Ahoy, mateys! Another Etrian Odyssey 3 trailer has surfaced

I'm a big, big fan of the Etrian Odyssey series (aka Yggdrasil Labyrinth in Japan), so it should go without saying that I've been drooling non-stop since Atlus announced Etrian Odyssey III: Visitor From Star Ocean a few months ago.

That drooling intensified after I watched the following trailer, the second to be released for the forthcoming (it'll hit Japanese store shelves on April 1) title:



A bit of background for those of you (like me) who don't understand a lick of Japanese: This time around, the game takes place in (and around, apparently) the ancient seaside city of Amroad. A hundred years ago, a massive earthquake demolished the central part of the city. An elaborate labyrinth appeared in its wake--and has attracted adventurers ever since.

Note to self: Assuming this title is, like its predecessors, released stateside, pick it up ASAP (as opposed to waiting until it's scalped on eBay for two or three times its original MSRP).
