Four, four, four Shift-JIS drawings for the price of one! Our resident Shift-JIS expert, Kalcha, ordered these four Hallowe'eny characters to line up and get festive for MIST1016, and boy did they jump to it! Shift-JIS works like the ASCII art we all know and love, but the characters are not fixed-width – and they include Japanese ideographs, here seen only composing the body of the spider. (Fear not, those corner swastikas merely denote good fortune in an Asian context.)
