And that's the news this past week, has anything caught your eye? Review embargo has broken for The Legend of Heroes: Trails from Zero, and it's looking like a fairly solid JRPG entry. (Releases 9/27.)

I'll be scouring for other noteworthy updates in a later post this weekend, such as the announcement of various titles being confirmed for English release. Thank you for your understanding and patience!

And that's the past two weeks in review, thank you for your patience! NIS has finally made their big announcement for the seventh Disgaea game, and it boasts a whopping forty-five generic units, a notable jump up from the previous iteration's somewhat lacking generic roster. (Presumably, many were cut due to it being their first step into 3D.)
