I found out some interesting stuff regarding the Japanese text in FFVI sprite sheets, thanks to snark over at RomHacking.net.

"とくしゅ", aka Tokushuu, means "special or unique."
The special may refer to that it is a special or unique sprite slot that only Terra seems to use?
Why do only a few sprites show the Japanese text whereas some are blank?

you know I often wondered about that myself

then, if Terra has it for some strange reason, why not Sabin as well? I mean he has this whole kick pose when he uses tiger break after all

Some of the sprites are actually animations. Take the unequipped-weapon "Punch" sprite, I believe that's an animation that overlays the character sprite.
