I bought Kenzan! when I was in Japan, and played through most of it. Like anyone who doesn't know Japanese beyond the basics, I only got part of the storyline - but still enjoyed it. :)

Massage parlor is in.
The final massage level is hilarious. But I'll let you guys discover that one on your own. 8-)
Glad you like the new cover art and the trailers so far!
I'm for real - previously, I posted mainly in the Valkyria Chronicles topic here on CAG. You can find my profile over on the SEGA blogs though.
Thanks Supplice for posting the link to the gamespot pre-order!
Lokizz - There are most definitely hostess clubs. :)
Very few things are being cut, and most are technically edits - minor things like changing the name of the dog from 'Rex' to it's original Japanese: 'Mame'. :)
We'll be able to confirm 100% what's in the game very soon, but if you compare the cuts in Y3 to Y4, well - there's really no...
Hey all,
With Yakuza 4 coming out soon, I figured we here at SEGA should drop a line to you guys and see if you have any questions about the game.
I know one of the big questions will probably be regarding cut content, which is where we have good news. we made an effort to keep as much as...
The book is totally worth it, if it's the same version from Japan. I paid about $60 to import the JP version a year ago.
It's huge, and everything from the artwork to the quality of the book itself is really well done.
We'll be doing some features every day to spotlight more of the game story and mechanics - first day is now live:

And of course, free stuff too.
Yep, definitely sit tight a little bit and grab the sequel if you can only pick one.
It has free online play, local multiplayer, and still has the RPG storyline. Win win.
Valkyria Chronicles II US Release Confirmed!
Can't wait to see some early builds of this game, I'm already stoked about the new customization options. As of right now, the game is officially coming west!
Some of you probably know, but today marks the 20th Anniversary of the SEGA Genesis - now that some of us suddenly feel old, some kind words to bring back the memories. ;)

Enjoy CAG!
I think the decision to make a PSP Valkyria game in Japan was (as the interviews mention) largely to try and raise awareness of the brand and reach out to a wider potential group of people. PSP is crazy popular over there, and given SEGA's success with Phantasy Star Portable in Japan recently...
Updated does not necessarily mean completely rehauled. :) Wait a bit and see what other info comes out...
I've wanted to talk about this news ever since I first heard that there was a sequel being made in Japan (long before the DLC hit here in the states.) Stoked to finally see word of the...
If anyone is near California or going to San Diego Comic-con, we're going to be sponsoring some Valkyria Chronicles cosplay!
I've got some rare Valkyria Figurines and the last few copies of the pre-order Art books to give out - pictures and details here!
You guys here at CAG have always been a...
