The Japanese FFVII demo from 1996 has some neat stuff in its WINDOW.BIN file.

Only problem is that the colors are messed up due to tile molestor not being adapted for the PlayStation. I have long searched for something that could do the trick for this demo but to no avail.
If anybody knows how to print this with the correct palette I'd be extremely thankful. It would be a neat resource to finally have those chibi versions of Cloud, Barret and Aerith.

In case you don't have the WINDOW.BIN file here is a download link.

It's a TIM-format image. Easy to view and select the correct palettes with a TIM viewer.
 
Mind showing the corrected versions when you find them? :)

I didn't know they had those. I remember reading that they considered sprites but didn't think they were implamented. 15 years later and still finding stuff xD
 
Demo means Previw version in Tobal No.1?
I had done it a little in April. But I became busy, I forgot all.
Preview version has some unused ability names and their descriptions (planned but discarded?)
ほうそく (Law?), かなでる (Play?), おどる (Dance), ふうじる (Seal) & ペースト (Paste).

Interesting stuff you found there.

If I understand this correctly, the "Zangan Text" is not the actual full table used in the final game? It differs from the final result? Could it perhaps be used to correct the Honey Bee Inn text?
EDIT: The more I look at it, the more it seems like this is what you've been doing.

Yes.
Mojibake Honey Bee Inn text completely suits Zangan text.

What does ultima espio curse?
He want to say that we never have those discs?

Espio is not cursing. He is happy about your/our finds.
He is also saying he wishes there were more than just those Cloud, Aerith and Barret sprites.
 
I feel very sorry for ultima espio. Please excuse me.
I must present for you.
