It's only with the product info for the version with the drama CD, I think. I tried looking for the others at the other 2 sites but no luck. :/ Beefy Adol still scares me. :(

Aaaah! I was trying to find bigger versions of those card pictures too! ....Especially this one. Since it looked so... odd. X'D In that small size. ..........Adol still looks odd. XDDDD But I want these phone cards!!!!!!! *the mad card collecting freak within awakens~!* Also, Tia looks very un-Tia-like with the dark hair. (......why am I getting a feeling that she'll be the 'maiden' for Adol in this one? :'D I mean.... she's blue?!)

Yeah, Tia is obviously the Lilia from Ys II/IV, the Elena from Ys III, the Niena from Ys V etc..

By the way, what's up with all those scars? I mean, they are expected to be seen in a warrior just like Adol, but this is not the first time he has been seen without a shirt, armor and stuff, and he never had scars. I always knew it was mostly for marketing reasons, so... well, I was surprised to see him with scars there. Also, I think he (and maybe his team) is caught by soldiers (Romun?) or something, and instead of being in a jail, he's used as a gladiator. *thinks of Seiken Densetsu 1* He will eventually escape somehow. Maybe Dogi will crush some walls out there to get him out, or some people (Tia and Co.?) will manage to create an opportunity for him to escape somehow.

Indeed! That's SD1's name when it got released in the US shores. There's also its GBA remake, Sword of Mana. I'm pretty confident it will be very similar.

*random bad-attempts-at-story-guessing time* Adol and Dogi get thrown into jail for being seen around Tia, who hath some relation or the other to the Five Dragons and goddesses (or gods, or the whole pantheon~ :'D [relation to gods = blue hair! (Hey.... what does Tia's page say about her anyways?)]) and soon after are brought forth to the random evil ruler of Altago~ And is forced to fight for Dogi's freedom. Or something. And so gets a Dogi-like body~ X'D Under the apprenticeship of Dogi! And Tia frets. And falls in love in true chosen maiden fashion~ ... Hey! My google translations show that the last pic is a.... book card? ....Bookmark?! (I want that!!!!! T__T) Are they giving these cards out in different pre-orders from different other shops, as it was with Ys Chronicles, or is this just one shop giving out all this?

xD I see. Yeah, I also used to be a Mana nut, but since Squaresoft "fused" with Enix, I lost faith in the series. And in the whole company.

I miss Enix... and the old twig-esque Adol. :<

I really doubt it. XD But sure, it's possible. I mean, c'mon, Darm didn't even SCRATCH Adol, but some gladiating did? xD Seriously. XD

Hm, well, Cleria is serious business, yeah. xD
Though I'm not so confident about the Battle Armor. xD (Ys III) Or whatever trash-bin he uses as armor in Ys V. xD

Incidentally, just in case anyone cared, Falcom seem to be making sure to advertise this again. Unlike with Brandish I haven't seen any ads on the Yamanote line this time, but there's two Ys Seven ads on the Rinkai Line, the main one used for Comiket... so let's just say a lot of people are gonna see them over the next 3 days.

Hmmm...
Falcom is really placing all their effort in Ys SEVEN, no damn doubt.
I think Ys SEVEN will be another "Ys IV" in said terms, if you know what I mean.

Spotted them! The Ys 7 ads are indeed also on the Yamanote line, right above some of the doors.
Also, it's a really major line, probably the busiest in Japan. There are usually new trains every 3 minutes with tons of carriages that even then get mostly full right up until 1AM. The only other game-related ads I've seen on there have been ones for the Wii, so they can't have come cheap.
