Something I noticed is that non-English characters in the artist names for custom cards show up as boxes (though they appear fine in the artist description).

For example:

Artist: あぎさと


Artist: 月見斐夜

Unfortunately, the font used for the artist's name ("Beleren Small caps") is very limited and doesn't contain any of the unicode blocks beyond basic latin. I've never found an extended version, and there very well might not be one, looking at actual cards with non-latin characters (seems like a different font to me?).

Hmm. I may have to add a check for non-latin / extended characters, and substitute a different font.
To the beaten, the broken, or the damned; the lost, and the wayward: wherever I may be, you will have a home.

That would be nice if possible. I am kind of surprised there isn't an extended character list available considering how many times they have included Japanese Kanji and Haragana in the artist line.
