Not to necro the thread, but I've got the same issue as Anedepami, with the weird glitched boxes between words in the translated version. Changing my computer's locale and using Locale Emulator both don't do a darn thing, and the game did work fine when I played it a year ago. Maybe it was the upgrade to Windows 10 that messed it up, or maybe it was something else, I dunno. If anyone's got some insight on this, it'd be much appreciated.
EDIT: I finally figured it out, and the solution is...well, baffling, to say the least. To make the text display correctly, I have to launch the game...without the Japanese locale active, either in my OS settings or in Locale Emulator. I frankly have absolutely no idea why this works, but it does, so I'm happy.
