There's a bunch of detail in the development thread, if you're interested, that will give you more details on the video subtitling ...

As for the in-game speech, the original code is just doing a slow-teletype-style printing of ROM font glyphs into a bitmap area in VDC-B.

I hacked the original code to change the input data from SJIS to ASCII (plus a few other mods) and then used my own vwf font and code to print into the original VDC-B bitmap.

For the Sakuraigar Mode intros that didn't have any original subtitling, I just wrote my own system that basically does the same sort of thing as in-game subtitles, and uses the same print routine that I'd already written, and then hacked it all into place inside Zeroigar's original slideshow code.
