Closing Comment: I haven't watched the anime, so I don't know much about the series. It looks somewhat interesting, although some of the character designs look a bit weak to me. Others don't look too bad, but a few of them look like they're right out of Project Justice's neck of the woods. I'd like to give the game a try eventually. ~F.Yagami, Webmaster of TFG
