This one will never make it stateside right? Unless Bleach gets aired on Cartoon Network or something, right? That sucks... cuz i'm allergic to japanese writing =(

Bleach does air on Cartoon Network

Actually, most of the menus are in English. The conversations are japanese, of course. I think they don't matter THAT much in the game, though :)
(And if you already know the anime show, you've most likely seen the cutscenes already anyways)

@ Leingold:
Bleach IS on Cartoon Network. I think it's on Sat. late night. Not sure exactly because my DVR does all the hard work there.

I don't see how they won't include Ishida, he's been in the every single other Heat the Soul game. And looking over the character lists they just get bigger with each game.

I start caring about Bleach games when Uryu is announced.

No Uryu=No deal

I got the first one for about $20, but i was sorely dissappointed when it only had 6 characters.

I've been thinking about importing the 3rd one but maybe I'll wait for this one to come out. Lookin pretty sweet there.

Thnx im a big fan of bleach and im happy to find out that heat the soul 4 is based on the manga!!

I'm pretty sure they'll include the 33 characters from HtS 3 as well as the 6 (so far) new ones, Ishida will be there.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to import the game onto the psp like would i have to buy the JPN version and import that then would it play on my aussie psp or would i need a chip or soemthing to play the game

I wouldn't Exactly count on them announcing all the characters from previous games. It would be too tedious, since their planning on over 70 characters.
