I'm considering an import right now, I can learn Hiragana and look up all the words just for this... :) Looks lovely I must say, a shame it feels too obscure to ever be released in Europe or the US.

And then there is also Rezel Cross and Wild Arms Crossfire. A lot of 3rd parties have picked up the slack of what SCEA didn't want to bring over, from Agetec to XSEED to Atlus, but given PSP vs Wii sales, those companies seem to be shifting away from the PSP. And with SCEA so uninterested in RPGs or PSP games, we're probably going to be out of luck. Yeah, exactly, the KoP sequel came out a year ago in Japan, and no sign of ever coming to the US.

I forget the name but it was covered here earlier. Any plans on that one? But I'm gonna go ahead and call this one out: REJECTED by SCEA. No chance in hell.

The others that made it were done by other companies. And other than KoP, which I think was a launch title (or near to it), all were a year or so after the Japanese release.
