While no one was expecting such a thing... someone was working behind the scenes (I didn't know either) and since I didn't saw this in here I just decided to share it...

I don't share here because I think this is inappropriate.
Like I said here:
https://gbatemp.net/threads/frontier-gate-boost-translation-project.460408/page-3
I want someone to help identify kanji,
I have batch identification with OCR from google,
and make a rough table.
about 75% are correct, and the rest need more thorough identification.
Please help identify the kanji,
that way a better translation/text dump can be done, so someone can translate it

I see... I've already forgotten about that and I didn't noticed it was you...
Just looking in that spreadsheet I could ifentify a few of the kanji I'm familiar with, although I can identify it that doesn't mean that I can read them nor type them. I saw some of them merged? That's is hard to idenfity.

you can download a KANJI+.zip version in previous thread for reference, that actualy same whith image in sheet , i use crc32 to sort kanji to avoid repeated identification,

Let me give it a try, I'll use your spreadsheet and follow the pattern you are using in it, let me try to identify a few and I'll send it to you so you can check to see if I did something wrong.

I love Frontier Gate! I'm also fluent in Japanese and an experienced ROM hacker, so I'm very eager to help. I can identify all the Kanji you want. How do I go on about this? I had a look at your spreadsheet, but obviously don't have write access. Should I just make a copy?

just request for access, or send me your gmail.
Make a copy also a good option,
identification of kanji is optional, if all kanji have been checked, I don't hesitate to share the script/tool that I use.

Here you go (it's a .csv file, but apparently that's not an allowed extension). Virtually all Kanji should be identified correctly, but there might be the occasional mistake due to the small resolution (what were the devs thinking?) There were like 2 or 3 I just couldn't identify, though, but they should hopefully be easy to get right once a sentence where they're used is dumped. The last 150 or so didn't have an associated image, so I couldn't do anything there.

So what are the next steps? Can I help?

That's my intention! I gave the tools from the repository a try and they'll serve as a great base for a translation. Good work, Gil_Unx. However, I have other projects that I want to prioritize at the moment (Tales of Innocence R and Tales of Destiny 2, first and foremost), so don't expect lightning-speed progress here. I also suspect FGB+ to not exactly be the most demanded translation in video game history, but I'd love to be proven wrong, especially since I do really like the game.
