Though the story feels flat and the graphics stutter a bit, as a mechanical construct and mental exercise, it's quite enjoyable. 20-minute no-holds-barred manas-to-the-wall boss fights are well and good (especially in this combat system), but one wants a little more plot buildup to such scrums. Still, despite its apparent shallowness, Mana Khemia 2 does just about everything else right. And I'm fine with that."
Atelier Escha & Logy: Alchemists of the Dusk Sky will include a code to download Mana Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy as a first print bonus.
More than certain that Sony will use their cloud service for BC, so would very much like to see games like this on it as well as the current PSN.
Gust will re-release Mana Khemia 2: Fall of Alchemy as a downloadable PS2 Classic in Japan.

While most JRPG's attempt to make epic stories that have you saving the world and learning important life lessons along the way Gust is much happier making cute silly little stories with just a touch of raunchy humor. The first Gust game I reviewed was Ar Tonelico 2, which was a great game except for an unfortunate localization job and extremely dated visuals that brought the title down to being average overall. Has Mana Khemia 2 faired any better?"
