From the General Discussion thread:

The Replay Theater theme came from Overture, which was one of Daisuke's more varied and bigger budget (if overproduced IMHO) soundtracks.

Correction:

Say, what if in order to keep Sin's Gear nature hidden (and to avoid questions about a missing eye in long-term), Ky asked Faust to surgically switch their left eyes with each other? Ky might have gotten his Gear powers from the left eye over the years.

Bedman:

I really hoped that they would also throw in the X versions of the themes as well, a shame.

Okay, now that I heard Ram's voice, I have to ask something that was bothering me for the while: Japan's way for making emotionless/expressionless girls is to simply use the naturally softest voice possible and simply keep withing that range, while the American/English way is to try to make it sound as intentionally artificial and/or bored as possible. Why is there such a difference?

I feel stupid for not noticing something so obvious, but Elphelt looks like an original Valentine from Overture.

Doesn't bother me, because the real life is even weirder. Many years ago I saw on TV a family of three, a burly circus Strong Man and his wife and daughter, and he was not a main attraction, it was his scrawny 9-to-11 year old daughter who could hold both her parents up, with extra weights. Compared to that an 18 year old May lifting an anchor is nothing special.

I was under the impression that Jam claiming the bounty and Johnny adopting Dizzy into the crew, while not related to each other by themselves, were both arranged by Ky to protect Dizzy from the bounty hunters. Probably a fanon that just makes sense.

How about using the actual Ishiwatari art?: He looks way older than 16.

Rest in Peace and condolences to his family and friends.

http://shoryuken.com/2014/10/02/justice-to-make-appearance-alongside-newcomer-leo-in-guilty-gear-xrd-sign-s-story/ Apparently, that Famitsu scan mentions Justice being alive, at least according to the translation on SRK; It might be the Commander Gear herself, her clone, or it is another Valentine wearing something similar to that GG2 Justice-look-a-like Armor that the original Valentine had.

Nothing new; On another note, TGS begins exactly next month, so lets hope ARC will give us some new info there.

CP is a latest addition to the established, relatively risk-free cashcow, and it took roughly 1 year and a half to get that many new characters. P4A2U is an update to a successful fighter spin-off of the more popular game in the more popular genre and is funded by Atlus, so ARC have more cash to spend, and are under stricter obligation to release stuff on time. Xrd is an effectively a reboot of the franchise that was on the backburner, using development methods that according to those articles, while having very lucrative long-term benefits for the small studio like Arc, is a bitch to do in short-term, and for all intents and purposes a gamble to see if it works.
