I can't be too sure what the new art looks like since it's a little small, but doesn't it look like those old Megaman covers where they buffed up the main characters? Shu looks like he's 20 yrs old here or something. It's pretty weird too considering Toriyama's art is the trademark of the game, just like Chrono Trigger...
