I guess Star Leap (hopefully there will be PC version too) can be considered as Suikoden 6, but I really wish we would one day get title which reveals secret of Sindar, and also set in Harmonia.

In trailer there is Viki, young Flik, and that girl flicking her hair is Odessa, I think...

- That being said, Suikoden 2 anime is a wonderful news (for some reason I think Junichi Suwabe would be great a Luca), and overall I am simply glad that this is all, after all these years, the beginning of something big for Suikoden in general. Very Happy

Okay, I was expecting something, just not a Suikoden anime. I vote for Toshiyuki Morikawa and Crispin Freeman as Luca Blight

Quite the Suikoden resurgence going on these days. I just hope they use the same music for the Suikoden II anime, as I personally think it's one of the best soundtracks of any JRPG. Also, maybe throw in some little Easter Eggs referring to part I or Suikogaiden in there, too. Seeing McDohl or Nash in the background would be rad.

I guess Konami actually cares about Suikoden if it's getting an honest to God anime as opposed to a Netflix series. Suikoden II is easily the best one so it makes sense to make an anime out of that. I do wonder how it'll turn out though. I hope it's not too watered down and actually covers everything. Luca Blight's insanity and mercilessness has to be preserved to showcase why he's one of the best video game villains of all time.

The mobile game has nice graphics but if it's a gacha game I'm not really all that interested.
