Katakana font...

I disagree that the text is 100% katana but then again i dont speak Japanese. Some of the fonts do NOT match even remotely to the Katana set. However i do think the origion of many of the characters comes from the Katana font set. Once again i dont speak Japanese and could be completely wrong and look forward to an interpretation if that is even possible at this point of the text. Please look at some of my enlarged characters and you will notice the differences.

Nope - with all due respect to all posters (I find all your opinions of value), I submit that, although Katakana, indeed several Asian texts, have a few strokes that resemble the drone characters - it is not a direct match.

No matter how you flip it, reverse it, mirror image it, the drone fonts form no 1-to-1 or 1-to-many correlation with any of perhaps 100 or so current and ancient genuine and fictitious character sets examined thus far.


My deduction thus far (along with several scholars from around the world -including Japan) is that the drone craft writing, if human engendered, is a construct of several fonts into an amalgamation of one's imagination and glyphic abilities. Someone is merely exercising a little creative "font license"...

Or, it's alien. Though, at this juncture, I give that a less than 5% probability.

The katakana font you posted is one of hundreds out there. It`s just like english, you have Times New Roman, Arial, etc... On my work computer, I think I have about eighty or so. Some are more blocky and sleek (like what`s on the drone thing) and some are more like what you posted, very exact and similar to the penmanship you`d expect from your first grade teacher as she writes "A is for Apple" on the blackboard.

(this also has serious implications for people getting japanese or chinese tats - having the kanji for "killer" on your arm loses its intended effect when it`s written in a style you`d expect to see in a kids picture book about fluffy bunnies. but i digress)

I`m sticking with the maker buying a katakana stencil set and putting random characters on there.

I wasn't the one who posted the Katakana font above; bokinmowl did. I was merely setting HIS/HER font next the to drone writing to try to visualize a 1-to-1 correlation.

I am also well aware that katakana, just like English, Hungarian, and yes, even Klingon, Enochian, etc., can ALL be stylized and represented by any number of a wide variety of font-types. This is common knowledge. Anyone who has used Microsoft Word in any language understands this.

So, if one of the "...eighty or so" katakana fonts on your computer match the drone glyph symbols, I'm sure we'd all be very interested in seeing them...

Bring it...

Oh - and please provide a translation while you're at it... Thanks!

The odds of me being able to get to this while at work are fairly slim. I work in a japanese office, and if I`m spotted going over somethiong like this by my colleagues, I`m going to have a bit of a rough time of it. Work is work. This is decidedly NOT work. That said, I will do what I can this week.

As far as a translation, I did that a couple of pages back. When looking at the text, you should remember that the orientation is not always the same. Some of the lines are upside down. Some of the individual kana are backwards and upside down within the text - notably in the piece closest to the ring on what I guess is the Chad drone. This is the tip off for me that someone is using a katakana stencil kit or decal set and is more interested in the overall look of the thing, rather than having it actually make sense..

(FWIW, I`m convinced that this thing is a model, as opposed to CGI. The Basket thing hanging off the bottom in the newer pic is something I`ve seen before, and it`s driving me nuts trying to remember where. Hanging in a barn, I`m almost positive. Made of iron.)

On to the katakana fonts:

This is what I`ve been able to come up with - and it will probably be my last contribution to this for the day, as I`ve got to head to the office this afternoon. Just a quick google.jp search on カタカナ　フォント　(katakana font) came up with several hundred thousand hits. Finding a direct match of this one may take a bit of time. Here`s some links for interested people to browse through:

www2.wind.ne.jp...
^ this link has about 100 font sets on it, although many of them are roman

www.orange.ne.jp...
^ this one is a little easier to navigate

www.fontfontfont.com...
^ click the window that says #パーゲ　to go to the next page

cfont.jp...
^ the second one down looks like a promising match to me, but at this point I`ve been looking through fonts for about half an hour, so I think I might be losing my ability to think criticaly about this.

Ok. I`ve spent sa much time as I can on this for now, I`m off to work. Hope that helps.

So, if one of the "...eighty or so" katakana fonts on your computer match the drone glyph symbols, I'm sure we'd all be very interested in seeing them...

Bring it...

I agree
Bring it vox2442. You sound pretty sure of yourself, please provide some font style proof for us to review.




Also i'm intrigued and confused by that post. Are those actual characters from some unkown font set? If so thats a dead match and EXACTLY what i've been searching for.... or is it just a clarified version of the Drone's fonts?

edit: So I thought I had checked all pages prior to posting this image link. I should have known better. Someone beat me to it! Cheers.

Lose the "bring it" crap. Where I come from, those are very antagonistic words. Extremely rude at best.

I`m just a guy who happens to live in Japan and speak Japanese and work in a Japanese office all day - and based on what I`ve seen every single day for the last 5 years or so in ads, newspapers, television, manga, billboards, posters, handbills and the pizza menus that get stuffed through my mailbox on a daily basis, it is my opinion that it is a katakana font. One that has been applied without apparent care for orientation of the characters, and a little bit of crafty scissorwork to make it seem a little alienesque. That`s what it looks like to me.

I`m still searching fonts. I revise my earlier number of 80 to a number rapidly approaching 1000. If you check through the links in my last post, you`ll understand that. There are quite a few in those links that are similar, but lacking in one or two details. Nothing that couldn`t be solved with a pair of scissors though.

That said, I think this is the most promising route to investigate:

That`s it for me. Back to the office.

Hey all, i created a thread to try to consoldate the Transformer Viral Campaign evidence into one place.

unfortunately I am not super well versed in ATS... so we need your help, if interested.

I was just thinking, those c2c drone pics must be the best UFO pictures one can ever hope for. Still everyone believes they are a hoax. (Including me.) So the message of the whole thing probably is: Unless there's an Independence Day like full scale invasion, the existence of UFOs is impossible to prove.

Why?

What makes a UFO picture the "best UFO picture"?

What does differentiate one common UFO picture from a good UFO picture or "the best" UFO picture?

Is it the picture quality? The detail of the UFO? Then the best pictures are probably the hoaxes, it is easier to create the picture than to have the means and opportunity of taking such a picture.

Is it the value of the picture as evidence of the existence of UFOs? In that case the best pictures are the most difficult to take and the most difficult to fake because they must show the UFO in a environment and situation that can be confirmed independently from the people who took the picture.

That is why I am still waiting for the best, to me, UFO picture.

Amazing! and you think the drone text is katakana? I'm in utter disbelief. Now, I've long since given up trying to tell people who don't know Japanese that it isn't katakana, but you??

Thats exactly what I mean. Before photoshop, people complained about the photographic 'evidence' being either too blurry, out of focus or fake looking. Now its the 'perfection' of the pics that raises suspicion. Even the producer of the drone pics pulled some tricks to make them look less perfect.

My thesis is, you could have aliens pose for your camera inside a UFO and people would call it hoax. You could have the President confess on camera that UFOs are real, and people would call it a hoax. And rightly so, because today everything can be faked.

I just can't imagine a photo or clip that would make me say "Wow, thats it. They are real!"

Not by itself. But why should anyone lament that you can't prove a UFO by photos alone? If you have multiple witnesses from different view points, multiple pictures from different viewpoints, corraboration of earth based and air based radar along with the visual sightings, plus the possibility of trace material or a demonstrable change in the environment, then you've got yourself a case.

MANY sightings have this level of detail over the years. Quick remembered example: The JAL 747 Cargo plane over Alaska had most of these elements. Visual, radar on the plane, radar on the ground.

I think it says something along the lines of, "Wow you have a lot of time on your hands" or "Go see the uber transformers movie this summer"

*sigh*

Once more.

It`s a katakana font that has been manipulated to look like an alien script.

If I write the word "ZXKHJDFTRBT", you can easily look at it and see that it`s a roman font, but that it means nothing. Right?

If I write it again, using a pointy futuristic font, you`ll still see what it is. Just a bunch of random letters. Right?

If I write it again, but I turn the K and the D backwards, and put one of the T`s upside down, and overlay the F and the X, for example, ae you suddenly going to freak out and say "Holy crap, it`s Aliens!"??

I`m guessing no. You`ll look at it, and because you see the letters all the time, you`ll figure out quite quickly that it`s just a bunch of random characters.

In this case, to me, as someone who sees katakana every day, it looks like someone has done exactly that.

I can read the katakana fonts you posted. I'm familiar with fonts used in manga and advertising etc. Even if the font used on the drone was distorted or exagerated, it would be recognizable if it were katakana.

In this case, to me, as someone who sees katakana every day, it looks like someone has done exactly that.

And to me, as someone who not only "sees" but has been reading katakana for years, this ain't. Sorry. Match em up for us. Don't tell us you're too busy at the office. Put up or shut up. Please be advised--many, many people in 3 (4?) threads have made the same claim you are making. Talk is cheap.

If this is true, there may actually be a hidden message, as opposed to what I thought earlier which was it was fabricated to look authentic.

If this (referring to quote) actually checks out, someone could have fabricated it to look authentic AND have a translation.
