Hmmm... looking at DEEN's track record in adaptation, it seems to be disappointing for old fans, but they do indeed hook new fans in.
If I want a remake, I'll give it to ARMS, give them tons of money and make it a 52 episode series.
Anyway, sad to hear that Matsuribayashi-hen won't be included in the PS2 port, but would be interesting to see/read the new arcs the author created. Now if you'll excuse me...
waits for one of the import stores to list it on their preorders list
