Makai Station

* Mittens (VA: Saki Fujita), the Buridango insect, is introduced. These kinds of insects emit a foul odor that repels human, but Mittens apparently likes this prince and she's hoping Metallica will help her find a way to get close to him.
* Two new faucets introduced:
- Trick Screamer: I'm having a very hard time deciphering this with google translate. It sounds like it's defense isn't all that great, but you can turn enemies to your side.
- Shinobi the Assassin: An overall great offensive form in exchange for not so great defense.
* As stated in previous posts, your job is to destroy the pillars to allow Metallica to spread her influence, but they also serve as nice little checkpoints throughout the game.
* As you go through the game, you earn grade points that you can place into various different stats. If I reading this correctly, it seems like you can adjust your grade points when you're at your base, allowing you to prepare for whatever dangers you may face.
* You may encounter rare enemies called Anima during the game. They carry some really rare items, but can disappear if the fight drags on too long.
* You can ask for wishes from Metallica which allow you to change various things in the world. It's pretty much the equivalent of Disgaea's Dark Assembly.

* Characters:
- Plume (VA: Saori Hayami), Schwert's energetic Battle Princess. A little happy-go-lucky but very powerful and loves to fight. Wields a sword.
- Larts (VA: Atsushi Abe), Plume's squire and the straight man to the energetic princess. He wields a bow.
- Uni (VA: Hiromi Igarashi), local craftsman who builds and repairs furniture for the king. Surprisingly calm and sharp tongued in spite of the loli genki girl appearance. Wields a staff
- King Shiguto (VA: Junji Majima), king of Schwert and Plume's brother turned goose.
* Combat unfolds like you'd expect from a 2D ARPG. You're on a 2D plane fighting enemies with varying styles of combat. Plume naturally focuses on close range combos with her sword. Ratsu use his bow and arrows from afar and can pop-up enemies for juggling. Uni uses powerful magic bullets.
* As you level up, you gain more powerful techniques and depending on how well you use them, you might activate a special team finishing move.
* Limited Edition copies come with the OST.
