EDIT: I've used the Kindle Previewer to test them myself and no longer need help.

Hello.
My Kobo aura HD screen just broke and I am now strongly considering buying the Kindle paperwhite 2015.

I get all my Japanese books by converting a text file to an epub.
I tried converting some of these text files to mobi and I am curious if they work properly.

I'd like someone (preferably with a Kindle Paperwhite 2015) to open these and try to scroll through a bit, select text, etc. and report to me if there are any issues such as lagging.
If it's possible I'd also like a screenshot or two.

example 1.mobi
[松本清張] example 2.mobi
[安部公房] example 3.mobi
[田中ロミオ] 人類は衰退し.azw3
[森茉莉] 甘い蜜の部屋.mobi
4 of them are mobi, one is azw3. All are in Japanese.

Here is a screenshot of what example 1 is supposed to look like. I am especially concerned if the small text next to some letters (circled with red on screenshot) display Ok.
