The stat names when leveling up for magic users turned into hearts

Questions

This is regarding FE6
Specifically, whenever a magic user tries to level up while animations are turned on, the Mag stat name just disappears and the Skill name turns into hearts.

This doesn’t happen when animations are turned off, and sometimes the game crashes whenever a magic user levels up or promotes. The last one has been very inconsistent for me so I’m not sure if it’s tied to that

If anyone knows what causes these things to happen I’d appreciate it. It’s never happened to me before

In Japanese ROMs, if you specify a character whose font does not exist in the ROM, it becomes a heart mark.
Probably, the status String has become a character whose font does not exist in the ROM.

I think that the heart mark is used because it is prominent.
