Writes Neo:
It’s finally time to play Nihon Falcom’s newest game; Kyoto Xanadu!
This is falcom’s first game in over 10 years that isn’t an Ys or Trails release!

Says hack author HatZen08 on this respinner in a forum post on FF6Hacking here:
It is a built-in randomizer. After the name setup, all characters will be randomized. Each different name should create a different setup. You can’t change their jobs or abilities.
The ‘row’ and ‘def’ commands were changed to ‘fray’ and ‘heal’. ‘fray’ will attack a random enemy with a fight command and ‘heal’ will recover[] half of the caster hp. It is designed to be a basic attack/healing if nothing better is available.
The first command will be a random menu-alike ability, like white, black, throw, sing, drink, etc. The other three comands will be abilities without menu, like dance, gaia, flirt, guard, etc.
The weapons and gears that the characters can equip were randomized as well.
The jobs were updated and have old, new or updated traits. Those traits can change the behaviour of the ‘fray’ and ‘heal’ commands and add unique quirks to the characters.

Regarding a recent update, version 1.1, HatZen08 adds:
I updated the project. In summary, the changes were new/updated abilities and new counter traits. Instead of counter only with the ‘fight’ command, others commands can be used as counters instead of only ‘fight’.
For balance and to add the new counters i changed the traits by job.
The hack incorporates the GBA Script Port addendum to the RPGe translation.
Additional documentation is slated to be provided on the release of the hack.
Update: the documentation and even assembly source are now included, available on FF6Hacking here.
