There is still problem with Chinese being dead language for over 800 years, unless Kusari is using Chinese as well - while Japanese is relatively "easy" to be replaced with Latin Alphabet, every single actions like that aimed towards the Chinese failed miserably, as Chinese is not compatybile with Latin alphabet because of too much accents and tonnals, even if we make language simpler (Mandarin).
I'm pointing this out, as Kusari (Japanese) is unable to write down Chinese names (unless Japanese versions e.g. Song Wukong = Son Goku) due to lack of proper vowels (in exception of very few direct Chinese-to-Japanese words, Xia/Hsia, as present in Japanese Riichi Mahjong - yeah, nerdy side of me). Not to mention most of the Chinese names are not written the same, as Zhao =/= Zhao or Cao (prounouncation: Tsao) isn't exacly the very same Cao, even if it is homophone. That's why I mentioned Latin Alphabet fails miserably.
Unless there are all the data over the major languages (Chinese language group is one of languages used widely within UN today) that were used before Sol Exile and someone just reintroduces the language, as well as some games (Go being the simplest and the oldest game, Hanafuda due to the aestetics and being gambling game - especially on Golden Dragon Casino).
