Thank you people for this, I'll try to keep updated with your progress, it's really nice to see such love for this game.
This game is one of the reasons I tried (and failed) learning japanese 6 years ago, I own the JP only PS4 disc. Thanks to that blog's translation I was able to have some fun, but I didn't enjoy playing it blindly without the freedom of customizing stuff the way I wanted.
I'm now learning japanese again, this time I'm more serious, not worried about how many years it's going to take. I still want to, someday, fully understand and enjoy this game.
Good luck!!!
