Me: I have way too projects going on. I have way too many things in general going on. I am constantly exhausted from having too many things on my plate all the time.
Also me: What if I reverse-engineered RPG Tsukuru: Super Dante specifically for the purpose of a fan translation of FORCE OF SEX

If no one else tries to hack it before I have the free time to do it, I will be requesting your assistance! (I am seriously overloaded right now, though, so not for a while.)
You know what, I haven't booted up the SRAM. I guess this is a save file for Super Dante itself, so I guess the game editor is already there, script editor and all...?
Oh dang, you're probably right! I haven't had the time to boot it up yet, but I'm guessing Super Dante has a Latin alphabet built right in (after all, FORCE OF SEX is written in English on the title screen...)
I was just about to mention something like this after:
1.) Opening up the copy I downloaded on a whim,
2.) Seeing that it was SRAM and not a whole ROM of the game,
3.) Realizing you'd need to translate the base game in its entirety, and not just the SRAM, and
4.) Reading this conversation after coming back here to mention all this.
I booted up the ROM and took a quick look. I think it would probably be possible to get away with just translating the actual in-game menu stuff and not all the wraparound UI (and maybe possible to just boot straight into the game, which I know was done for at least Jewel of Live). But it does only have a very ugly full-width A L L C A P S Latin alphabet font. Would take some work to make it decent for sure.
I also just booted up the game with the FORCE OF SEX SRAM. It works!
It's a pretty easy game fwiw. I've already facerolled my way to γ»γγ―γΉ with the first princess.
Have you tried using the save ram with the existing fan translations of RPG Maker?
I haven't yet! I just learned of its existence last night. It's quite old (the last update is from 2002!) and looks like it's relying on the existing Latin alphabet font, but it's at the very least a good base to work from.
