Has anyone played Shadow Hearts 2? (JAP)

I can read all the Kanji's, and know the basic hiragana and katakana, and from that I can guess what the story is mainly about.

Shadow Hearts 2 's storyline is... post World War I (year 1915), and the background... well, it was difficult for me because I've never played Shadow Hearts 1...

However, the story, characters, graphics, music are great. It has a similar battle system to that of Grandia, with a nifty combo system implanted.

The characters are mostly unique, for instance, the "hero" (anti-hero..) of the story has a special morph systems which he can turn into different ...Monster? (Fire/Ice/Wind/Dark/Earth/Air) and he has his special Souls meter which is needed for upgrading the individual element.

Blah blah blah...
