Had an article about the second Columns game and ST3. The ST3 article was an interview with the producers. I was planning to sit down and translate the questions and answers but from what I skimmed, question 28 is probably of greatest interest. That being "Will the Hanagumi members of Teito be appearing?" To which the answer was "If I was to say that their appearances were at an end, the cast would get mad at me wouldn't they? So, of course, they will be appearing." To what extent was not explained in detail. More screen shots of the Columns sequel and glimpses at some of the stories. In Reni's story, the canine mascot seems to have run away. In Iris' story, her teddy bear vanishes. In Sumire's story, she seems to have lost some of her memory of recent events, which Kohran seems to think can be solved with a sharp blow to the head with a mallet. Kohran's story is a bit over the top, as it seems that Kayama accidentally fell victim to a malfunction of Kohran's latest invention and seems to have switched minds with Sakura. I found the picture of Sakura with Kayama's guitar hilarious. "Sakura no karada wa ii na," says he. The release date for Hanagumi Columns 2 is January 6, 2000. Apparently the first product of Sakura Project 2000. Orlando de la Cruz
