MB does no manipulation of the font/characters displayed. The 2nd set of separators are bullet points generated by MB

not the bullet point or space between bullet point but at the first of publisher name (Della) there is
seem a little "space" before D because its vertical is not very well line with R from relaxing & M from Makiko.
maybe zoom  a bit will help.

Relaxing
Makiko
 Della

similar to above example.

Red Arrow is showing tilde on main panel inccorectly.
Green arrow is showing tilde on bottom panel correct.
one is ˜ and another is ~ .
here another picture to make it clear about tilde position.

Could this issue possibly be due to clashing between your Windows fonts themselves?
Have you tried searching based on for similar problems with other programs or within Windows itself?

In font Calibri, the regular tilde ~ is placed higher than in other fonts.
That explains why it almost looks like a small tilde in the upper part of your screenshot, although it is not.

But now: why is it different in the bottom panel? It's possible that another font (with similar metrics) has been selected for that location.
Could you check in Preferences -> tab 'Layout (1)' -> section 'bottom panel' if the check box in front of 'custom font' is ticked (and what font name is displayed)?

For your information, font 'Carlito' has almost the same metrics as Calibri, but the regular tilde is placed lower.
If you don't have it on your computer, it's free and available at Google Fonts:

Below, a screenshot comparing Calibri and Carlito:

i cant reproduce any issues with either of those skins, so it will remain unsolved.

edit:
if you are using a custom background image, MB should block the 'crop to circle' setting but it would potentially cause the effect you see
