Thanks! If I really cannot find a match with these font checkers...then I usually pick the one who looks closest to what is on the artwork.
What do you do in those circumstances? When u can't find the matching font?

I make it using the pen tool in photoshop. It takes a long time but it's really the only way to do it properly.

That is sadly still way beyond my skills 😭
for now at least...

To go into a bit more detail. I use the pen tool in shape mode that way I can use the fill and stroke functions. You can watch a tutorial on the functions of the pen tool and there is a website to teach you the skill of how the tool works https://bezier.method.ac/ it's not that hard to learn, it just may seem that way when you start.

The Japanese text also means Parodius (パロディウス)
I've made it to look similar because I cannot find the exact Japanese font. If someone does know the font, I can easily recreate it more correctly

This is the site I use to identify Japanese fonts. I don't read/write Japanese so I don't know how accurate it is. https://en.likefont.com/
