There's a drawing for hand-signed artwork with preorders of the DHE Series Special Edition on Amazon.
Four, to be exact.

oooooo

Not buying this unless dual language is confirmed though. :(

Some freebies like Character Illustration I think.

The soundtrack has really pretty art.

All of the art I've seen so far is pretty. Hits exactly my taste-

I ordered this from Play-asia.com. I couldn't figure out Amazon.jp.

Is there a strategy guide or something I can buy?

Just some random info, some of which may or may not be new to people.

-There are three difficulty levels in Kitten, Easy and Normal available from the start, and there's definitely the exact amount of space left on the screen to slide in another one after hard.
-Each enemy has two types of bullets.
-Speaking of enemies, there's a built-in bestiary.
-Faces are done by Sunaho, illustrations (body shots) are done by the artist for RiviWSC (and no it's not a surprise they're not horrible if you look at earlier sketches for RiviWSC character art).
-Items last a limited amount of time, like in past Dept. Heaven games. I believe it's a per-battle basis like Yggdra Union.
-I have seen the final boss, and the game over screen for said final boss.
-There are definitely optional battles.
-I've heard just about every song on the soundtrack now. wtf Sting.

Heh, yeah. When I read the Designer's Works, I was stunned by how amazingly beautiful the sketches of the main characters looked like. They all looked even better than Sunaho Tobe's drawings! I wonder why that was the case when the drawings of the NPCs and enemies (Isher and Lindwurm aside) were all that awfully wonky, or the in-game character portraits.


What, how? Do you have access to secret St!ng archives or something? D:

That's a terrible thing to say! :O
No, yes, what I just cut out of your post is it, but I'd rather not have people see it until Sting posts it, for the hope alone that they'll edit it a bit so you're not spoiled the final boss. :/

Actually, I don't think it's THE final boss, but it's still pretty damn near to the end.

I dunno, there were an awful lot of special-looking enemies...

I just checked the KitN site. It now has updated info on the soundtrack, and two links in there that assume if I dug into them I might find some more samples. Is that it?

No.
I posted it just for OST, not for screens - maybe they are spoilers but I don't know Japanese :)

That is crazy if you read everything. :( SO MANY THOUGHTS NOW.

Damn beautiful soundtrack o.o
Although I wish they release those sample after they released the game, the screenshots were kinda spoilerific x.x
