Heh, good memories, Presteamed. I don't own the Japanese MA, but I've perused it, along with the rest of the pocket-sized line. (I like the size, but good luck getting those to lie open flat on the game table...)

I think I vaguely recall the narrators too. I wonder whether it's really necessary to change the text format so much, as the publishers (Kadowaka, IIRC) seem to feel; must entail a lot of extra time and expense!

I have an old Japanese version of the book. It is paperback novel-sized, and has some flat manga illustrations, as well as the usual annoying ditzy sister and goody two-shoes brother act that narrate most Japanese RPG books. It is probably way different from the English version - I remember there was more art and interesting sidebar information.
