    ...in Japanese. Details forthcoming. Plus I was tired of the negative connotations of the other thread title. Bums a guy out, ya know?

    I'm surprised the sprites have idle animations, they look great!

    @jj984jj: Absolutely! I think everyone was surprised by their animation, as it's been general shock and awe everywhere I've checked. This is shaping up to be a AAA title.

    The put up a new system section with a different video video, it's a bit longer bit it's still a major tease. It confirms that there's an interlude when battles begin until you being selecting attacks though, Meguro is straying away from the Rock of MegaTen and JPop of Persona to do something different it seems, I think he said he was going for a more mature sound on his atlusnet blog and in this clip we can hear Aztec-inspired music and orchestral music. I hope he mixes things up with with a bit of his rock style as well though, I don't like being teased like this! I want to hear more of the tracks in the video and other tracks in the game! :( 
     
    For the lazy, here's the new one:

    @jj984jj: Awesome! Can't believe I missed this one. 
     
    The pre-battle interlude is a returning "feature" from the older games. The music definitely has me interested as well. I like his rock sound too, but it's good to see him switching up styles a bit.

    Nice, those images are more interesting than this week's update which just shows off some story conversations. I hope they show off the goddamned battle system soon.

    This week's update is a profile on the blonde Russian woman Zelenin (Zerehnin? Pfft.) which is largely completely useless to those who don't know the moon runes. She looks to be explaning the Schwarzverse. 
     
    Get to the battle system already!
