Mushi-Shi Complete Collection (S.A.V.E.)

Plot Synopsis: “Between this world and the next, there is a point where it becomes impossible to distinguish between plant and animal; between life and death. It is a place man was never meant to tread… It is where you will find the mushi. Neither good nor evil, they are life in its purest form. An unseen river reshaping the path of man, through their very presence we are changed. Vulgar and strange, they have inspired fear in humans since the dawn of time and have, over the ages, come to be known as ‘mushi.’”

This is a series that I have repeatedly heard good things about and have been meaning to get for a while. Then it landed in the S.A.V.E. line. So really, how could I not get it at this point? I love the S.A.V.E. line. It makes things cheap. Also makes whiny forum people complain about the green spine being ugly over and over even though the cover art is reversible and has a normal spine on the other side. Anime fans are stupid like that.

The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky (Premium Edition)

Plot Synopsis: “In the peaceful town of Rolent of the Liberl Kingdom, a young girl named Estelle and her friend Joshua, who had been taken in by her family years earlier, prepare to take their first steps to join the legendary guild of the Bracers. Bracers are considered the peacekeepers and protectors of order that owe allegiance to no country or government. In Liberl their guild has flourished since a brief war some ten years prior after an invasion from the Erebonian Empire to the north, and their efforts have made peace a lasting prospect. In the course of their journey to become full-fledged Bracers, Estelle and Joshua begin to see the peace threatened by a dark side of the ruling government that plots to overthrow the Liberl queen, Alicia. Together they travel the world on their quest to become Bracers and slowly unravel the truth behind the mastermind who seeks to bring war back to their borders.”

Heard good things about the game, figured I’d finally pick it up, and went for the premium edition because it’s still available. The premium edition comes with a soundtrack CD that I’ll never listen to and a double-sided poster that I’ll never put up. So glad I went for the premium edition. And chances are I’ll never even get around to finishing the game. It’s a complete mystery as to why I bothered buying this at all.
