Hopefully they won't remove this from the inevitable US release of the game. Drumming up support for Negima like this would totally help here!

They'll edit it. Either they'll remove it completely, make it some "Downloadable content for $9.95!!/Gamestop Exclusive Pre-Order Perk", or strip it of it's identity in favor of something more "Americanized."

It shouldn't be that much of licensing problem for the US. Funimation is open to doing stuff like this (see the Eva movie stuff in Phantasy Star Portable 2), and Kodansha is in charge of the US manga now.

Well....you also have the fact that the Gaming Industry in the USA isn't too keen on JRPG's as of late. Heck, Resident Evil creator Shinji Mikami even thinks so as well.

...That's like a pro-baseball player commenting on the state of soccer
