    Thank you for sending the log file.

    Restoring the standard font may solve the problem.
    Please check the following page for the procedure.
    (3. Restore system fonts to default setting.)
    https://help.live2d.com/en/cubismeditor/cubism-editor-ui-texts-are-garbled/

    If you still have problems, install the font "Times".

    Also try deleting the settings folder.
    Delete the “Live2D” folder located in the directory below.
    Before deleting, make a backup by copying the folder to another location.
    /Users/[username]/Library/Live2D

    If that does not solve the problem, please contact us again.
    Thank you in advance.
