The anime FG community has advanced to a new form, dropping games
even before they've come out.
Apparently there's also some issue where owners of the US and JP version of the game can't play each other? Sounds like a patch mismatch, but it also looks like the two releases may be split (my trophies from the JP version didn't switch over to English, like they do for most (but not all) imports) which would be some real bullshit if true.
