I often encoutner mojibake (characters turning unreadable) when trying to read something in Japanese online, It’s an annoying thing when it happens on a computer but it becomes interesting when it happens in reality.

When I write or stare at same characters over and over (like caligraphy), the character starts to look like letters that I’d never seen. My mind gets so bored that it start recognizing the characters from different perspectives and the character becomes illegible. It’s scary but really interesting..
