*phews* Big update tonight. Lots of stuff to catch up on.
Lastminute twitter update!
Falcom has been making reminders for people to check out the Dengeki Maoh issue on 4/27. While I was writing this post, they restated for the Sora no Kiseki fans to check out the issue when it’s released.
Could this issue have our much desired Legend of Heroes VII information? Let’s hope!

Sora no Kiseki manga chapter 7 released
Yomban has released chapter 7 of the Sora no Kiseki manga. On Olivier’s birthday too~ (His birthday is 4/1)
Great issue- especially if you like Olivier. He’s up to his usual wacky hijinks. :D
Ys Manga Chapter 05 Out
Chapter 5 of the Ys manga is out.
Also, note, that the Yahoo Comics site also supports Firefox and browsers other than just IE.
Yay!
Twitter Activity
Falcom posted a pair of photos on Twitter recently.
First is the calendar for 2010-2011 that will be packaged with Felghana PSP. The calendar usually has pages that may be hints of what is to come during the year, as Ys Seven was in the 09-10 calendar, and Sora no Kiseki the 3rd suddenly popped up in the calendar before that.
(sorry for the large images, guys.)
By the looks of the photo, this is what I figure:
First (April): Oath in Felghana – The new artwork. The one that’s shown at the top.
Second (May): Ys I-II Chronicles
Third (June): Sora no Kiseki AC Drama CD cover
Fourth (July): Ys vs Sora no Kiseki
Fifth (August): Ys Seven Artwork (That’s definitely Maya)
Sixth (September): ED7 – Lloyd
Seventh (October): –I think this is the Ouroboros Report cover.
Eighth (November): That looks like Aisha from Ys Seven
Ninth (December): ED7 – Definitely Elie (yay!)
Tenth (January): Ys I-II Drama CD cover
Eleventh (Feburary): That… looks like Brandish artwork.
Twelvth (March): Looks like more Ys artwork. Don’t recognize the style of the image.
(I’ll make it no secret that the pages for Legend of Heroes VII make me very happy. Now, will we learn the subtitle for the game along with the calendar?)
The second photo is of the bonus CDs that will be released with Oath in Felghana PSP. The JDK special that will be released with Falcom’s store, and the X68000 soundtrack that is released with Amazon’s presales.

Oath in Felghana PSP Site Updated
Small update, but awesome item. Falcom posted a gameplay trailer from Oath in Felghana. I was excited about it, but seeing this reminded me just how much I love the game and makes me want to play it with the voices and changes in it.
See the video below:

The new update to the top site is very minor. Mostly cosmetic and the way the news feed scrolls onto the page. It also has a new banner of information just above the news frame. The event icons to the right have also been slightly rearranged.
