Interview
--If 358/2 Days was emphasizing Xion, then was Birth by Sleep emphasizing Aqua?
Nomura: Aqua's battle scenes were exhibited for the first time to the public, her movement is fast and easy to overlook. So that you don't lose sight of her, concentrate and try to keep your eyes on her. Frankly speaking, since its hard to see clearly, she is teleporting in the battle scenes. Because the teleportation occurs instantaneously, it's hard to catch sight of. (Laughs)
--This promotional video seems to take a different direction from the previous ones.
Nomura: In the promotional videos until now, we wanted to explain what kind of a game it is, but this time we wanted to focus on the development of the story line. To everyone who watches it, I hope that you have gained interest in the story. The demo is available at the NTT DoCoMo booth, so stop by it if you can. The file in the demo is clear, so you can play from the beginning.
