Nope it isn't same OST that gamemp3's released. This one is full OST (as far as I can tell anyway, totalling 69 tracks), 3 disc set that comes with a UMD (unfortunately region 2 only, may import a JPNS PSP now). However, I've been informed by Godai that they plan to release this one by tomorrow. So everyone will be able to get their hands on a digital copy!

And yup, that's the english version of the manga, translated by UDON (the guys that did/are-doing the Street Fighter comics).

Hmm if I remember well my game rip had 58 tracks + OP & ED so it is 60 tracks in all =). I wonder what are those other 9 tracks =)?

That's good. I might buy that then. I was disappointed in that first one. Do you know what's on the UMD?

Im coming real close to just buying the OST, Ive never really fallen head over heels before like this and i still need to beat the game! ugh stupid graduation. I only have like 3 levels left though and summer has already begun so it should be done before the end of the week. Im at some beach ready to assault the pharmacy...but idk what to do, Soki and Jubei are pretty maxed out (i do not have the uber pwnge weapons, those flying enemies in the Dark Realm are bitches because i dunno how to kill em with Soki or Jubei.). any reccomendations?

Not sure. I do know that the 3rd disc sounds like it's filled with all the cut scene music. Some of the tracks are even combined together (like the Intro movie tracks). So technically there's more than 9 other tracks. Oh and the last track on the 2nd disc sounds like it was something they composed specifically for the OST, as I've never heard in the game. Here's YSI link to it for your listening pleasures, not sure on the tag though (that's what I could make out from the katakana, and Hideyuki Fukasawa as being composer is what I assumed, it could very well have been Jamie Christopherson).

Yea the first OST was ok, but the book itself was well worth it. As for the UMD, it looks like just a bunch of cut scenes (though, pretty sure it's more than that). Won't actually know till I decide to import a Japanese PSP. According to CDJapan though, the UMD supposedly has 120 minutes of video made using the same graphics that were used for the game.

Well for those flying enemies, just use lv2/3 Light magic and lock onto em. Or you could try getting a friend to go through DR with you, as they play as Ohatsu or Tenkai (these two are probably the best when it comes to air bourne monsters).

For flying enemies I just used certain moves. With Soki I used his launcher, Jubei that one where she leaps into the air (back, forward, attack), Roberto that uppercut (back, forward, attack).

Thanks a lot for the link =) and yeah there are always tracks that are hard to get from game and we can never see them on OST. I don't know why I'm not so obsessed with the game... Sure I was playing it for 4 days in a row but just don't know =)

EDIT:
LoL this track is in the game and I remember hearing it even few times. I'm sure of it I have good hear for music and stuff. Only the beginning is new or it was not played in game but for 100% it was in game.

That track seems like a medley of various songs from the game.

UGH! i still cant get these fucking flying mages! I try my lvl2/3 oni magic but thats only gotten me 1 kill so far. I also dont have a friend i could play it with =(

I AM SO FUCKING PROUD OF MYSELF! 2 hrs but i did it, 50th floor of DR. Got Exaclibur..god im falling in love with this game...AGAIN. My hands are killing me but i love it. With the orbs I got, im maxing out Excalibur and putting the rest into Jubeis armor because shes next for DR

I need to calm down and find money for the Night of Genesis manga.

Flying mages
 

Yeah them things suck! the only way i was able to kill them was by pure luck but there has to be a better way some how.

Has ne one got soki's wepon on lvl 100 of dark realm? and is it worth goin all the way for it?

I got the first volume of the manga. It's really good, and I like how it goes into Jubei's backstory. I hope all the characters get that kind of treatment. I'd definitely like to see more about their pasts.

Also the original Jubei got wicked old O.O

Are the mangas from Tokyo pop? If so, I'm defintly gonna get then along with Kingdom Hearts

Nope, it's translated by UDON, probably best known for their Street Fighter comic series (which is outstanding). They did a pretty good job though, I definitely suggest picking it up. Can't wait till volume 2, "Twilight of Desire."

did you ever found out whats on the UMD that came with the OST hantei?

All you need to kill those flying mages are upward slashes. Basically Ohatsu won't give you trouble, or Tenkai.

Also I got their last weapons and they're awesome. Go for it.

If I remembered correctly, I read somewhere that it supposedly contains some sort of drama/scene using the game's engine. Won't be able to find what's exactly on it till I can afford to import a JPNS PSP (unfortunately region locked).
