The English dub is not too bad, the only possibly annoying thing is that you cant switch the language on the battle voices (only on main characters like Laharn, Etna, Flon and Plinny squads, all other units kept the original voices.) Is not Star Ocean 2 bad, so everything's ok.

Do you get to hear that punk rocky English song (can't remember its name now) which was in the Disgaea english demo download?
Did you receive the Disgaea doujin? Check you ICQ :)

Actually havent heard the song yet in game (left the game running for a bit but no intro or anything, just shows you battle demos.) I just played about 2 hours but havent advanced much on story, mainly leveling up charas.
Will check icq when i get back, thanks pron fairy!! bwa ha ha

Does the game keep the original japanese songs? Where does the new english song come in? Best way to check if the game keeps the original japanese songs is to lose to middle boss/beauty baron when you first meet him, instant ending + song!

All the regular songs seem to be unchanged, I guess they only replaced the main theme song (track 1?? dont remember the name) for the Tsunami bomb one. But i'll check on the spot you mention, the original Japanese song might be there if you play with the Japanese language setting. Maybe. It will take a while tho since i tend to spend too much time leveling up (in all games!) and I plan to have a super penguin.

I'm 99% certain whatever song they replaced is still there in the Japanese language setting.

I too braved the crowds of SC2 devotees and picked up a copy of Disgaea. So far the game looks adorably evil, what looks to be a clever game engine, and -if I so choose- the ability to spend absurd amounts of time tinkering with the game. Odds are I would have missed this title if people on this board hadn't been discussing it so my thanks to everyone here for getting me to try out Disgaea.

I wouldn't worry about it taking too long, it happens at the end of the first chapter.

Thank god for the Pinny defense line and the lukewarm stupidity of the non-ranged AI. It's the only thing that can save me from the difficulty at times.

Agreed. Played about 4 hours so far and am loving it. Light-hearted dark humor (if such a thing is possible), lots of fun systems, and the voices are great (even the English ones are passable in most cases). This will be the first new RPG I've played through since FFX JPN.

I am in chapter 3 of my second time through the JP version, I still love it. As far as SRPGs go, this is the Second Coming.

exodus is a cheap bitch that likes dickgirls and can't buy his own copy of disgaea!
I don't know if the english version already lists all these tricks with throwing, but... when you throw enemies onto each other, their levels combine when you carry people. you can carry people who are already carrying others and stack up. you can throw monsters(non-human) into that panel where you start from, and your party members will try to capture it you can do diagonal throwing if you throw just as the cursor is moving between the different directions and thieves got the best throw ability in the game, needed for item world!
