Here are the rest of the scans.

They're currently developing this game and many expect the game to be released in Japan later this year. Sadly, this means that we may have to wait until Winter or the early part of 2008. But the news of the sequel is better than no news at all!

Just by going on the looks of the new Reivateils alone, it seems like we have characters that give off the Misha (Reivateil in Purple) and Shurelia (Reivateil in white) feel.

Looking at the screens, they seem to have detailed the background of the fights and areas much better than the first game.

I see dive points, so we're probably diving once again. I wouldn't change much about the theme of the last game including the certain uneasy talk topics. That's what made the game fun. So hopefully they left that kind of stuff in there.

As for the characters, Misha was perfect. Easily my favorite girl character in any form of media. If anyone even comes close to her, then I'll be satisfied.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Winterstorm, could you give me the whole image of your Misha Avatar? That's by far, my favorite pose of her, but I can't find it anywhere!

More news

According to this site some small details have been revealed.

Quote:

Ar Tonelico will continue in its second installment, which is due out in Japan later this year (unspecified date). The tentative title is Ar Tonelico 2: Sekai ni Hibiku Shoujo Tachi no Souzoushi/Metafarica. A rough translation is Ar Tonelico 2: The Crafting Song (Metafarica) of Maidens That Fills the World With Sound. Speculation shows that the game takes place in Sol Ciel again, possibly in the past. Metafarica refers to a Reyvatel song that is able to create new land. The confirmed characters are as follows:

Croshe- Blond-haired Reyvateli
Ruka- Blue-haired Reyvateli
Croa- Protagonist, similar outfit to a Knight of Elemia.
Other characters can be seen, including a girl with two swords and a male character with two spiked shields.

It's bad enough the first game tries to imply that "little girls" are hot and should be sought after. @_@;;;;;;;

But they are hot and they should be sought after . . . . .

My God. They got to me!

You really should play around with Shurelia's cosmosphere. I mean if the loli stuff bothers you, then I have no idea how you got past Misha's first few 2 levels. Shurelia’s stuff doesn’t even touch any of those kinds of themes. She doesn’t show signs of mental issues like Aurica and Misha. (Regardless, I still think both of them are awesome. Especially Misha.)

Shurelia's stuff doesn't really bother with her age issues. And besides, she acts like the typical anime mom personally. Although, in the latter parts of her talk levels, she starts acting more like an aunt. I can't really explain why.

Regarding Croa's manliness . . . well he's still giving off more of a manly vibe than Lyner did. He actually reminds me of Dias Flac from Star Ocean 2. The only difference is that Dias didn't wear such frilly clothing.

Two Reivateils at once, huh? Awesome! I wanted to stack my party with the girls in the last game, but we couldn't use more than one Reivateil, so that was a bust. Krusche was the only girl fighter, so I couldn't plan out my team like I wanted do.

I do see Croshe wielding a blade in her character art, so maybe she can be a fighter too?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.
