ROM Hack help translating

[DryerRaptor4441]

Hi.
I want to translate DEATH NOTE: KIRA GAME from Japanese to English.
I have no clue where to start.
I downloaded a binary editor and then realised they don't support Japanese text.
Halp needed.
Thanks.

Do you know Japanese ( https://gbatemp.net/threads/densetsus-translation-toolbox.311523/ being a good start)? If you know Japanese you might find someone to help you, though for a basic anime game and actually one that is sitting there with some thoroughly mediocre reviews ( https://www.amazon.co.jp/コナミデジタルエンタテインメント-13305881-DEATH-NOTE-キラゲーム/dp/B000HDTCT0 ) you will have to sell others on it well.

Otherwise games don't have any one format (devs really do make up any number of things) and you will want to have some technical skills behind you before jumping into that side of things.

The barrier to entry is not the highest and you can get started fairly easily
