You're right. Italic is rarely used in Japanese, and it seems the English styling was inadvertently applied to the Japanese text as well.
I'll fix it right away.

To clarify, I write the posts myself, carefully thinking through and refining the content. Since I'm Japanese and not a native English speaker, I use AI to assist with translation.
You're right about the fading — if you keep writing in one long block, lines stay. I write in short paragraphs myself, so I hadn't noticed. I'll think about how to handle this better.
On losing text: lines don't fade the moment you hit return. They wait until you start typing again. I found that fading on return alone left the screen empty at exactly the moment I needed to think.
The lag on Firefox/Ubuntu is something I'd like to look into — I haven't tested on that environment. The autocorrect issue is likely a browser limitation, but I'll see if there's a workaround.
Thank you for trying it, and for staying long enough to find the reader mode.
The frustration at the start is real. It doesn't fully go away. But for me, it slowly became something else — a feeling of gently letting go of what I'd written.
I thought hard about the reader mode. For long-form writing, an app where you can never look back is just too limiting. In the end, I decided to keep both.
Interesting concept – reminds me of Slither.io in the sense that you capture others to grow stronger. Using chess pieces as the progression system is a clever twist.
Curious whether there are plans to add forms beyond Queen – it seems like there’s room to expand the progression further.
