..but then I look at the gift Dice gave me, and I kind of just forget whatever I was thinking about.
Thank you! Definitely the loveliest fan art of Ariah I’ve seen – ever. That really made my day. I’m sure the colored version will be awesome+1.

Now, what was I going to talk about?

Ah, I got it! Persona 4, a.k.a. Persona 4-eyes. I knew it was in development, but now it’s already announced for July 10th in Japan. The preview video looks fairly interesting, though there’s the strong sense of “more of the same”. Not necessarily a bad thing, though. It’s still on the PS2, so the graphical limits are already set. After experiencing something like Lost Odyssey and Devil May Cry, I wonder if it might be hard for me to ‘go back’, but I guess I know I’ll get used to it. Definitely digging the music so far. The character design feels a bit off my preference though. You, whoever you are, get rid of that green jacket NOW. Also… your hair is a bit too short. I miss the emo-haired main character style too. In any case, here’s hoping they don’t take too long bringing it over here.

Time sure does fly by when you aren’t looking. Mana-Khemia is due out in just less than two weeks or so. This was one of the games I wanted to fool around with with the import version but never really got around to it. Scin says he enjoyed what he played of it though so I’m looking forward to it.

I think that’s it for now, I’m off to stare at the gift art again.
