u . s . economy spread , the lure of the united states became difficult to resist .
back in japan , after world war ii , a young aspiring artist named osamu tezuka became a cartoonist and released his first work shintakarajima ( known in english as
new treasure island
) . as a child , tezuka was a fanatical fan of walt disney ' s early animations . many were impressed by tezuka ' s original style . however , it was not until tezuka released his ultimate work tetsuwan atomu ( astro boy ) that he achieved success ; he was pronounced
the father of manga and anime
.
after the success of astro boy , tezuka released another work , jungle taitei ( kimba the white lion ) . there was much controversy in the past about this anime after disney released a similar version with the movie the lion king with simba as the main character . although disney denies this , many believe that disney stole the anime and recreated it with their own version .

first things first , i needed some way of communicating with bgb , my gameboy emulator of choice . i ' d recently read though where the author wanted to display the japanese game text by the side of the english game on snes games . he had looked into the possibility of communication via scriptable emulators but without much luck and had decided to read the memory of the emulator instead . as i ' d seen seen evidence that this approach could work i decided to go down this route .
these ladies had fun with this music video . also they dared to actually sing the word “ghostbusters” – repeatedly – something neither parker nor the members of fall out boy do , though elliott raps the word once ( a chorus shouts out the response to “who you gonna call ? ” in english - language both versions ) . parker has said that “it”s hard to write a song where your main objective is to use the word ‘ghostbusters . ”” difficult to write , or difficult to let go of the cool and sing that admittedly goofy word ?
though i hardly found any japanese animation in the states i continued to watch my arabic translated anime since we owned a sony vcr brought from saudi arabia . on occasion when my father would travel , i would give him a list of anime that i wanted and he would get it for me . of course , many of these tapes were under different titles than the original anime from japan . among the arabic anime i have seen are mazinger , grandizer , metal man ( al - rajul al - hadidy ) , sandibell , sally ( the little princess ) , lady , captain majid , captain thabit , ninja , al - darba al - sa iqa , al - ramyatul multahiba , and many more . for many of you otakus out there , you may not recognize these titles . unfortunately , i do not know the original japanese title they were under . however , those of you familiar with arabic anime may recognize some of these titles . anyhow , that was my source of anime but it still was not enough for me . i knew there had to be anime here is the states , i just did not know where to look .
noisy boy ' s fighting style is built off of pre - programed professional moves that are plenty powerful . unfortunately , the moves can be intercepted because they can ' t change , but the sheer amount of pre made combos and the creation of new combo ' s via basic commands can compensate for said weakness . he is designed to fight in the wrb league , so he is very vulnerable to illegal moves . due to being controlled by voice command coupled with many pre - set moves , he cannot directly react to the moves of his opponent and does not respond to moves he is not programmed to recognize .
hiroshima , a manufacturing center of some 350 , 000 people located about 500 miles from tokyo , was selected as the first target . after arriving at the u . s . base on the pacific island of tinian , the more than 9 , 000 - pound uranium - 235 bomb was loaded aboard a modified b - 29 bomber christened enola gay ( after the mother of its pilot , colonel paul tibbets ) . the plane dropped the bomb–known as “little boy”–by parachute at 8 : 15 in the morning , and it exploded 2 , 000 feet above hiroshima in a blast equal to 12 - 15 , 000 tons of tnt , destroying five square miles of the city .
japanese immigrants began their journey to the united states in search of peace and prosperity , leaving an unstable homeland for a life of hard work and the chance to provide a better future for their children . however , before the first generation of immigrants could enjoy the fruits of their labor , they had to overcome hostile neighbors , harsh working conditions , and repeated legislative attacks on their very presence in the country . acceptance came only after the immigrants and their children were forced to endure one of the 20th century ' s worst crimes against civil liberties , and from that crucible fought to claim their place in the life of the nation .
i searched for the array of bytes again a few times . it moved from 0237ddc1 to 0240ddc1 to 023fddc1 . interestingly the last two byes remain the same which i didn ' t expect . i checked bgb ' s vram viewer again and found that the array of bytes i was searching for starts from 9dc1 in the virtualised game boy ' s memory . i guess the developer of bgb has kept the last part dc1 aligned to memory in the same way ( by the way , this is why i went with the first address and not the second ) . i can certainly see how it would be faster instead of mapping onto offset memory values requiring an additional calculation on every access .
on august 6 , 1945 , during world war ii ( 1939 - 45 ) , an american b - 29 bomber dropped the world’s first deployed atomic bomb over the japanese city of hiroshima . the explosion wiped out 90 percent of the city and immediately killed 80 , 000 people ; tens of thousands more would later die of radiation exposure . three days later , a second b - 29 dropped another a - bomb on nagasaki , killing an estimated 40 , 000 people . japan’s emperor hirohito announced his country’s unconditional surrender in world war ii in a radio address on august 15 , citing the devastating power of “a new and most cruel bomb . ”
hiroshima’s devastation failed to elicit immediate japanese surrender , however , and on august 9 major charles sweeney flew another b - 29 bomber , bockscar , from tinian . thick clouds over the primary target , the city of kokura , drove sweeney to a secondary target , nagasaki , where the plutonium bomb “fat man” was dropped at 11 : 02 that morning . more powerful than the one used at hiroshima , the bomb weighed nearly 10 , 000 pounds and was built to produce a 22 - kiloton blast . the topography of nagasaki , which was nestled in narrow valleys between mountains , reduced the bomb’s effect , limiting the destruction to 2 . 6 square miles .
after a bit of thought i came up with the idea of looking for one of the background map areas in the gameboy ' s vram ( video ram ) . these define which tiled graphics are used to draw a background to the screen by referencing areas of the gameboy ' s character ram which is where the tiled graphic data is stored . once discovered the idea was then to read an array of bytes and map the values of the bytes to japanese characters . this approach will only work providing the tile data always stays in the same place though i ' m guessing this will be the case as it would be more bother for the developers to keep moving it around .
the largest pane in bgb ' s debugger window shows all of the game boy ' s memory but is focused on a particular area of interest starting at 9d80 , placing it somewhere with the second background map memory area 9c00 - 9fff . i ' ve highlighted the first byte 79 . this is a reference to the address of a tile stored in the character ( tile ) memory area which ranges from 8000 - 97ff . in this case 79 references memory address 9790 . i carried on looking down the list and saw how this same code was also responsible for the picture of professor oak currently on my screen which really confirmed my initial assumption that i ' d found part of a routine for populating the screen from the background map .
the first idea i had for finding the japanese text currently displayed on the screen was to look for some kind of unique identifier for the current line , and then reading it from the rom after having loaded the whole rom into memory . this is the same technique that is used in the article i previously mentioned . the downside of this is that any placeholders e . g . for a player name , location , character name and so on would be missing and i had decided pokémon was a good candidate game for my application but didn ' t want text that read

in 1853 , commodore matthew perry of the united states navy sailed gunships into tokyo harbor , forcing a reclusive nation to open itself up to trade with the u . s . , and incidentally providing the people of japan with an unprecedented glimpse of an alien culture .
between 1886 and 1911 , more than 400 , 000 men and women left japan for the u . s . and u . s . - controlled lands , and significant emigration continued for at least a decade beyond that . the two most popular destinations were the archipelago of hawaii and america ' s pacific coast . in both places , the immigrants would discover a new and radically different way of life , but the two destinations each responded to , and were shaped by , the newcomers in a unique and distinctive way .

with the gameboy ( and with many consoles of the era ) there is no such thing as
text
, there are only tiled graphics so any text you see on the screen is merely a series of tiled graphics strung together . for this reason the gameboy can ' t print
hi
, instead it is told to display two tiles on the screen at a given location and those two tiles contain an image of
h
and
i
characters . the tiles are 8x8 pixels and to the best of my knowledge , most games that deal with a lot of text typically store a single alphanumeric character in a single 8x8 tile . i imagine it would get very messy otherwise . anyway , let ' s take a look at the image below for some clarification .
in bgb ' s vram viewer window ( pictured above ) you can see all of the tiles held in the character area of the gameboy ' s vram ( memory area 8000 - 97ff ) . some of these will be used to display what is currently drawn to the screen . in this instance you can see that each hiragana and katakana character , including numerals and special characters , has been loaded into vram and occupies a single tile . the fact that the whole character set is present in vram is good news as it means they are likely static and don ' t move around throughout the game . not all games work this way however but my idea relies on them staying in the same place so that when i read the reference to tile number b1 ( pictured above ) in the gameboy ' s background map i can safely assume it is an あ and not some other character . apart from being reasonably text heavy this is another reason that pokémon was a good choice .
i ' m going to show you what one of the gameboy ' s background maps actually looks like . there are two and they are nothing more than defined areas of vram . they start at one address and end at another . according to this gameboy memory map they exist at 9800 - 9bff ( background map data area 1 ) and 9c00 - 9fff ( background map data area 2 ) . using bgb ' s debugger we can easily find them .
up until now we ' ve been using bgb ' s tools to look at the memory of virtualised gameboy hardware but our application won ' t have access to these tools . it will need to look inside bgb ' s allocated memory area inside our computers ram to find the virtualised gameboy memory areas we are interested in .
we will need another tool to enable us to search inside bgb ' s allocated memory . initially i used ollydbg but switched to cheat engine as i found it a little easier to work with despite it not really being built for this task . with the game open in cheat engine i needed something to search for . the text はじめまして！ was currently shown in the game and by using bgb ' s vram viewer we can work out this will be stored as tiles ca , bc , d2 , cf , bc , c3 , and e7 ( the bc tile is used for both じ and し but more on this later ) and should appear in this order somewhere inside the virtual gameboy ' s background memory , which is somewhere inside bgb ' s allocated memory . now we can start looking for an address to use in our application that will take us straight to the background map memory area within bgb ' s allocated memory .
as you can see in the picture above i found two address where the array of bytes i was searching for exists . at first i thought this might be the echo area of ram . the gameboy has an area of ram you ' re not supposed to use that just echos the content in c000 - ddff . however , the background maps aren ' t stored in that range so i ' ve no idea what the second address is for , but it seems to contain a full copy of the background map .
i decided to go with the first address ( for a reason i ' ll explain later ) so now i want to try something , i close bgb , start it back up again , same game , same point in the game , check 0237ddcc1 and i don ' t see ca bc d2 cf bc c3 e7 anymore . not really surprising as every time a program starts it is allocated a different range of memory to run with .
handy as it is that the last part is always ddc1 , i now need a way to get the whole address . i decided to see when this area of code was being accessed and attached cheat engine ' s debugger to bgb ' s process . using
find out what accesses this address
. i threw up a couple of instructions and the first looked quite interesting . i could see that at some point register eax held the address where my array of bytes started from and that this address had been moved from register ebp into eax . i hit the
show disassembler
button to find out more .
the disassembler shows that the value in register ebp had been created by adding registers ax + edi together . i decided to toggle a breakpoint on mov eax , ebp which was just after the lea ebp , [ eax + edi ] instruction so i could take a look at the values of the registers eax and edi prior to eax being modified .
as you can see in the image above . eax contains 0241c000 , edi contains 00001dc9 and the result of the two added together , 0241ddc9 was in ebp . as i ran the code i saw eax remained the same and edi was incremented by one . this was probably part of a routine for drawing a background map to the screen .
after seeing how the address i was interested in was comprised of two addresses being added together , the first of which wasn ' t as i ran through it i decided i ' d search for an array of bytes containing 0241c000 . but first , i was curious about something and decided to poke a little further . cheat engine has a
find out what addresses this instruction access
feature . this gave me a long list of memory addresses that looked like areas of the background map . the first address in the list was 0241dd80 . let ' s browse this memory region .
in the middle of the picture you can see an area of memory . at the top our address 0241dd80 with contents 79 ( a tile number ) . look at bgb ' s vram viewer on the left and you ' ll see tile 79 is the top left corner of the box that text appears in during the game . this should now look very familiar as is the same thing we were previously looking at in bgb ' s vram viewer .
i went with the first address in my list 004fe295 . now i ' d be able to read the first two byes of this address then append ddc1 and this would give me a reliable way of drilling down into the area of memory in the bgb process i ' m interested in that would persist across restarts of the software .
you can see how the gameboy screen is comprised of 8x8 tiles and how each character takes up one of those tiles but what about the じ and ポ characters ? the dakuten and handakuten both sit on their own lines of text for these . this was done because there wasn ' t enough room for all of those characters in their rendaku form .
by this point in time my application was just spitting things out the console but it needed a proper interface . the instant lookup dictionary i wanted to use was rikaichan which i use on a daily basis . this is a web based so i ' d need a web based interface to make use of this . after i got a quick http server piping out my data i wrote a quick html page and some javascript to poll my application for changes and update only when a change is found .
i ' d now got a working prototype that could assist in my studies . the prototype is written in c # though i ' ll admit c + + seems like a better fit for this but i wanted a chance to play around with c # and it seemed like a good language for a quick proof of concept .
there are a few improvements i ' d consider making to my application . in the near future i ' d like to rework the code to support other games . in the distant future perhaps i ' ll use websockets instead of polling as it feels cleaner to me and i might even consider reworking the code to support other emulators .
even before the outbreak of war in 1939 , a group of american scientists–many of them refugees from fascist regimes in europe–became concerned with nuclear weapons research being conducted in nazi germany . in 1940 , the u . s . government began funding its own atomic weapons development program , which came under the joint responsibility of the office of scientific research and development and the war department after the u . s . entry into world war ii . the u . s . army corps of engineers was tasked with spearheading the construction of the vast facilities necessary for the top - secret program , codenamed “the manhattan project ” ( for the engineering corps’ manhattan district ) .
after world war ii , most of hiroshima would be rebuilt , though one destroyed section was set aside as a reminder of the effects of the atomic bomb . each august 6 , thousands of people gather at peace memorial park to join in interfaith religious services commemorating the anniversary of the bombing .
over the next several years , the program’s scientists worked on producing the key materials for nuclear fission–uranium - 235 and plutonium ( pu - 239 ) . they sent them to los alamos , new mexico , where a team led by j . robert oppenheimer worked to turn these materials into a workable atomic bomb . early on the morning of july 16 , 1945 , the manhattan project held its first successful test of an atomic device–a plutonium bomb–at the trinity test site at alamogordo , new mexico .

but the adventures begin with a little origami . the paper - folding art form is the centerpiece of a storytelling show that kubo ( voiced by art parkinson ) performs for his village .
“if you must blink , do it now , ” he says as he begins . then , using a guitar and a little magic , he brings sheets of paper to life as characters that act out a story . that narrative is a miniature version of the movie’s plot , which is the first of laika’s films to be directed by its president and chief executive , travis knight .
using one frame from the film , here is a closer look at how the origami sequence came together , including commentary from mr . knight and one of the animators , kevin parry .
1 . kubo electrifies a crowd with his samurai tale . “the deeper i got into the movie , the more of myself i saw in this kid , ” mr . knight said . “he’s an artist , he’s a storyteller , he’s a musician , and he’s an animator , really . ”
kubo’s design stands in sharp contrast to the perfect geometric shapes of the fantasy paper figures . for the design of kubo and the other human characters , the filmmakers were inspired by dolls from the late edo period in japan ; the period ran from the early 1600s to the mid - 1800s .
those dolls were historically made from cloth , wood , lacquer paper and human hair . so the animators used human hair on kubo , with a silicon coat combed through it for durability .
a scene where origami figures come to life in “kubo and the two strings . ”
2 . as kubo starts his show , his characters are conjured from flat pieces of paper that fly into the sky and magically fold into characters and objects . stop - motion origami is something new for a laika film and presented animators with a challenge .
“they would just leave me with a bunch of sheets of paper and say , ‘go figure it out , ’” mr . parry recalled . he eventually decided to use cinefoil , a kind of malleable aluminum material . that was covered with paper towels and painted .
the folding of the paper had to look real only from the camera’s point of view , so the animators , rather than creating real origami , cut out shapes and discreet bits of folded paper that would appear to form out of a single sheet .
